Great goal Windsor. I thought they changed the ruling on balls that hit the umpire, where if the ball was going to go through for a goal it would be a goal, but otherwise no change in the rules (the ball hitting the umpire is an act of god - play on).

I know he’s had little offseason but geez petty looks ordinary. Can’t mark, can’t kick, v slow. If we’re gonna sell him next year we’re going to need him to find his feet very soon. 

In disco we trust

Petty. Oh no no no no 

backline only 

I've never seen someone this out of form given so many games.

It's actually pretty cruel from the Coach to keep playing him in this state.

Needs a spell at Casey to find his mojo under alot less pressure and VFL level opponents.

May and Lever have been best on for mine, not playing on much of a forward line but kept us in it in the first half. Disco kicking 3 has been the difference. Langdon solid and Windsor came into it in the 3rd. Koz makes a massive difference to the forward line.

Petty can’t move, I think they’re hoping to run him into form but I think he needs to go behind the ball until he gets fitness and touch back. Billings needs the mids to be feeding him or he’s useless and he’s pretty hungry at the moment.

He is so clearly and unequivocally out of form on all metrics, it’s not even funny.

At the huge risk of getting ahead of myself and not wanting to jinx the team🤞to go on and have a big win would be excellent.  As  I'm sure all are aware the lower the opposition score the better the percentage. The % difference come the end of the season could be critical. Having said that I'll take any win atm!!

Several folk here need to book an appointment at SpecSavers. 

Jack Billings is one of the reasons we’re back in it.

Keep self-flagellating…

No way around it...he's lost our there at times and was totally missing last round.

He needs a mini-preseason, like Ben Brown did in 2021. He needs to not play AFL or VFL for about 6-8 weeks and just get super-fit. Come back in late in the year and play full-forward from there on in.

Worked once, why not try it again.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
