Our forward line has to step up & we can't just let Harris Andrews dominate

Not sure we have a choice other than shooting him before 1/4 time.. just sayin’

Hopefully this is correct, Jeffo is a class above at Casey and with X.T deserves a gig Now!

Jeffo is a slightly above very average Casey footballer, nothing more nothing less.

I’m sorry PF but you’re delusional

We aren’t a good team after all.

Was wondering what this little image was on the banner when the boys run out. Is it something for Max to punch as he leads the boys out or something else always been curious

It’s something we started this season. Every week the little Demon says something different. Sometimes it’s something that pertains to the cheer squad or a member of the cheer squad and sometimes it’s a message for the team.

Max punches it because Max. It’s his little way of acknowledging us ❤️💙

 

Even allowing us to play at the level we played v Gold Coast, this will be a tough ask.

Brisbane’s list is stupidly good, miles in front of the other 17 clubs IMO. A-graders everywhere, young talent everywhere, solid system.

Their scoring prowess should be too much for our very sub-standard defence.

Having said all that, I felt the same way before the GC game, plus we played some really good footy for 2-3 quarters v Fremantle. So you never know.


The offensive power of Brisbane is an obvious problem

But they also bring a very tricky control based game style, similar to Essendon. Brisbane will work the ball up the ground with precise kicking, hopefully we have some plans to counter it but I am not too sure.

In the fight game, they say styles make fights. Our contest and movement focused style was usable against Blues, Freo and GC since they were happy to go toe-to-toe and scrap it out with us.

Brisbane's style/system will likely be too match to handle.

Agree,

The lions game plan is more aggressive than the Bombers in that yes, they use lots of short kick mark plays but they usually go forward, and once an opportunity to go quick appears go quick (or long) whereas the Bombers go sideways and back heaps. The lions have the skill to hit those forward 20-30 metres kicks whereas the bombers don't.

The only way to beat the Lins method is to pressure the kicker and press right up on the receiver and either spoil, intercept or at the very least hold them up so they cant quick and/or long.

Much will depend on whether we have the gas in the tank.

I reckon your wish may be granted, Fencey.

Yesterday I told him that I reckon he’s in this week. He asked what makes me think so. I told him the telltale sign is that he’s happy, which is not normal. He said, “I’m always happy!” I said, “Yes but does your face know it?” He laughed and said, “I’m happy where it matters… on the inside.”

Not solid evidence, just a feeling I’ve got.

LOL Jadams said Jeffo has a “full-on resting b!ttchh face.” 🤣

Has provided virtually nothing for 4 games .. how else?

Hard to know what his actual ability capacity is. He’s an enigma

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
