So we have fritta who according to goody has turned the corner, even though he's only kicked the 1 goal & did some selfish things last week & van rooyen who cannot hold onto a mark & goes to ground so easily.

We'll bring McKay back into form.

We saw mcqualtar make the call to drop Tim Kelly but goody never has the guts to do it.

Which tall on the bench helps Max and covers injuries.????

 

Good idea Goodwin let’s play same core team who got us in this mess and expecting change. The sooner you are gone the sooner we move forward as it’s clear you won’t ever change.

He doesn’t play for us.😁👍

Goodwin has lost the plot, what a shocking selection.

 

Happy with the changes, Lindsay in is a plus, and backing the players in to get the job done sends a strong internal message on what's expected.

The idea that we have fringe and developing players running round in the two's who'd make any more than a marginal, move-the-deckchairs difference is just delusional.

Small ball to try and expose Essendon's oversized defence I don't mind, but it's not a sustainable forward line with no height

Which would be fine until we bomb it long to undersized forwards. I reckon I will make Ridley my SC captain, he will prob take 50 marks

Melky to play a defensive role on him would be the plan you'd assume

I mean I assumed we would want to kick more than 6 goals a game but I seem to be wrong there too.

Fullarton has kicked 10 goals in 3 games at VFL level. He has been leading high and creating scores when not deep forward and playing really well. If that isn't enough to warrant a look in when we have no other tall forwards to take pressure off Roo (who now has to play back up ruck and singular key forward in a forward line that is getting the worst delivery in the league) then what point is there in producing solid, good form in the 2s? There's no reward because Goodwin can't get his rose tinted glasses off and actually drop underperforming "stars".

Since the flag we have recruited players from other teams on the basis on a fair shot at senior football, promised them the world then dumped them in the VFL and left them to rot. Grundy, Fullarton, Campbell, Dunstan, Billings to name a few.

We are going to run Gawn into the ground well before kings birthday, trac is already frustrated, Roo will end up a wreck like Watts with no support. Time to get rid of Goodwin, thank him for his effort and try and salvage the season and put a plan into place going forward.

Yep and yep again, any player who has kicked 10 goals in three games SHOULD be rewarded! ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SIDE IS ZERO 4

DREADFUL !

Thrilled to see Lindsay back. Seeing him and Langford play a full game together will be exciting. Hopefully he hasn't been rushed and is 100% good to go.

With his recent form, I really get the feeling that Fullerton's papers have already been stamped if he can't get a spot in our forward line.

Casey have only played 3 games and Fullarton was leading goal kicker in one.

10 goals in three games - how many have JVR and Fritsch kicked?

I understand that stability is good for a team, but not when your players are horribly out of form and there are options presenting at VFL level

You don’t think fullarton deserves a run? Not rewarding form?

I don’t think a response saying “the vfl isn’t the afl “ is relevant - it’s literally all we have to build form.

I tend to think not being a bit more hard nosed sends the opposite message

It also will cause those perennially not rewarded for form to bugger off

Where’s Jeffo?

What about Kynan Brown?

Nah [censored] that, Harry Sharp is clearly more deserving /s

Fullerton probably isn't the answer but he should have been picked. There has to competition for places.

Players know poor form is accepted. not a good message at all.

This. This coach either lives in LaLaLand o he no longer cares.

At least try something different, regard those players doing hard yards in the VFL.

Think I heard Goodwin on sen saying he thought Fritta had turned the corner last week so assume it won’t happen. Not surprised at all with selection news or lack of tbh.

Prob no support for Gawn either, let’s just keep running him into the ground and have our young forward JVR cover for him makes perfect sense FFS

Drives me nuts.

Allen Jean's has advice for Goody..

Don't think..... do

Strongly disagree

The palyers at Casey are not better than this 23

That was John Kennedy Snr.

A real “phone it in” effort at selections by Goodwin and Co.

Tell me who’s going to be our key forward when JVR is rucking or on the bench?

Fullarton, Brown? At least give you something more than Spargo or Sharp. The Disco dropped when we are lacking at our fwd line?

No egg on my face lol

Senior moment.

So Jean's overheard Kennedy or something 🤔

Advice same ...

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
