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?

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.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
