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: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
