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...

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

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.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
