I’ll try hard to convince her to grab it, if it’s there!

she’ll be a bit shy to do that but hopefully her big sister can encourage her to!

❤️💙

Well Nicko, Neil thinks I’m deranged (to be fair, I kinda am) but when it comes to non-adults, I’m totally harmless and even quite stable. 🙃

You know what @WalkingCivilWar … with all the commentary on DL over the last few weeks, all that matters to me is that my daughters have a great time with you and everyone else in the cheer squad tomorrow … a win would be a massive bonus ❤️💙

With the selection of only Bowey,  to replace Oliver. And no other additions to booster the forwards or ruck.

Can I suggest that Goodness will either be a saviour and genius.  Or . A pariah who has no idea.   
 

depending on whether we win  or loose by a lot.

i will be watching whatever. Good luck Nibbler.

Your daughters will have a great time, win or lose. And I hope they like Haribo gummy bears and Pascall jubes because 6 and a half kilos of my 7kg carry-on comprises lollies. They’ll still be pinging off the walls on Sunday night 😂

Perhaps  Praps not.  Will be am interesting side light to the way the game goes and is played.  Only adding Bowey almost says everything is fine in our garden and we cannot get much better.

personally I think there have been a couple of games where we were anything but  as good as we can be,  

Think AnB will have a couple of standout games,

Bowey doesn't replace Oliver. But he does move into the backline and allow both Judd and Rivers midfield time.

Very surprised it's just the one change. Bowey for Oliver.

If true, there must be no niggles what-so-ever. No one with the exception of Oliver to be heading into surgery post season for any correction procedures. A clean bill of health for this Sundays starting 23 I take it! 

No Brown, No Jefferson, No Fullarton, No Sestan, No Kentfield - no games for any of these players in a dead rubber game that could provide the player valuable experience before a full on pre-season where they could be motivated to get back to seniors in 2025 having had a taste. Hmmm. 

I'm not into "gifting" players games either, but I'd prefer the option to play one or 2 with 2 dead rubber games remaining. 

You answered your own rhetorical question.

None of those players have been picked because none of them have demanded selection at Casey, and we're not going to gift them games for the sake of it.

One sure fire way to damage your playing group culture is to play players who don't deserve it.

Flat as a tack tonight. 

If we are going to go down tomorrow, I would appreciate seeing us going down with a great deal of physicality and fight. 

And just to top it off, JJ getting interviewed tonight after Sydney pelted the Bombers, has forced me to drink.

Not entirely... If we lose to GC and the Saints win they could jump us on the ladder and we could potentially land Pick 5 in the Draft! So we absolutely need to keep playing average football. 

Careful Tom Morris lurks here, will use this post as ‘reports’ of tanking discussions overheard within the four walls of MFC’ FD offices.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
