Now that it’s been said to be made up, it still makes sense for both parties.

Bruce is better at AFL level than Weid, Mitch Brown & Joel Smith (Forward). He’d arguably be the same, if not better, output than BB with our current game plan.

All that’s left is Fritta and Kossie and he’s not taking their roles.

He’ll also be dropping down the pecking order at the dogs with Naughton, Ugle-Hagan & Lobb fighting for the big-man roles. I’m not including Darcy, who could also be down there.

He can be 1st or 2nd forward with us or 3rd or 4th forward with the dogs - no brainer for Bruce

    Of course Josh Bruce could be on a  'pathfinder' mission for Naughton.

     

     

     

    Bruce is a gateway player

    You didn't see Weid in the Casey jumper near the end of the year Smith or Harmes are not tall enough to compete in AFL even Smith's jumping would not be impactful. 
    That's why we will keep a Weid for rucking as the SC and Goody don't share your views about our second stringers. 

    You're assuming a few things. 1. that l didn't see Weid in the VFL where he was a touch more competative but still not AFL standard and 2. That the ruck needs to win tap outs when in fact you don't if you set up right and have an extra onballer at ground level like Harmes. Weid is old news

    Not even for 5 minutes. The only exciting bit about it was discovering that it wasn’t true.

    I mentioned that you may have missed it because of your poor judgement. Weid has improved his competitiveness in the ruck and most Casey and /L ers agreed his work in the last half of the season mostly on his own was both his best and most impactful with the packs and round the ground. 

    No One  in their right mind would go in with Harmes and Joel Smith as AFL rucks less the ground was an absolute bog. Yes setting up right is vital but goes both ways either your taps or opponents do why not get your own as well.

    Your assessment of Weids contribution in the ruck to Casey Demons Flag is both insulting and inaccurate in view of the whole hearted effort and absolute attitude plus improvement that he produced in  the last  half a season.

    Absolutely not wasted. Diverted my attention from the Jacko thread for 10 minutes. A blessing in fact.

    I’m a conspiracy theorist and I believe there is a better-than-bad chance Peter Bell jumped onto BF and made the Josh Bruce rumour up.  He’s managed to find a way into the head of every Melbourne and Doggies supporter this trade period so he thought he’d just find another way to play with our minds.

    Pretty much the only thing Bellend has done that's worked :-)

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
