Just as 2 asides, Adams was incredibly listed amongst Casey’s best in this morning’s HS, whilst Billings kicked 5 goals for Footscray’s VFL side 😳

Far off the mark with Kossie mate. He absolutely dominated today.

Thanks buddy

Gawn - dominated historical rival

Steele - best recruit ever

Sparrow - career best game

K Pickett - prolific without dominating

Sharp - continues to impress

Salem - excellent after first

Lever - impressive form continued

Windsor - great holding role

van Rooyen - probably broke even

Chandler - tackling was vital

Melksham - fountain of youth

Tholstrup - some pressure acts

Langdon - indefatigable but limited

Turner - great after first

Lindsay - regularly disposed impressively

Langford - needed more involvement

L Pickett - some important possessions

Mihocek - limited but valuable

Culley - same as Mihocek

Petty - in right places

Howes - safe and creative

McDonald - regular pressure acts

Laurie - probably wasted opportunity

Kentfield has all the ingredients to be a significant player for the Dees.

He’s strong, tough, versatile and can kick straight. I personally believe that given time he’s an upgrade on JVR because he seeks out physical contact and has the body size to cope, along with an excellent temperament for such a young man

Very appropriate that Heath takes a strong pack mark to save the game.. Dees win by 5 points

Jefferson missed 2 fr 30 meters out directly in front

Adams showing why he’s a mile from being considered for senior selection… his opponent has 4 for the quarter

Very strong team.. on paper

Surprisingly entertaining interview and JVR was extremely eloquent and honest….nice job

No Clarry or Trac

Suddenly some nice kicks through the middle hitting targets

No coincidence

You can add Viney to that poor connection culprits list

The Bounce confirms only that Andrew Gaze is truly a decent and compassionate human being.

Not sure the relevance for much of its content, nor Bernie Vince’s participation

I let my wife forward an opinion about the game😜

Yes I know that’s very sexist of HER

I let my wife forward an opinion about the game😜

Nice recap of the game Whispy, but I’m afraid you lost me when you added Mihocek as our second best player.. surely you were blindsided by all the phone messages you received

The feel good win probably saves LPickett this week, possibly also the fact that there’s nobody banging the door down at Casey yet to take his role.

Culley - very limited skills

You let yourself down with this one… don’t rush, take a deep breath and think! Culley is an elite kick, can get up there for a good grab, and is tough in the clinches… I could go on but I’m stopping to breathe!

You’re referring to his capabilities generally, whereas I’m referring to his performance yesterday, which is the point of this exercise.

On reflection, I was probably a bit hard on Chandler, and revise my review to :

Excellent last quarter

Gawn - certainly never surrendered

Lever - back to reliable

Steele - was always steady

Chandler - tried but limited

K Pickett - prolific and exceptional

McDonald - confident and steady

Jiath - poor before injury

Lindsay - had some influence

Langford - needed more involvement

Sparrow - great third quarter

Windsor - important but restricted

Langdon -valuable hard running

Culley - very limited skills

Salem - rarely appeared safe

Fritsch - some exciting touches

Howes - was generally safe

Mihocek - had few opportunities

Sharp - pace helped occasionally

L Pickett - couldn’t get going

Petty - game to forget

Cross - one memorable possession

van Rooyen - what’s going wrong?

Tholstrup - excellent after first

It’s been a long season and the wet and windy conditions aren’t helping us…. Oh wait

how does getting engaged prevent rivers from laying tackles

Maybe he doesn’t want to make his fiancé jealous

There’s a theory that some players lose their sparkle after getting engaged, married or have kids… just saying for a friend

Rivers announced his engagement recently… just sayin’

Highly unlikely. I’d guess it’s more of an injury prevention type of situation than a behavioural issue.

But he was selected as an emergency

Rivers dropped and Sparrow retained…😳

True or a pisstake?

I was told this by one of our players today too
