AFL Mid Season Draft 2021
One thing that stands out from the statistics is the fact that despite having two solid ruckmen and a number of players who we all rate as quality midfielders, we are still regularly trailing our opponents in clearance statistics. Should we look for someone who is capable of addressing this?

Good luck to him (except in about 4 weekβs time when they play us).

2021 Injury List
If thereβs one thing I have learned, it is that you donβt trust these injury lists that the AFL issued, especially if they donβt bear the imprimatur of Mr Burgess. This one omits to mention the likes of Mitch Brown, Jay Lockhart and AVB who were mysteriously missing from the Casey lineup last week as well as Harry Petty as mentioned above. Given that thereβs a VFL game on later today and we have yet to hear officially from the club, Iβm guessing that there are one or two mystery injuries about to be revealed.

CASEY: Rd 02 vs Richmond
They are doing VFL but arenβt limited to coverage of Casey games alone.

Breaking the hoodoo.
Hereβs a great story about Smithβs sacking from the perspective of player Ray Groom who later became Premier of Tasmania. Norm Smith was sensationally sacked by Melbourne 50 years ago

GAMEDAY: Rd 06 vs Richmond
Accuracy in front of goal would help too.

2021 Injury List

2021 Injury List
I donβt quite get the comment about the Weed and BBB getting through the VFL unscathed and then still having their names on the injured list with β1 weekβ and β1 to 2 weeksβ respectively. If that applies, surely youβre not going to play either AFL or VFL?

Christian Petracca declares his loyalty (2018)
My understanding is that Collingwoodβs salary cap situation is far from resolved and they would have to move a few pieces around to make a huge offer for Trac. Then the question is what do they offer Melbourne? Darcy Moore plus a future first rounder? From Melbourneβs viewpoint, I think the likely retirements and delistings leave us well placed to make fair and reasonable offers to retain our star players and remain active in trading.

POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs GWS
The way the game is played today with the longer quarters and with the way our team is set up at the moment, if the Cats try keepings out it will come a cropper. We almost beat them as it was last year. We would run over them if they tried it next week.

AFLW: QF vs Fremantle
Hopefully, we can get the kicking yips under control (both for the women and the men) and weβll enjoy our wins a lot more. Having said that, it was never in doubt! ?

The Tragic Story of Rod Owen
Rod was fantastic for us that year and if only he had remained fit for the entire season? Perhaps he might have overcome the difficulties of his youth at a new club and in a more caring environment. It was also a case of one door opens because if my memory serves me well, his injury and departure from the team paved the way for the debut of Allen Jakovich.
