The Dees will face the Pies in the Qualifying Final at the MCG with the winner playing at Home in the Preliminary Final. All eyes will be on the Medical Room as Jake Melksham was subbed out of the match with what looked like a serious knee injury and both Bayley Fritsch and Jake Bowey came from the ground at time with what looked like serious complaints but then both returned. Tom McDonald kicked 5 goals and Brodie Grundy 3 in Casey's massive 101 point win over North Melbourne in the VFL Wildcard Final.

Who comes in and who goes out?

Bring it on!!

Hibbo and T Mac 

in for Milkshake and Bowey?

we need a big target to take pressure off JVR. and hibbo was made for finals 

Other than the colour of your shorts, are there any advantages to the ‘home’ team when it’s a home ground to both of them..?

Do Collingwood get a higher ticketing allowance?

 

Hope we win 

Out: Melksham (if injured) 
in: TMac

The colour of your jumper? We'll have to don the royal blue if recent encounters is anything to go by, even though there really is no clash at all

Hibberd for Bowey potentially?

Sadly I think it will be melksham out and we will bring tmac in. 

Laurie for Chandler?

Do Casey play next week.

Hibberd must be a chance, how’d he go today?

It’s too early. I’m off to toast our top 4 finish.

I think he's still in concussion protocol?

Yes... against Bulldogs

Will be interesting to see if we play TMac, Tomlinson and Laurie in that match. After the Fritsch scare they won't dare play him

Spargo's game at Casey was just okay. Jordon was arguably BOG

Good to get another look at Grundy. Didn't watch the match but he went ok from what Ive heard.

When are tickets on sale?

Can’t see Grundy getting a go unfortunately for him

Especially first half I felt the fwds had no leading patterns. Can’t remember how many kicks were squeezed down the pocket because there wasn’t anything decent and Smith and JVR weren’t providing much presence. T-Mac has got to come in, and I think smith would have been the man out before melkshams knee.  
 

I liked turners game, so hope he sticks around, though hibberd would be an upgrade. Wait and see around Bowie obviously. 
 

IN: T Mac, Hibbo

OUT: Melk, Disco

I don't think they'll play Tomlinson

Absolutely no way Hibbo is coming back into the team lol

Gutted for melksham that looked really bad

TMac in smithy supersub, ?
don’t think turner did enough to stay in so hibbo a good chance

An absolute master class that included taps to players, taking the ball from the ruck, groundball follow up and of course 3 goals

Players are kicking down the door at Casey but so few slots available.

Hibberd is a Grunt perfect for finals but so is Tmac and Grundy.

No room unless Melksham is injured.

Goodwin will stick with the plan. Hes done it all season.
