Petracca, Oliver, Viney... cliff.

That's our midfield depth.

Doesn't matter who we bring in for Oliver (if required), they will be substandard.

A legacy of Goodwin riding the same players into the ground year after year and not developing our other mids.

Dunstan can get the pill but not sure about ball use and speed - evidently, Goody recruited him to play for Casey anyway.

Hope Clarry pulls up ok.

I'm watching Tom Mitchell for Collingwood being a completely different player.

They were bad last year in clearences and went and brought Mitchell in to fix this.

Poor Luke Dunstan who's a clearence specialist gets 42 disposal and 2 goals in a VFL game and Goody still refuses to play him because he's happy sticking with the same soliders each week who continue to get beaten around the stoppages.

    Extremely tough break if Ralph is correct. Someone needs to step up now and time to dig in deep Demons.

    The fact is no one will replace Oliver, and we have cover. The club may need to rethink our midfield set up. Sparrow, JJ, Harmes, Kozy (more time in the midfield may give him some form), Rivers, Brayshaw, Salem, ANB, Chandler, Dunstan etc etc can go through the midfield.

    I like the idea of a tagging midfield with our flankers/wingers providing the drive. Back to the early season form with those with good skills kicking and running through the opposition in to a forward line that leads to the ball carrier. 
     

    Stop the continuous long kick down the line including kick ins.

    I mean who am I to be dramatic or negative, but I feel like I’m just going to come out and say it. 
    We are cooked.

    Next month will be a shambles and a window into the next few years unless Goodwin wakes the [censored] up and recruits another top mid in trade period.

    There are 16 players who have plenty of room to lift 25-90% each!

    And even if they lift by 845% they still won’t reach Clarry’s level of talent, skills or importance to our side.

    Injuries happen. He is so durable and he will weeks in the middle of a season. The best time if we are to be a contender.

    Also, can we just go and hunt the footy?

    Why couldn’t this happen during our stretch of playing cellar dwellers? Why now?

    "Could be sidelined for up to a month" says Ralph.

    Let's wait for something a bit more definitive from the club.  It might not be the catastrophe some are fearing.

    Yep classic click bait. No doubt he's getting scans but this reads like a complete guess by Johnny boy.

    Why the f did he get the green light to go back out there in Q4?

    Own goal by us if it's significant

    It sounds like we've already gotten the scans back.

    Why didn’t we ‘manage’ our best players during that period?

    More rhetorical questions…

    Why did he even go back on? I would rather risk Bowey blowing a calf, than Oliver getting a grazed pinky.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
