    I see Tarryn Thomas is playing. Must have completed part four of his educational program. ‘I must remember it’s wrong to blackmail women.’

    BBB has to perform!!! 

    He's played his role at Casey the last few weeks NS.

    Barring a bad fail today, Goody needs to get him in imv with JVR and the other forwards / mids and finally settle on an approx 23.

    A little too much tinkering up forward,  through the middle (Kozzy, Jordon, Gus) and with Petty as an experimental forward.

    As Dazzle suggested, Bring in Disco to free up Lever to his usual and most effective role as interceptor vs taking the 2nd best D where he aint so good.  At least until Petty returns.

    Kozzy back to mostly crumbing pressure forward pls and FCS train him to get to the right spots more often.

    Settle the team into their usual 'strength roles' or we risk becoming a jack of all trades and will probably continue to be shakey up against the top 5 - 6 clubs who will play on these weaknesses and look to exploit them.

    At 666 we are lacking a class outside mid with some foot speed and one more extractor / heavy hitter inside.

    That last one might be Dunstan for Jordon / Sparrow but of course he is now out for a while.

    Dunstan almost the best user of the ball by hand at the club in traffic.  We desperately need a distributor in the clinches, especially at 666, who can handball further than a few feet.

    Dunstan can bring that release handball to outside receivers (Tracc/Lingers & Hunter) at stoppage which sees us changing lanes a little and giving different looks for forwards with the kick inside 50.

    The inside / outside could be Harmes but not sure where he's at and seems to have fallen out of favor with the FD till now?  Has played a few decent games at Casey and shown some form but does he fit any role in this team from here i wonder?

    It’s disappointing that Dunstan is out.  I’d be tempted to bring him in to help win or at least break even at clearances.  

    Dunstan had 5 games for us in 2022. We won four of them but I cannot recall him impacting the game. Most say he's too slow for AFL.

    Im not saying he's anywhere near this level but most also said that about Diesel as he made others around him look like millionaires with elite distribution by hand. The too slow talk quickly went out the door.

    Can we afford to bring Dunstan in off the bench as a mostly specialist 666 extractor/distributor?

    IMO, his limited ability to hit a target is the thing that keeps him out of the AFL side.

    Is Deakyn Smith worth a consideration for Jake Bowey?

    Is Bowey out for sure this week?

    Mitch White still struggling with his foot skills. First kick was out on the full and second was a scrubbing kick which bounced through players for a goal. It is hot early in this game.

    Mitch White played for Mansfield last week while Casey had the bye. As expected he was BOG.

    Nah I would have thought Sparrow would be the straight swap

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
