Stormy is a dead set [censored]. Pots every single player at every opportunity. First year players or old.. bit like his mate Olisik.

Petty ahead of Oscar.. Quiet a statement there.

Jesus.. Only at Melbourne where a club has a bye and we still get [censored] injuries.

Can you elaborate more??

If Lever is out then Petty comes in for me. Time to start getting some games and development into him. Watched him play against Collingwood VFL game and his intercept marking and ability to provide drive from defensive 50 was fantastic.

[censored] hell.. potentially up there to be worse then the Joel Smith debacle.

What an interesting take. McCartney would see the frustration first hand as he would see our list similar to Geelong back in that golden period between 07 to 2011. Knows exactly how hard we need to work before we reach Mt Everest.

Careful............. ?

Such an overkill of a statement mate. Can you back this bizarre statement up with some form of proof? If Mahoney was so disgruntled about not getting the top gig then i highly doubt he would have stuck around.

The biggest line I have taken out of this is the players feedback around this issue. Changes have been made based on feedback from staff and players. And the big one to come out of that was McCartney now won't be involved with match day commitments on a full time basis but instead will be at Casey working on development on players and coaches. Am I the only who sees this as players not wanting much of McCartney come game day? Apparently Rawlings is highly respected amongst the playing hence why now he has been given a full time role on match day.

Sorry @Demonland I didn't see your thread and went and started my own. Feel free to merge mine in here.

What's happened to Daniel Cross? I thought he was our rehab coach?

Mid-season coaching revamp

Oh ffs... of course this happens week after we play them ..

Paul Roos wanted the Dom Tyson trade more then Taylor. He identified Tyson as a "future star" from watching him in his NEAFL days when he worked at the Sydney Swans Academy. The Toumpas instead of Wines was Todd Viney who was our recruiting manager for 12 months while we used that time to scout Jason Taylor. If we had kept Pick 2 we would have recruited Jack Billings who did his AIS program with us and thats where the interest started.

Lachlan Ash.

Sorry but don't think we'll be seeing Koby in the red and blue in the near future.

Stop it.. you are making far too much sense in this post ? Omac will be lucky to get another game this year if May and Lever put in those solid performance each week. They'll only get better with more match fitness too.

Then we both agree on that.

Keilty is already 24 and to be honest he hasn't improved that much from last year. Again, he's been on our list for 3 years for a return of 2 games. That's poor How long do we need to continue to hang o to these NQR standard players? I'm sorry but this might come across as harsh but we've barely gotten anything back in return from Keilty. He is a definition of a list clogger. Time to cash in and free some spots up for next year to at least grab a tall who will look like making an impact but also show that they have a future at this footy club.

Been on the AFL list for 3 years now for just 2 games. Have watches several VFL games this year and he's barely hitting the scoreboard as a CHF and hasn't really put his hand up at all for a AFL recall since he's been dropped. Sam Weideman, Tim Smith and Pruess are now ahead of him in terms of forward options. Doubt he'll make the cut at the end of the year

Hore will be an All Australian in a couple of years. Sparrow, was developing well at Casey until injury. Baker and Lockhart will be better next year after senior experience and a full pre season under their belts. Keilty will be delisted IMO.

Are those same listed players that you just listed (Kelly is an outright gun on another level) be still quality without the like of Dangerfield, Ablett, Rohan, Dahlhouse, Selwood, Taylor Hawkins, Touhey and Stanley?? These players have made them look good this year. Without those name those players bar Kelly are ordinary players. Those same names also got shown out and bullied by a bunch of 21-23 years olds in Oliver, Brayshaw, Petracca, Weideman, Viney, Salem and Harmes. The difference is their ability to continue to trade in experienced soliders fill gaps like Dahlhouse, Rohan, Dangerfield, Stanley, Ablett, Touhey. We need to take a leaf out of their book and continue to bring in more experience players to add on top of Oliver, Brayshaw, Petracca, Harmes, Weideman, Viney etc. Not blokes like 8 gamers in Pruess, but guys like May who have already played 100 games and can just come in and play a role immediately.

Go all the way back to Kane Tenace and David Spriggs also.
