    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

CASEY: Rd 05 vs Richmond

Smashed around the contest through the middle.  No spark at ground level at all.

Moodie looks too slow for this level also.

Shane not playing last quarter. Running around the boundary warming down. Not injured. Big smile on his dial. I’m no expert but I think they’ve seen enough and he’ll be DEBUTING NEXT WEEK!!! 🥳

Not for me, I get really good quality. I suggest you at least give it a try. 

You're talking about screen mirroring from a phone yes? It's not terrible but definitely not 720p. Nothing to sneeze at if one isn't fussed with quality but I can't even watch AFL in standard definition most of the time. 

Would definitely prefer the laptop plugged in to TV method.

Tiggers appeared  to have the more balanced side. Looked quicker and had much more cohesive teamwork all over the ground.

You'd think with Ben Brown out of the AFL you'd give him a proper rest and let Jefferson try and own the forward 50, instead its the land of the lanky talls with Schache, Brown and Jefferson all running to the same spot.

No need to apologise. I’ve never be a fan. Not sure he’ll be on our list next year.

100% agree. Gets plenty of possessions but is so slow to move the ball on. And his disposal isn't great either.

Fullarton, McAdam and Hore are the only ones pressing for selection.

Thanks BBB for the memories of the 2021 flag, but you are not physically capable at VFL level, let alone AFL.

Overall, we lack depth and have very little in reserve.

Hore is not a good enough kick for AFL.

Fullarton played a good game and got a lot of the ball but there is nothing in his game that screams AFL. He is not a strong enough forward to play against AFL defenders and not big enough for the ruck.

Jefferson takes a decent mark when he gets a jump at it, but so incredibly poor in his second efforts that he will never be an AFL player. He is a dumb footballer in terms of positioning and does not work hard enough in defence.

Sestan has some elite traits and is improving with his better endurance. Still 2025 project at best due to his running capacity.

Kynan Brown has AFL level intensity but is too small this year.

McAdam is clearly AFL standard but not fit enough yet.

Tholstrop did little to get excited about.

AMW has some good traits but not sure he has enough to make it.

Definitely

It did none of them any good... and add in Fullarton

Was pretty much won and lost in the middle as well as our inbalance up forward.

Two too many KFs, two of which were completely ineffective both aerially and at ground level.

Playing all four of Jeffo, Fullo, BBB & Shack in the same team is a recipe for a likely loss except against very low hanging fruit.

Moniz wasted down back imho... again!

Moodie looked super slow and nowhere near it today and wasn't helped by a few of the other regular Casey crew.

He's not getting his place back anytime soon that's for sure.

Great commentary guys. I’d given up on any chance of Fullerton making the grade given the numerous negative assessments leading up to this game.

Licking my lips at the thought of McAdam and Kosi lighting up the ‘G sooner rather than later.

Fullarton isn’t strong enough or quick enough IMO.

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.
