Simple answer, why get yourself beaten up in the media, by the supporters etc etc, just go back to being a supporter and enjoy the footy again, that is what I got from her speech at the B&F

I think that might be happy clapper thinking Saty, but I hope you are correct. Another thought might be that she could see trouble ahead ( court case(s), internal review) and decided to fall on her sword now, rather than have the club face more scandal? 

 

Consider at stages during the season we were hopeless. Games versus Freo both times, last quarter versus Kangas to name 3.

Despite some lousy form during the season, we didn't miss the eight by a lot and in the process lost 4 games by less than a kick. Including one to the eventual premier on their own deck. That despite no Trac for half a season and Clarry being unfit physically and also in the head.

2 of those games go our way and we probably make the eight, but I doubt we get to a prelim.

So with that, there is no reason why we can't turn it around provided all the BS politics is sorted and doesn't filter down to the playing group.

2025 is going to be a big year for a number of players who have been added to our list over the last year or two.

IMO the following players will either show big improvement or be gone by the time 2026 rolls around.

In no particular order:

Kentfield mid year pick who has a summer to get AFL level fit and show reasons to keep him at an AFL club.

Tom Fullarton was bought in as a ruck forward to cover for big max / KPF duties. Has only played a few games that look like he would be a success as a KPF at the top level. With our forward problems in 2014 it is very surprising that he could not get a game. why is he on the list never a better chance than this year but not picked?

Taj Woewoden, has been around the mark for most of this year but never seemed able to cement a place. With Alex B gone a position opens up for him to fill.

Will Verrall, Young ruckman who has not shown more than average ability at VFL level. Put up or begone in 2026. you can only get by on "young " for so long. Other ruckman have been added to the list this trade period it does  not look good.

Mathew Jefferson, apprenticeship has been served at Casey, IMO in 2025 he needs to play a few games at senior level  and show he has the ability to be a regular at senior level. the clock is ticking.

Charlie Spargo, after a full year out this season there have been a number of players claiming his spot some have been ok others not so. Put up or its over Charlie.

McAdam, the most disappointing recruit for some time. Could hardly justify his spot at Casey. Will need dramatic improvement in 2025.

youre wrong about spargo OD. best 22 when fit. has been injured most of the last 2 seasons. will be fine with a good run injury free.

Gawn... 50/50 ball, beautifully sharked by OLIVER, Lays it of to the fast running WINDSOR, kicks to a one on one WEITERING and VAN ROOYENJostling and here comes JEFFFFFFERRRRSON................ COMES FROM THE CLOUDS AND FLEW HIGHER THAN JOE COCKER TO SNATCH A SENSATIONAL MARK. PLAYS ON AROUND THE CORNER............... GOAL!

How quickly people have forgotten Spargo's value when fit. He was arguably our most important and effective link up player going inside 50 when we were at our peak.

How quickly some people think people move from pro or against a certain player (usually positive to negative)

I will be happy if Jefferson turns up with arms like the hulk. Still think half of demonland will still not be happy.

He has yet to play a senior game! I would be surprised if his physique  changes much. I think he will always be tall and thin. Has to show a lot of improvement in 2025. 

2 gun midfield picks and we kept our current guns.. development of Kolt and Windsor. 
This year couldn’t have got any worse, let’s hope 2025 couldn’t get any better!!!

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
