Casey surging need to captialise

Dees. First two of second qtr… game on. Then Giants put on 3 goals against the breeze. Too easy.

Culley to Fritsch. Goal. Good contested mark … but why do players go off after a goal. It’s so fucjed!!!

Jefferson doesn't have much of a game below his knees

Nor anywhere else.

Culley mark but kicks a behind, Casey's third in a row.

Fritsch, Van Rooyen 1 kick ,Jeffo spending time in defence MADNESS

Van Rooyen , was a Buy, now a Sell.

I think we all missed seeing him as what he really is , “lumbering” , “moving in a slow, heavy, awkward way”.

So many missed opportunities

Culley's next snap gets marked on the line. What's to come is almost inevitable.

Literally has 0 weapons, needs to be trialled as a key defender next summer

Kentfield has shown good mits behind the ball

Van Rooyen totally out of confidence just went up a week before the ball got to him

Perhaps we train too close to the Storm. We seem to love the up and under kick

JVR 🤢🤢🤢has lost it

Our development is [censored]

Needs some real coaching from a real forwards coach !!!

Lazy… Culley was poor. Two golden chances to get us closer

Better quarter and dominated the last ten minutes but wasted too many chances.

The question is whether Casey has thefitness and ability to come back from an almost five goal deficit.

Why are they trying to play fritta as a high half forward. He has played his best footy playing deep. If it ain’t broke dont fix it(it may be broke tho)

Casey simply playing the 'Melbourne way'

Culley really doesn't look great with ball in hand. He'll fit right in 😂

Hard to know if it’s just lack of confidence or uncertainty, but the Casey decision-making across the board is just dumb. They look like a bunch of dumb footballers, but I’ll stay glass half full and go with the former assessment. Apart from that, their tackling, kicking, marking and handballing is horribly inferior. So all the things making good footy. Geez this club is living under dark grey clouds. Where-when will we see the glimmer of light?????

Worst team to play against in the VFL when you have no confidence. Those two are starting defenders at most clubs. No need to overreact.

Youre making out as if they are Matthew Scarlett..

One is hasn't even played a game at AFL level at For 3 years and another just the 12 games next to his name.

On exposure Van Rooyen has played 44 games and kicked 62 goals at AFL level. It's simple, if he was desperate for to win his spot he'd be making a statement.

So far his statement is the 2 disposals for two whole quarters at VFL level.

Glimmer of light sounds like a near death experience, which is not far from the truth.

Might be time to give Sestan a crack

BOG so far.

I'd get him in next week.

To have any chance of winning this they'll need to leave AJ in as the main ruck and change with Verral (for the chop out) off the bench or rest Verral forward if Rooh needs the odd break

Madness. Verrall is breaking even most of the time – AJ is getting mauled by Madden who is not a pretend giant. He would beat most AFL rucks at CB, but is a bit too slow around the ground.

It would be nice for some wingers and midfielders to keep the ball in our Forward line.

Since his back spasms in the first minute of the practice match vs Fremantle, he hasn’t been the player he was in 2023 and 2024. I would rest him for a few weeks to find out what his problem is - I can’t see him turning things around at the moment.

Code red. Code red. Clear. Anyone at Casey got a defibrillator handy?

If they stopped butchering the ball. And worked out which way the wind was blowing. They might be a chance.

Maybe it’s a tactic so that GWS will be out on their feet from over running? It’s not like our guys have used all their energy in the first half?
