    Loved the passion and effort Moose brought to Casey. Will be missed, big loss for Casey. Wish him well at Cora Lynn.

    Imagine lining up in the West Gippsland Footy League and having to take on the Moose? 

    Massive loss for Casey. Heart and soul of that club.

    Didn't he enjoy that 2022 premiership!

    Go with our blessing, Moose.

    The sort of bloke you'd love to have as a team mate.  Thanks Moose. Glad you got that well deserved flag.

    Very sad to see the Moose leave Casey. He's been an absolute warrior!

    All the best Jimmy.

    Would not have enjoyed his last game. The way the VFL competition is run is farcical and an insult to players like Munro who give their heart and soul every week of the season that’s not interrupted by yet another bye or the withdrawal of half of the team’s best players because of fixturing issues created from above.

    Moose certainly DID NOT enjoy his last game, and didn’t make a secret of how angry he was about this. He wears his heart on his sleeve and is as loyal and dedicated as they come, so who can blame him.

    Him & White were the glue down at Casey.

    Talk about blood and guts.

    Sounds like he wasn't happy at all with the final game.

    A pretty ordinary ending to the season at both levels for us it would seem.

    Will be sorely missed.  Was a thorn in every other club's side.

    Goody luck Jimmy and thanks for the amazing efforts & memories plus the 22 Premiership year.

    Good luck James Moose Munro, sorry to see you go loved your stats moose tackles a huge feature, the boys would have walked taller in your shadow. The AFL should be disgusted with their handling and fixturing of the VFL competition total disgrace. Enjoy coaching and playing you will finally know who is playing next week.💕

    I wonder if I'll watch any VFL games next year now sans Moose.

    A huge loss for Casey. Will be sorely missed by his teammates and as for the fans, Moose was your quintessential cult hero. We have folks in the DA who follow VFL passionately and they’re so sad to hear he’s leaving. But apparently he loves his job as a paramedic and will continue doing that, he’s also thinking of starting a little family with moose babies running around everywhere 😁🥰 It’s great to know he’ll be happy post-Casey.

    Stunts like pulling half the team out just do not work in the longer term...the wrong message and culture pervades the whole group.

    • 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.
