chook fowler

Hard to see a player with poor physicality such as Weed will be any good in the ruck but there is no one else, assuming Daw is unavailable.

If there is any integrity in the system Gus will be an AA half back. This combined with his heroics in the GF make him indispensable. Hopefully he will retire as an all time great Demon.

Pity we didn’t pick up Bell from Casey in the midseason draft

Why was Daw not playing for Casey? I am not sure he is available.

I would think a ruckman will require longer to recover due to the load on the ankle because of his height and weight and the force required to spring in a ruck contest.

the most telling stat is that we have gone from first to seventeenth for pressure acts. That surely is a mental thing or fitness or fatigue or a combination.

I hope May is suitably chastened.

Now going to direct my attention to the Socceroos

He was poor before the hit.

A reset coming up - perhaps a game of poker in Sorrento.

Harmes was terrible all day and ANB has reverted to type with his kicking. Sparrow is too slow and Trac has lost a yard. And thanks May for your absence - it really made a difference.

Well that was fun. Always good to lose to the filth. Forward line is a shambles. Brayshaw was superlative at half back but Lever is a worry - he can’t man up.

Disco playing like a veteran. Old head on young shoulders. And hard at it.

Good performance- No Baker, Tomlinson or Chandler who have obviously been held over.

It’ll be hot and dusty at Casey tomorrow.

Must admit it provoked a little moisture around the old peepers

Drinking heavily whilst concussed, slagging off an injured team mate and brawling in public. This is not a trivial matter contrary to what some on here are saying.

His game against the Swans was an amazing response to our loss against Freo. I don’t know what more he can do. It is now up to the rest to extract multiple digits.

any consumption of alcohol in the context of a brain impacted by concussion is absolutely contraindicated - one could say a " no brainer" Especially in an athlete involved in high impact sport. He must know this with all the input given by medical staff. Breath taking stupidity.

irresponsible, unacceptable behaviour that couldn't have come at a worse time. FMD. Hope it is the last we hear of Melksham as well.

Feel so sorry for Max. His game was epic and should have inspired a win. What a champion he is.

Will be howled down but I reckon Ginger Baker should be considered. Recent Casey form has been excellent

I threw up at the end.

Gawn Jordon Gus Oliver Fritta that’s it.

Too many not contributing. Spargo, Lever, Sparrow, Thomlinson, Petty
