Docs Demons

With you on this but we are talking about the MFC who are very amateurish at best. Volunteers at local clubs do better than what we do unfortunately.

Just watched Jones speak in announcing the young player and he struggled to get 2 words together. Love the bloke and how he played but gives me the shivers when speaking. Hope he can get the message across better as the mid coach!!

I'd be getting rid of most of the so-called AFL listed players who were pretty ordinary for Casey. Acknowledge some are for depth but boy you wouldn't want to have many,if any in your senior side. 15 listed players and they couldn't beat Frankston. Shows we lack decent depth.

Happy with that.

He was just OK Dazzle but hence the reason I reckon we let Chocco go. His skills are shocking along with most of the players. JVR should have taken at least 5 pack marks when in front but just dropped the ball. Even his snap goal early he should have marked it. We need a skills/development coach ASAP so JVR and the others like Rivers, Sparrow, Howes etc. can work on their skills at the start of preseason and be ready big time for 26. Very disappointing season with the close losses which I put down purely to our lack of skill with ball in hand.

We should stay calm on young White. It will take some time for him to become an AFL player. Couple of preseasons and learnings at Casey will help and I hope he does make it and be nearly as good as his old man.

I know the world has changed but back in my day playing if we had the AFL as it is now back then no one would be playing.

Honestly if they both want to go then let them. No use having players that are not invested. Let them dump kick the footy somewhere else.

Another was the fact he will not miss driving to Casey. This is a big concern for us in obtaining a new coach and players. Our new home has to be announced soon or again we will be left with the dregs as far as recruiting is concerned.

I honestly reckon we have a big chance in this game. Naughton in my view is a downhill skier and has shown in past when pressured goes to water. Darcy though is an issue. IMO it all comes down to the Mids. We win that battle and lessen the supply to Dogs forward line we will be right in it. Their backline is poor but so is our forward line. Win the middle and hope to hell a forward or two play out of their skin and we will have it.

Spot on BBB. I mentioned at half time in the game day thread that it was the worst game I've seen all year. 2nd half was much better, and Petty actually got in front and held onto his marks. Much better half by him. All we need now is for concrete hands to start taking grabs (in 2 hands be nice) and have a good last few games to set him up for next year. All in all a good performance and hardly had a poor player.

That first half would be the worst footy I have seen all year. We deserve to be where we are at as there is no system at all and when we are free, we just turn it over. JVR needs to get rid of those concrete hands or just stop playing footy as he looks way below the standard. Same with Petty. I suppose we have a half to get better.

What about Dermie. Just as bad. Can't stand the bloke.

We are playing well but when it goes near JVR and Petty it's just a straight turnover for the Saints. Those 2 need to lift big time in the 2nd half. I'll be the first to cheer when either of them take a pack mark.

Just shows how bad our skills are. We really need a good skills coach over the off season.
