    Ridiculous.  Complete over-reaction.

    Too many kids Danhausen, you don't want to curse them or burn them out with overreliance early on

    INV. Taj might be a chance in a couple of years ( games perhaps)  not a star but very solid, just needs a couple of pre seasons and more game time. 
    He will be a lock for the 22. 
     

    why do we play guys who have been injured and rush them straight back in.

    Moniz - yes, forward or back he’s worth a go soon. Personally now we have defensive options with Salem, Bowey and Woey we should chuck Moniz forward at Casey and see if he can produce some 20 touches, 5 tackle, 2 goal games 

    Jefferson, Adams, Verrall - no way, not physically ready and losing their match up most weeks at vfl. They’d get smoked at afl level. 

    Kolt and Kynan Brown - maybe soon, but absolutely no rush with either, they are working on their craft as mid/forwards at Casey.

    Sestan - no for now. He can earn a debut in the back end of the year if he’s consistent at vfl level but I don’t think he’s a medium forward at afl level, he’s a high half forward/mid and that means building that tank, a lot!

    Who for?

    Drop the kids to play the kids?

    This was always going to happen - a completely inert performance from a bunch of blokes playing a new way off defensive transition.

    Progress isn’t linear.

    Hopefully picking half Casey's squad will help us match their fine achievements this year.

    Like when Port reunited the Mark Neeld All Stars of Barry, Toumpas, Trengove and Watts.

    None of those players listed are much good and none are physically ready, otherwise they would be playing already.

    The fact that Howes and Billings are regular selections despite being consistently ordinary proves this. 

    I'm hopeful on Brown, not confident on Tholstrup and resigned to the rest not making it.

    Because when we lose some people get very angry and want to sack everyone

    Thats what the Gameday thread appears to be for.

    Andy Moniz Wakefield.  It’s time to give him a go.  And not just one game. Three games minimum.  He’s still learning but gives it a rip.

    • 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.
