His tackling and intensity was a lot better then I've seen this year. I'm hoping it's all starting to click. I would have like him to have stuck a few grabs but his intent was certainly there. I haven't written him off as some have on here, he's obviously a kid that needs time and more physical progression with his body. He's played 26 games in the VFL. Talk to someone like Paul Roos and he'll tell you that the right development for a young key position player is certainly to bide their time in the reserves and build up as much experience and good habits as possible. It won't be an issue for me if he stays I the VFL for the rest of the year unless he completely bangs the door down. I doubt he plays this year but next year should be the aim for him to play at least 10-15 games at senior level.

After watching Casey, no changes at all.

No one put their hand up at all. Go unchange for next week.

You've missed the sarcasm in my post.

For like couldn't turn up until the last quarter.

JVR is a better ruck then Fullarton. The commentary on here with people thinking Fullarton is actually a ruckman of so far off the mark. He's literally a 200cm forward flanker that tries to attempt a few hitouts every now and then. If you think Fullarton would have made any difference as a 2nd hand ruckman then you would have been in for a shock.

Defence has sucked tonight

I do remember this lol

Max Gawn - Stop tapping it to a bloody Carlton player.. costing us all night.

It's literally Brisbane game all over.

Copping exactly what we deservesd Campaigners have genuinely learnt nothing from wer weather football. McGovern is absolutely embarrassing our forwards with zero pressure. Laughable to watch.

Win a [censored] clearance Melbourne. Literally the Brisbane game all over again off thr back of exactly 5 day break.

You know you're in for struggle when Pinonett is dobbing them from 45.

5 day break in the wet? Eek...

Don't play dumb. You and I know it was clearly directed at me and Moonshadow. How you dragged me into this based off a clapping reaction is absolutely beyond me. Cut the personal [censored] out and grow up, if people are [censored] bagging training threads then simply put them on ignore.

That's the exciting part, him coming back certainly gives us the run and dash we've missed and also strengthens our backline.

I never said to anyone they did a [censored] job at reporting training. I actually asked a footy related question if you go back to my post which was, were there any noticeable changes regarding player changes and that's it. I understand why people get frustrated because some do come in here purely for the footy content and have to scroll past the other stuff. I agree that people saying it's [censored] reporting is not acceptable, what I don't agree with is that very person getting personal with the name calling. It isn't a once off and she has a history of it when someone has disagreed with her in the slightest and yet continues to get away because the mods thinks its all a good joke.

I was calm and confident we would beat Geelong last week. This week I'm not so confident and that's purely off the back of a 5 day break and nothing else. Carlton have also brought in some solid ins and should not be underestimated. They've brought in Hollands after a week off who'll be fresh so this could really go down to the wire. It's good to have Bowey back. We've underestimated how important he is to our back half and how much of a loss he's been this year so far.

Yeah I didn't mind Deakyn to be honest. Actually surprised we didn't give him a go. The games I watched of him at VFL level he seemed consistent and I thought with him being a running defender he could have been a good one two punch alongside Bowey. He was also pretty composed and measured down back. I remember one of the games I watched he completely shut down Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti and i thought that was going to be the next step into AFL level. Won Casey's best and fairest last year but was unfortunately still delisted. Coaches obviously think very differently to us nuffy fans.

Disposal by foot isn't great for starters. They're obviously looking for a consistent performance from AMW. Whilst the stat sheet may look good on his behalf it's his ball use and lack of composure at times at VFL that stands out the most. In a high paced pressure environment at AFL level this simply doesn't stand up. Still think he's better use up forward.

"Goon" "Moonface" Pull your [censored] head in WCW. There's having a debate and disagreeing with people, and then there's you who constantly gets personal like this when someone remotely questions anything in the slightest that may differ to your opinion. Not once did anyone get personal with you but here you go again showing your true colours. Some people like to come on training threads purely for the footy content and some like to come for a bit of banter, that's fine. If some prefer either then absolutely fine, there is no right or wrong way about it. Why you feel the need for name calling is absolutely beyond me. Sort this stuff out @Demonland

Deven Robertson is a genuine potato. I've never seen an AFL player butcher the footy as much as he does. No thanks.

We need you down there at G paddock fence..

So no training reports regarding any player changes other then Bowey?
