And wasted about 3 paras about BBB in total. BBB was named as an emergency last night so there is your answer I believe about his position. 
You are correct that Jefferson will develop quicker and better without too many other talls competing with him at Casey. Last week was promising and hopefully he can again produce that form and goals. 
 

Itsxa learning curve for some and very important for McAdams he played a full game this week to justify his performance for consideration for Seniors.

 
 

 

Unless my eyes are deceiving me 58er,  BBs been named in both of KC's lists at FF

Does Kayo cover any VFL matches. Are there any streams online?

Kayo no more.  The only stream is the AFL site via the VFL option

The AFL site streams VFL games live. Coverage quality can be a bit of a crapshoot but it's better than nothing

If there’s someone who can help us short term then take them and get George for more VFL games and training at the end of the year.

But I’d be perfectly happy to take the gamble of all gambles on the mid season draft.

He most likely wouldn't impact this year.  He'd not be fit enough for AFL footy and he'd take time to learn the gameplan.  Unless we think he is a long term prospect why draft him and give him a list spot when IMO we have much greater needs.

He’d be no chance to impact this year but it would be a free hit rather than giving him a full year next year. 

Logically the most likely result is he’s not in any draft and he could come train over summer for a proper look if he plays a few more VFL games.

I’m just not sure there’s anyone out there who would impact right away and I don’t think we’re close enough to really sweat it. There might be a depth ruck or midfielder who has something to offer us this year but more than likely anyone we take is a project.

Still not writing off Laurie.  Hope he plays well as he's a candidate to come in for either Billings or Chandler. Would obviously like McAdam to come in but he's played 2 quarters out of 8 and reckon he needs 2 full VFL games for match fitness.

I'd like to see Laurie and McAdam in place of Chandler and Billings. Neither Chandler or Billings have set the world on fire.

I also think Turner could be replaced by a tall. I reckon he's better suited down back even though he got 3 goals recently. I worry that Goodwin sometimes keeps faith in his players far too long during a game and sometimes for a number of games. We can only carry a certain number of players before we end up paying for it. You could say the same thing about strategy (taking too long to react) and assistant coaches ie why is Stafford an ex ruck coaching our forwards??

I didn't see George play last week, but I saw footage of him from 2020 and he is very, very skilful. I'd take a punt on him now if he's keen. I reckon he'd be another Seston smokie

George has played up in Darwin the last few seasons with Southern Districts. Same Club Steven May played Juniors with.

 

Plenty of footage on Youtube as they stream the games

jeffo with 1 goal 1 early on before mcmahon answers back for them

Scores level at 7 - 7. Casey’s goal to Jefferson.

Woewodin playing

Lighting atrocious

Taj Woewodin is playing.

Jeffo getting his hands on it early. So much better without the extra tall. One of Brown or Schache is ok. But both + Jefferson? No good. 

Nearly a mark to McAdam

sestan with a fantastic intercept in the middle, hand off to pup, in deep to tholstrup...who hits the post

nice footy tho

Had thought Casey would be better tonight

Carlton 3.3.21 to Casey 1.3.9

tomlinson again shows why he is not trusted in the afl - his decision making is simply not to the standard of our backline

Laurie has kicked two absolute clangers

Bailey Laurie 🙄

Must be Laurie's 4th turnover for the quarter.  Tomo about two or three also.

Those turnovers have probably directly resulted in approx three goals already, maybe two at best.

Yep, exactly this. It’s all good to rack up 35+ a week at Casey but when you kick out, dump kick out of D50 and consistently lose 1 on 1’s, the stats on the eye really don’t paint/tell the full picture/story.

Right idea from Bill to take the corridor but poor execution.
