very poor after quarter time

[KC from Casey 7,117]

All over … another bad loss for the Casey Demons who lacked the big men to go with the Magpies and struggled after a dominant start when they kicked the first five goals of the game.

They had a mature key forward who kicked 5.

We looked like midgets.

Killed in the air.

Couldn’t kick straight at any stage.

Best player for Pies, N.Jetta.

No one likes a loss but I think there were a few "learnings" from that match.

The fringe is still a way off I'm afraid. Schache is unfortunately a bust despite many of us wishing otherwise.

Weideman would be playing footy with JVR this year

Need to question what was the purpose of Shache, didn’t watch the game, was he injured as no goals, there is reason why he’s at a 3rd club 

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Did Ben Brown play?

[chook fowler 19,565]

Deakin Smith has been really disappointing this year. Not sure what his future is. Seems to lack confidence

[stinga 586]

If you can't kick straight you can't win games.

No bulk in the defensive half.

The only melbourne players that look like they will play AFL to me are

Farris White (leap and height) probably 2 years

Jefferson (height, marking and kicking) probably next year

Howes (height, leaping, running, handball receives, kicking) probably next year but might get a game this year.

The rest don't show enough or have been tried and found wanting at the next level.  Maybe Verell might improve, and Sestan lost 10 kgs.

Of the unlisted players I thought Shepperd showed a bit, but didn't get enough of it.

[Bang Bang Bang 5,839]

Anyone who thought Schache was going to be John Coleman for us were always going to be disappointed. We only got him on the cheap as insurance which thankfully we haven’t had to tap into much so far. Exactly the same as what Weideman was bringing us. 

[bing181 9,330]

With injuries + suspension was always going to be hard. No Turner or Tomlinson down back, no Smith, BBB or Tom Mac up forward. Even Harnes generally goes well at this level. We missed the AFL players.

I don’t think anyone on here thought the Shack would turn into John Coleman.

Because he should be in the AFL team.

[Ugottobekidding 1,194]

Not sure the negativity about Jefferson, it's his first year... There is no rush to get him into seniors.

He’s injured  

[deanox 9,989]

I haven't watched Casey play this year and would appreciate the thoughts of anyone who has regarding Jefferson.

He has kicked 14 goals in 11 games this year, but not been named in the best players yet. I feel that a knack for finding goals is a good trait for a forward, even if he isn't earning them the traditional way (contested marks etc). Wondering how we think he is developing?

Was he a mystery injury withdrawal? I don't think he is a listed injury is he? And he has played recent weeks with Casey.

He should...but his body isnt playing ball...sadly.

Not sure what lays in his footy future 🥴

[Fat Tony 5,276]

I’m not convinced Jefferson has the ground game or intensity for AFL. I think he’s a long shot and was a bad pick.

Laurie is too slow and small. 

Howes is the closest to AFL and will be a player.
