    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

    • 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.
