    hard to tell on the stream, but it really looked like a lot of the casey players were running in quicksand that quarter

    i am fearful of a sluggish 'loading' game in mfc's immediate future

    Well the system certainly broke down that quarter.

    Handball chains that couldn't break free or went backwards allowing ample time for Swans to go forward.

    Kicks via the boundary line with up and under kicks into the forward line

    Swans are flooding back which is making it particularly difficult to achieve any rebound plus Swans are entering on our countless turnovers which makes defending a nightmare

    Havent been able to watch the first half so cheers for the info everyone.

    From an opposition perspective it's interesting to see Florent in the reserves. He seemed a solid 22 lock prior to this season and contracted until 2029 I believe.

    Jesse Dattoli looked super impressive in his draft year as a half-forward with stints on ball. Strong competative player for his size and excellent overhead game. I see he's amongst the goals. Northern Knights boy so maybe one to keep on the radar if he gets home sick.

    The umpire whistles coming through the effects mic from the surrounding grounds is bloody annoying.

    I'm not watching it, but can anyone tell me, are we trying to play the same style as the AFL team? Surely...

    Sme whistle is annoying. I thought it sounded like the audio of the umps whistle was coming through earlier than the video and the commentators coming later than both. If so, quite an achievement.

    I dunno if he has the ‘smarts’ around the footy to play the role

    He reads the play well and impacts aerially from a spoil / intercept perspective

    He seems to operate in straight lines as opposed to making intelligent decisions in the moment, particularly when it comes to with ball in hand

    Yes we are but at VFL level the packs are often more crowded making it harder to break lines. Some of the players eg Tholstrup might be better trying to break a line and then handball rather than handballing at first instance.

    Also we kick laterally instead of at 45 degrees allowing opposition to flood back.

    All that aside it's promising

    Jai Culley’s most impressive performance thus far in red and blue.

    Ollie Florentino looks a class above and has the AFL physique to go with it. Cunningham is another regular who is returning after a long injury lay-off. Dattoli looks every bit a quality first rounder will rebound to first no doubt.

    Agree it's an audio issue with the ground set up.

    Nice to know that there's a mark before a player kicks the ball

    jvr very strong to get the separation and then double lead for the mark i50 but his kicking is letting him down quite a bit - actually true of the whole of the casey side; their disposal really letting them down

    el jefe seems to be one of those forwards who has a knack for earning a free kick i50 - he now has 3 goals 1

    billings is absolutely racking it up, playing that classic gut-running wing role and getting a heap of ball running the lines

    So many missed marks and unforced errors. A lot of lazy football. TMac having a mare. Kolton has pretty ordinary skills. Jeff’o and Roo the main positives

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
