Feel like May has looked hindered this season, particularly bending to pickup a ground ball. Might be time for a rest this week?

No Lewis is too good. 

May will be needed  Petty also possibly.

    I also think the oppo's are really doing well to curb May's influence... Our defensive setup behind the ball has been our 1-wood for a few years now and so its not unexpected that our opponents go to school on us. I do wander how we will fair if Petty eventually goes back behind the ball.

    Thanks Kev

    Was JVR there in good spirits, or was he nursing a severely injured bicep with which he tried to murder that GW$ guy??

    Do you mean the GWS guy that was playing for the Suns?

    Yes, looked like a brainstorming session of more than 5 minutes, and Petty was into it. I'd say Petty is working out of the backline, or at least the swing man.

    All the "Petty has to go back to defence" landers go...

    K.Turner and Verrall, have been increasing their work load, Kyle more so than Verrall.

    I have forgotten - why did we recruit Verrall? How big is he? Thanks

    Was told that Harmes was sick today, don’t know severity, may impact selection?

    A few of us from the Demon Army bumped into Sparrow and his mum and gf at a kebab place after the game.  Maybe the team ate some troublesome street meat?!

    Chaplin said Rivers was sick prior to the game, could be some sort of bug running through the club at the moment.

    Played well for being unwell. Measure of a pretty good player.

    Will showed a bit in the pre season games and I was very keen to see him in Casey colours. Shame he has had an interrupted season as he looks quite promising.

    Ruck and possibly even develop as a key forward is his chance. Can take a mark, looks pretty mobile and he is a decent size for his age.

    Where did you find the training info? Or did you just show up knowing they train the same time roughly each week?

    I'm looking to go Wednesday morning at Gosch's but the club website is showing April 23 as the last advertised session. Any tips on what time I should show up?

    Yes, just guess work.

    They have been having their main run out at Casey, usually at 9.30 am, 3 days before the game day (Wednesday this week).

    The next one at Gosch's is the captain's run, the day before the game also at 9.30 am (Friday this week).

    They have a recovery run on Gosch's, usually Monday at 11.30 am.

    If last year was any indication, it's a hard no from me.

    Should play 2 to 3 Casey games and then come into the seniors. 

    I would say 2 or 3 Casey games and see how he goes.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
