Still, it presents an opportunity for those at Casey who are pressing for senior selection.

Oh, wait …

I think some peeps have been a bit spoiled.. I wish I could make it so that when you jump-off this quickly you can’t enjoy the high-rides but I know where you’re coming from and would’ve once felt similar but this is a perfect day for a team that’s choc-full of confidence and we’re barely there! Maybe this is a butt-smashing we need?
 

 No reason it can’t be.. I choose to keep faith, everything’s going right for them and it’s evident they’re chasing in. I can’t smash a team that’s given me so much resounding reasons to trust them.. I mean look at that Serong Goal for goodness sake off back if DARCY lucky goal and Frederick boundary goal, that’s just bananas & good on em!

We’ll bounce back next week.. you don’t lose ability overnight for goodness sake! 
 

Harden up ppl, it’s a crappy day — move fwd.  

 

We will make the eight.

We will be seventh.

This is a club very much in decline as evidenced by the players we have recruited and kept in Schache, Hunter, McAdam, Fullerton, Bbb....to name a few.

Where players like Petty gets gifted game after game because there is simply no replacement.

We need to rebuild our list and that takes time.

Today is not an aberration. It happened two weeks ago against the eagles. And before that to Carlton and the lions.

We can be competitive but the difference between our best and worst is vast.

Our once touted midfield is alas no longer functioning like it used to and we have one good fwd in Fritta.

Today is ample proof of our deterioration.

Have you ever played footy at an elite lvl and had an opponent steamroll you? It’s no fun & putting pressure on isn’t the issue that got us to this point, least of our worries in this game!

Absolutely wrong.

They are doing as they please under no pressure at all.

The year we won the flag our pressure was manic.

That was my point.

whether I personally have played footy at an elite level or not is completely irrelevant

3rd qtr 

first possession is a handball to no one or under pressure 

zone doesn’t work if they hit skills they run they mark.  
 

clearances !! Smashed.  Seriously smashed.  
 

Bowey !!! LAZY. LAZY. LAZY. MISSED TARGET FROM 10 metres. Turnover. Goal Freo.  
 

missed tackles.  Can’t hold them !!! 
 

Dees look hopeless with the footy. Indecisive!!! Lack skill.

So you are OK with a premiership type list being smashed week in and week out by mediocre opposition?

It's clear this team is not good enough this year, let's stop pretending otherwise.

How is this team losing a game of footy by 82 points? At 3Q?? 

Gotta be honest I turned off a long time ago because I choose life, but checking in here and there and this is beyond woeful. Nightmare stuff.

The Jackson goal in that quarter, I can’t remember that style of goal happening in the Goodwin era. Witches hats. Used to see it every quarter in the dark days. This is as bad as it gets. I’m sure olisik’s and poita’s fingers are warm.

Some things are clear 

we do not deserve to be in the top 8

our forward coach needs to be changed. But we all knew that.

our midfield needs a freshen up. 
some recruits do not need to play again and I include some in Casey. Change the bloooody  lot 

and the backs need a break,

the coaching staff and whom ever picks the side needs help,

God help us   ( I hope she can) 186. Must have been mind blowing

Can we please send Goodwin via bus/coach back to Melbourne?

Doesn't deserve to take the plane, and take some of the players too.

Out: Hunter. In: Billings... fun times.

Surely silly Goodwin will give the spot to Woewodin?

We are a mediocre team at present and getting shown up by a lot of teams.

Something has to change because it's not good enough.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
