The kid is barely in the door. Of course he would get a full off season to see where he sits.  This is just getting used to your team mates ands settling in time.  He is not a unicorn, he is a young tall that cost the club very little. Give him space and see what happens,,,,

Well we’ve flicked a mid season draftee off before after 6 months in Kye Declase so was just asking

Half the Melbourne players have all checked out.

Hunter should just retire in the spot. That was an embarrassing performance from a more senior member.

Laughable comment.

Same selection issues that has them motoring along winning 5 of their last 6 games beating the likes of Sydney, Geelong at Kardinia and Carlton?

 

and losing to the bombers and getting smashed by us and Port

Does Kentfield get a summer to prove himself next year? 

Unless his attitude is the problem he should certainly get the preseason 

first time he would have trained properly

How did Jed Adam’s go? Seemed to be getting a few mentions early?!

Disappeared under an avalanche of WBd’s goals. Moves well and has neat skills just needs to be more involved.

Good to see Jeffo have another decent game

4 goals in a losing team is good output. I didn’t see the game but he seems to know how to kick goals when having an average day.

He seems like he's a high impact guy like Fritsch, doesn't need many touches to put the scores on the board

Not only does it white ant ( rather than support) the senior competition, it also makes winning a flag in this competition seem kinda devoid of value.

This should be the second best competition in the nation.

It seems like it's being run by clowns.....

Oh hang on

The Quambatook Fifths are comparatively graced by a better-organised fixture. Similarly, Nar Nar Goon Fourths have benefitted from games held Saturdays - without abnormal variations - and their occasional visits to their Tribunal authority are as smooth as afternoon tea and scones in a sun-filled meadow with a large herd of grazing cattle strolling by to gain insight into some well-planned, civilized banter.

Who cares.. they were early losses of the season.

They're timing the run beautifully at the right time of the year. One of the most inform teams in the competition alongside Brisbane and Hawthorn. 

Every chance they could finish too 4.

I'd play him yes.

29 goals from 16 games this year. Eventually you need to reward form at some stage.

We will give him his 200th even if he is sub.

I'd have preferred Hunter was gifted his 200th tonight. Then the Bulldogs could chair him off rather than our blokes.

Kentfield is still only 18 and has come over from the west mid season. While he hasnt pulled up any trees here yet, he surely deserves a pre seson etc to see how he goes next year.  The delivery has been generally deplorable at Casey this year which hasnt helped. Id like to see how he goes with a pre season under his belt and him growing a bit more into his body.

Terrible game by so many. Slow and sloppy doesn't describe the relative failures on every line.

Not sure that playing at Casey when they are in this form does anything for player development.

One standout was the number of broken tackles allowing run on play by the Dogs.

Time to draw a line under this annus horriblis.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
