Maybe be sure of your stat's before going off, roo had 3 disposals 2 marks and 1 reaping contested mark, and 1 goal, in the 1st quarter, 3 disposals in the second, so that's 6 disposals in the first half, but of course people like you just make stuff up as they go along, just to suit there narrative, this is one of pet hates

Wow, you’ve certainly got too much time on your hands, and you’re my hero.

Incidentally if you have so much free time you might want to check on your grammar, spelling, and punctuation.. just sayin’

JOEY BABY with your 3 word critique of ROO I read it as he only came good in the last Q ,I also have been really QFO of the pile on on ROO over the last few weeks ,he takes either the 1 st or 2nd defender now others on the forward line shine ,he seems to me like a ripper of a young man who will sacrifice his game for the good of the team .I think one DEMONLANDER had him as their best on ground .In my humble opinion I thought he played a 4 q game not as I read you ,came good in the last Q .PS lay off the cheap shot about spelling play the ball not the man JOEY BOY .

JVR had 3 possessions at 1/2 time and was significantly better and more important in the second half, including taking that inspirational mark , therefore my completely appropriate reference to him atoning , and your pffing of it was totally ill founded

Exactly how I feel when he is the commentator. Rightly or wrongly I think he cannot resist saying something negative about the club.

It may have something to do with his regular references to ‘a number of my friends are Dees’ supporters’

You may be significantly more knowledgeable than NFI but you still haven’t responded to my question, so for the time being I’m still agreeing with your wife.

ROO

LAST Q ATTONEMENT

JOEBOY NO CLUE

Judging by your spelling and your comment I suspect you have NFI what atonement means… just sayin’ for a friend

Title says it all

There has been an obvious vacuum beyond Gawn and Viney… up until now, and it’s been a serious worry because of aged or inexperienced applicants.

HOWEVER

In the last few weeks, and particularly after yesterday’s game , I have great faith that there’s excellent work being progressed by former Melbourne Storm champion Ryan Hofmann in the leadership development area and a number of younger players have now presented themselves as viable and worthwhile options:

Turner, Chandler, Bowie and even Sparrow ( whose last 2 years have been forgettable ) would all be worthy additions to leadership roles for the next 10 years.

Gawn - important without dominating

Langdon - important running game

Fritsch - some inspiring moments

Turner - aggressive and inspiring

Chandler - wonderful second half

Windsor - missed crucial tackles

Mihocek - vital bullocking work

Sharp - impressive first half

Lever - the defensive general

Tholstrup - come of age

Heath - limited game time

Petty - crucial brain fades

Taylor - didn’t seem fazed

Culley - more rounded performance

Langford - seemed more assured

Steele - huge man crush

vanRooyen - last quarter atonement

Jefferson - an almost game

K Pickett - excellent team focus

L Pickett - some genius moments

Howes - silent but deadly

Laurie - sadly without influence

Sparrow - wonderful tagging game

JVR to the back line.. he’s useless up forward

Time for the moose up forward

Thank goodness for Casey that Jefferson will be back in next week

Also not sure why MonizWakefield hasn’t come on,they’re blissfully unaware he’s missed a year of football 🤦‍♂️

Do the commentators know something we don’t, as they’re concerned about what happened to the ‘Casey’ Demons when they move to Caulfield

I noticed at training yesterday that BM wasn’t moving freely at times, and I wouldn’t actually mind the club making the call to include Jefferson, Heath, and Kentfield in a devil-may- care statement for the future. All 3 players deserve to be selected .

Even if BM’s not injured, I feel neither he nor JVR should be retained this week anyway.

Tell me joeboy, how do you appraise J.VR s form and ability?

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

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

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

It makes sense to play Taylor when you consider none of Bowey, Jiath, Salem or Rivers are available. Go well young fella.

Jiath was training fully with the main group

Almost certainly Taylor will be debuting this week, judging by his defiant and imposing training performance this morning.

On another note, Heath is such an imposing size and seriously made JVR look puny when standing next to each other.

For those concerned about Fritsch’s fitness for this week, he was training unhindered with the main group, as was Bowie, though it’s unlikely the latter has the conditioning yet to be considered for senior selection

Rivers training with the main group and seemingly unhindered

I spoke too soon as he’s taken aside for some stretching work

Yep I think he was mentioned on the podcast this week as being a poor ball user.

In saying that, we would have been facked without him.

You mean MORE facked?

I am starting to see this translate on field. The number of passes Kozzy and Trelly do by foot is astronomically more than previous seasons. It comes off a fair bit of the time as well.

On the contrary, I thought Kozzy missed a disturbingly high number of targets on the weekend

Essendon fans turned out in force and they were on a 17-game losing streak, AND they travelled to Adelaide. Carlton fans, Richmond fans, they all turn up. Yes they have bigger fanbases but this is more of a reason for our fans to turn up to every match regardless of ladder position or recent results.

If I had a dollar for every time one of our players says they love hearing us fans I’d be a rich b!ttch.

It matters to them.

I love your work Ghosty but I have a serious question:

Who needs whom more to ‘show up’, the supporters or the players?

The players are paid extravagantly for playing a game, the supporters buy pies and hope for a happy ending

By the end of the year XT will have replaced TMAC in the 1s. Developing nicely.

I agree about the replacing idea but no idea how anyone can know if he’s developing nicely .. sample size is almost non existent
