It’s their first year of senior footy. Get a grip.

Both coming from a long way back in terms of fitness. 
Jefferson is 6kg soaking wet playing as a key forward.

Sestan and Jefferson not giving much to get excited about 

Sestan has been ok in and under in the midfield and kicked a miracle goal. I’d hate to be any forward for Casey today, our kicking into 50 has been appalling. No chance. The one decent kick we’ve had in the second half Jeffo marked but shanked the kick on goal. I wouldn’t write them off based on today.

I've liked Howes game today.

He still couldn’t be sub or the carry over emergency if he played a full game for Casey. Can’t front up two hours later for an AFL match. 

Agreed but Chookrat suggested that he flew up as sub. I merely clarified that he was at the venue regardless.

Gee this is the worst defending I’ve seen from a Casey team in many a year. Lost their DNA a bit this year from games I’ve seen. 


A total lack of pressure. Smith under no pressure kicks 15m over the head of a leading forward. 1 GC against 4 Casey players. GC player naturally takes the mark. What is going on?

Goal to Melksham but the floodgates have opened and it’s too late - 112 to 84

Maybe not - Joel Smith gets his second.

What would you like me to grip?

Your head. If you’ve watched any Casey this year (evidently not) you’d know these two guys have shown more than most young kids do early. Guess you’re one of those blokes who like to make a criticism no matter what though, hey?!

And that’s after putting on nearly 12 kgs since last year.

The commentator just said his turnover inside 50 was his first mistake today. He’s had 17 touches and I’m almost certain 16 have been terrible. 

Correct.

Those two clowns commentated to amuse themselves.

I think I heard a pearler from them, when one said, " I think the best way to get a clearance is to have the ball" and then another was " when kicking for goal it's best to kick accurately".

Getting back to White, I have never seen him play worse or kick worse. Hopefully it was just a bad day.

I thought our best were Laurie, Howes, Woey and Tomlinson.

How are TMac and BBB going?

a minor train wreck

Could have won if we kicked straight but the forward set up was dysfunctional. As usual too much forward pocket delivery. Attacking players not willing to cut back to the centre hot spot 35 out. Forwards rarely on the lead

Laurie and Spargo had decent games

Well, in reality both statements are true. Lol

And where does that game plan come from?

 

I suspect White may have had some 2nd game soreness/blues guys after a long layoff and clean out of that knee.

Maybe a bit of strength and match fitness / conditioning lacking.

Remembering that most players who come into a season off a knee or something that's held em back from a normal full pre-season usually don't perform at their usual standards in some or more games on their return.

We are witnessing a little of this imv with May at the moment.  Fingers crossed he's on the up and up though.

White might need to be managed (off the bench for alot less game time?) at some point depending on how he pulls up today.

Might be best not to judge him too harshly today given the above.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • 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?
