I noticed Tom Mitchell throwing his head back a couple of times and rewarded for it, they have a couple of stagers in their team which is really annoying poor Kozzie can’t get a free even when he is in a head lock. Umpires are confused enough don’t need players flopping on the ground for no apparent reason.!!!

What a great day to be at the G arrived early to soak up the atmosphere rugged up for a cold June day blue sky sun shining through jackets coming off in droves. Big Freeze entertaining, ground looked pristine, pie was hot, crowd was building nicely bit of crowd noise, all the regulars were seated around us a bit like an odd family, feeling anxious and edgy. Siren goes we are off the roller coaster continued to gather speed as we began to dominate the game without putting them way, exhilarating we were so good in every way but score board pressure, the Pies crowd were subdued because they knew as we knew we were the better side today. When they Booed Grundy we all clapped and cheered like our lives depended on it and when the final siren sounded we all erupted like mad things clapping and singing our lungs out. Two huge crowds this year and we have won them both. Our team stood up, some brilliantly but all assisted and stuck to the game plan, well done Players, Coaches, Demon Army the Big Freeze No.9 and the wonderful brilliant Melbourne Supporters you all did us proud.❤️💙!!

Agree with Fanatique today.!!

GtG Dees were well represented and very loud when Pies booed Grundy we were able to cheer them out. What a game, great to see our supporters out in large numbers and so loudly supporting the boys.!!

Has this ever happened before full house and neither team announced 22 hrs before the game, quite baffling- you post first, no you post first, NO YOU POST FIRST.!!!!!!!!

Jed must be struggling without Tomlinson and Turner holding down key back roles, certainly puts the pressure on Addams and Jefferson with Brown and TMac both out yet had we kicked straight we could have been right in this. Comeon Casey.!!!

Thanks Andy that was a very entertaining and informative interview you got Troy to open up and provide an insight into each of our defenders young and experienced his knowledge and expertise gives me great confidence that our youngsters are in great hands and will be ready to go once they get their opportunities, very comforting.!!

Thanks Kev and all posters very informative and entertaining as usual, hope Clayton and Hibbo hot to trot next Monday. Really looking forward to how we stack up against the Pies.

To be honest seeing Daisie in Cats colours creeped me out and has no place on our website. Is that to harsh.!!

How did he go DD.?

I think Drysdale meant that he was signed until 2025.!!

I really liked the look of JVR on Friday night he has footy nous and steely determination great teamwork and kicks goals and he really earnt this nomination. Well done young man, so glad we didn’t rush him last year it has paid off in spades. Looking forward to a long career in the Red and Blue.!!!!

Well it was a good night at the G not to cold, pies were hot and fries crispy we arrived a bit earlier than usual. 7.50 start just to late, almost 50,000 was a tad disappointing given the way the media were pumping the Blues up. The lady next to me thought our players looked like they were on Valium early but we perked up and with Tomlinson in to take the heat our whole backline lifted and held sway all night. Tracc was imposing has quick hands and high footy IQ superb all round game, how good to have a fit Salo back. 59 inside 50’s to 39 seemed about right if we can get the forward 50 connection right and accuracy back to where it needs to be could have been a percentage booster. Judd and Roo are both very smart footballers they constantly surprise me. Mind you some of our early kicking killed our momentum and from some of our more experienced players. Never felt threatened all night but how good would it be to have Big Harry running around in our forward line, have to get Benny fully fit for our run at the finals, shoulda won by more but really enjoyed singing the song again. Pleasant trip home and watched the replay. Good night.!!

Judging from the stats and comments we have some good depth at Casey JJ to good for VFL, Laurie, Woey, Schache look ready to come in when needed. Deakin Smith, Howes starting to get amongst it, whereas AMW, Sestan and Addams fair way to go as is Jefferson. Is Turner carrying something as he appears to have dropped off and the Big question is Benny Brownhe appeared to stop getting touches in the second half?? A really great win by Casey up at the home of the Sharks despite their monster ruckman dominating the midfield. Well done team that was a great effort.!!!

6 - Tracc 5 - May 4 - Gawn great second half 3 - Lever 2 - Salem 1 - McVee

True Redleg but we have Grundy 203 to help chop out and Max as a backup. We should be more mobile this week and let’s hope Fritta can take advantage. Plus Kozzie and Chandler are both due for a good game.!!

Happy with the Tomlinson inclusion as mentioned has been very solid down back at Casey and will help Jake play his intercept role, Hunter is an automatic inclusion and looking forward to what Joel can bring to our stagnant forward line. How good if he can clunk a few contested marks as well. Going to be a bit of a nervous watch at the G tomorrow night but aren’t they all the way we are playing. Hurry back Clayton and Hibbo.!!!! Plus a bit of forward manic pressure would help.!!

I think Jack mentioned Tom was one year older and that’s why Tom was Batman and Jack was Robin. Lol.!!

Well RDN that is some interview given that JV and Tom Mitchell have known each other since pre- school days and played together until U15’s. Mitchell was able to get Jack to open up more than I have heard previously, great listen. !!!

FND and he likes to win his own ball, could be a real handful if we can get him 100% fit and firing.

Ollie Verrall is a Ruck/ forward 200cm and hopefully still growing we have Addams coming through backline, good size, handy mark and accurate kick 196cm could be a May replacement in a couple of years.!!

A lot of effort there FT, Daniel Turner has been upgraded to the senior list in 2024. Thanks.

Thanks LH top effort as usual, I really like the look of Verrall and Sestan.!!

Yes 2017 I believe have a memory of Jack Watts doing something special.!!

I noticed in the Photo Gallery that a coach and trainer were holding Jake back from an altercation so I guess someone from the Werribee team really upset him.!!
