thanks

Just saw on the website that they are in fact closed

I was told by another supporter that the gates at casey will be closed to the public. Nothing official but wondering if true or false. 2 of us were thinking of going, but not if it is closed.

No. Glenhuntly was in the federal league. Their reserves and underage teams played at Lord's reserve. St Anthony's also played at Lords Reserve but on the next oval.

yes Kingsley was still there when I left to live in Frankston Many games with Pat at Lords reserve in 68/9 Ran into him at a wedding years later. Went to school behind where the admin building will be at Caulfield High

Go the mighty hunters

Thanks so much. Great summary Comment re Viney playing as defensive small forward when resting? One of the best ways to break lines is by runners and handball. No so much who gives the handball but the number of handball receives(rarely see the stats). Langdon is the perfect example. Any of the newer guys or improvers stand out in that regard?

Consensus seems rather than that main goal scorer, if the two tall forwards (whoever they be) get 60 between them, that should be enough.

Yes average rather than consistently would have been a better word. I agree you can't kick 15 every week. Some weeks it will be 10 and others 20. Thanks for the input. i agree we'll get across the board other contributors. I was just hoping the watchers might suggest who the most likely 70 goal other contributor would be. 330 goals is about what you would need to get in the top 8 on last years ladder.

Our backline will be the best in the comp and keep sides to minimal scores. Our midfield/ruck should be as good as any and have depth. We need to consistently kick 15 goals a game. That's 330 for the season. Picket and Fritsch will kick 80 to 90 of those. Where do the track watchers see the rest (240) coming from? Who kicks how many? If someone else kicks 70 then we are half way there.

The last hunched type forward I remember was peter hudson. With his broad hunched shoulders, bum pushed back, not many defenders could stop him marking. Hope he is somewhere near as good.

How does the Casey training system work both pre season and in season. At some point do they take say 12 melbourne players who are obviously not in line for senior selection and train one day a week with the casey players. Can't imagine a Casey team could gel without some kind of joint training. Or do they just invite 6 -10 Casey players to Melbourne training one day a week.

Have a look at his face in the 2km time trial on the website. That steely determined look compared with the others running behind. When the game is on I don't think you need to worry about a depressed look.

He'll be just what we need to take over from ANB. He is a hunter. He tackles hard and runs to every contest and will make Viney's role much easier. With him, AMW and Viney we will have extreme small/medium player pressure second to no other club. The forwards will love him with his disposal which is a huge plus over ANB.
