So I think we would all like to see what abilities some players at Casey possess.

then play them against similar opponents, I mean the weaker sides not much point in playing them and having them walloped and lose all confidence.  But it needs to be more than one game at a time.  Remember JW.

    Which players are possibly open to a good offer? More like a wish list.

    Ideally Age 22-25 , high impact, experienced, returning Victorian? Dissatisfied with currentteam/prospects?

    Just scratching the surface though I’m sure to have included or missed something obvious.
    Some high cost/value, others cheaper but may not offer much. Mainly speed - mids and forwards. Have not included any rucks as I believe it will be difficult to attract any after last year until Max actually retires. 

    (grouped in clubs, possibility and by quality of the group)

    Serong, Young, Brayshaw, 

    Butters, Drew, Bergman, 

    Davies-Uniake,

    Holmes

    Callaghan, Ash, 

    Taranto, Baker, Short, Ross, Graham

    Dale, Richards, Smith 

    Sinclair, King, 

    Rayner, 

    Walsh, Curnow 

    Parish, Hobbs, 

    King, Humphrey, Ballard, 

    Couldn’t find too many from these teams: Coll, Haw, WC, Adl.

    Specially Woewodin, it's a travesty. For such a young player that could become a 200 gamer for the club. Is there some lost love between Goodwin and Woewodin Sr?

    I get the frustration but Woey is a developing young player. He had a couple of full games and was poor. Understandably dropped. Has made an impact as sub so he continued as such. Then dropped as needed some full game time. Not a travesty just a young player being developed. Just how Jordon, Sparrow, Bowey, etc etc were developed. We have been excellent in this area under Goody

    until woey 2.0 can hit a target from 40m under zero pressure i'm not convinced he's going to make as an afl player

    the amount of times at both afl and vfl level his kicks - particularly when trying to execute the switch - miss the target by some margin is a concern

    Agree Picket with ageing stars May, and Gawn, then the late 20s stars of Viney, Lever, Trac, Clarry, Salem, ANB, Lingers  

    Youngsters need to elevate themselves… Rivers, Fritsch, McVee, Pickett

    Fritsch is not young, he's 28 I believe.

    He’s 27, (not being smart, just sitting in an airport waiting lounge with time to kill).

    A lot of senior players just turning up and not playing with passion.

    There are people in the side who are literally a decade younger than him.

    I am not convinced on JVR. As a KPF he makes a good relieving Ruckman. As a relieving ruckman he makes a good kpf. He doesn't do either well. Yes he has the odd good game followed by 5 ordinary ones. Sadly there is no one to take his place so he stays in.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
