DistrACTION Jackson

I don't get this Adelaide talk? He's Victorian.....

Fair enough for him to wait and see. I hope he stays, but if we win another flag this year someone like him may leave for more money. If I had to choose between paying Kozzie and JJ I know who I'm choosing....

I think when you look at these stats the more important aspect is where the shots are coming from. I felt like we got a lot more shots from around 30m out and not deep in pockets. If you can get more shots from this area you are inevitably going to kick at a higher accuracy. Similarly, if you force the opposition wide they will generally have a lower accuracy.

People calling for Howes in, I enjoyed his game and nice to see him get touches but I would be surprised to see him picked atm. He got a lot of easy possessions across half back and I think still needs to build up his body and improve his contested game to be selected.

I have zero sympathy for them. Grew up in Perth and we were regularly embarrassed over there and their supporters are feral.

Happy to offer my members barcode if that helps ET

Will be interesting. I've got to say I'm impressed with Goody's ability to change things up. My one knock on him over the last 2 years was his inability to be flexible, but perhaps his coaching is ever evolving.

Salem struggled with injury all year. Once he is back they need to give Salem a solid training block, plus 3-4 games at Casey before he is up for selection in my view. A fully fit and firing Salem is in our best side still.

What's your thoughts on this week Binman? Think Petty will stay in a forward role or will he go back? I prefer our backline mix with the three talls personally, but nice to see we can get creative and still win comfortably.

Given the team as a whole we poor that night it's tough to single him out.

100%. We would be dumb not to get Melksham to 100 games using the sub rule. Imagine if we didn't and his kid turns out to be a number 1 pick.

This is going to be a really hard selection if there are no injured/sore players. Goody mentioned Brown just had back tightness, but if there is any doubt I'd rather we give him a week rest given the long flight to Perth and the fact the Eagles will be cooked. If that is the case do we stick with the smaller backline and leave Petty and JVR forward? Personally I'd prefer we go back to our usual 3 key backs, as that is usually what we go with and we need to get the cohesion going with those 3 again given May is finally back. If we do this then maybe TMac will come in for Brown and then I'd bring Pickett in for Hibberd. Someone will be unlucky, but this is just what happens in a strong side.

I guess we should setup another academy over there as well to help these poor West Aussie juniors dodge being selected by Freo or the Eagles

Could not believe that 'tripping' free to Rowbottom. It was holding the ball!

Yeah I think it was just to go with a smaller forward line. They need to get the ball to ground in the forward line and not let the Mcartins mark I have covid and watching from home unfortunately..... so have to listen to BT and also scare everyone in my house

Not sure Petty forward is working. Our key talls look a bit lost and we usually play the 3 key backs.

Sheldrick has dropped the ball 5-6 times and never pinged

Jefferson takes a contested mark in the centre square, goes quick and hits McDonald

Casey defence is fantastic.

Great mark by Howes. Outstanding game.

How was that not a 50m penalty? haha ridiculous

McDonald and Tomlinson have been very dominant. Petty would want to play well, otherwise I could see him potentialy losing his spot

The stream is down.... but apparently Jefferson kicked a goal. Shame to miss it

McDonald much too good for VFL level

Great bodywork and kick in board by Sestan sets up a goal
