  1. Slipped that one in Tom ( PF) A beauty!! ( Bruce McAveney)
  2. " tall midfielder" interesting way to describe Harry! More like " tall defender " I would have thought. Liked HP from day ones draft highlight reel !!!
  3. Touch wood no maybe last year was good also but the BURGO factor still has 9 or 10 Matches to run!
  4. Is that an official line you have for the selectors or just your opinion Swooper? And does it involve Jake earning his spot or being " gifted" because he has according to you an unbelievable skill at passing the ball even though he only gets it generally under double digit times per game?
  5. Not this year Harry P is going along great guns and knows how to be a defender. Have liked HP since I first watched his highlight reel when first drafted. JTaylor another bow please! PS Reckon mid year recruit Daniel Turner will also be a a ripper. Maybe the heir apparent to Maysie once the best in the business retires. (Hopefully never) Just watch his highlights reel and agsin I say it there is a definite feel of the Mitch McGoverns in him! JT again ( watch this space)
  6. Great summary and so fitting of Maxy. I can't stop thinking of what MFC and Maxy might be by his200th match in 2 years time!!
  7. Perhaps because Harrison is like ANB ( full on SA) Kossie ( adopted SA sort of) and Jake (SA for 4 years) Tommy Sparrow (SA full on young gun) are all so comfortable with Adelaide Oval we produced a very good result up there with the Dogs and Lions wins. Just the tonic after the dip in form and a timely reminder to the footy world this Demon team is not going anywhere and a serious top4 contender for this 2021 flag.
  8. Spargo is more a forward than Jordon!
  9. Back to your best again Wdee Picking the Twos pretty straight forward!!
  10. Good in you Dr for including Kozzie in the best 6 Petty or he were the 6th.
  11. That would be ONE TALL FAR TOO MANY
  12. Bulldogs game is Round 20 NOT 21 !!!
  13. Yes OD but at least your post is a credible point. I have posted on other topics we need to be more positive in our approach take the game on more and give BBB a go at FG and perhaps get Lockhart in defence to get some running going. All our mids and defenders are to take the game on when we get the ball like vs Lions in second half.. Msybe a couple of players are tired but I think most of that is in the mind. Our best is easily good enough to best Port if we bring it.
  14. You sure know how to kill any positivity OD. You are back to your Old Dee approach with no Hope and only fear. Maybe have a rest criticising and being negative and look for the positives. Oh sorry you never make positive comments you always refer to the past and don't give any credit even when we play well. Don't even go letting Covid ( like 15,000 other Demons fans ) determine their decision making. Leopards don't change their spots. Time us running out for us oldies who can choose to sit and watch the world go by or join in and embrace what we are still able to do. Even Dan is in the recovery plan bandwagon team ( leading it in fact) and plenty of vaccine has been available to us all since its release earlier this year.
  15. But all three have kicked well earlier in the year We need a refresh on the things that hit us to Top earlier in the year. We have become defensive complacent and let our standards slip.
  16. Need to act quickly Look up Adelaide papers Power website and the Ticketek or Ticketmaster whichever it may be. our membership Dept ring as well. BTW our membership is up to 51, 924 and have about 500 to go to break our all time record. Wins vs Port Hawks and Suns should be a Monty to get there. !
  17. I think that you are looking at a half glass empty at Jack now, Yes he should have come back through the Casey team but the VFL has been variable and missing in action since May. I would think if he is no good this week he may have to be dropped but as we know he always plays some valuable footy when the finals are near. It's time for a lift again back to his April firm.
  18. Danny Z it's not a Saad issue that was just having a go at getting him as a player. One player isn't the solution it's a game plan and approach issue now that needs addressing. Its a firm of play and game plan now that we are too defensive. We have taken the game on but are now to timid and tidk free to change. Coaches have yo alter our approach or we will continue to not try and win games rather than just save them.
  19. We need a small forward who takes the game on and a more positive and aggressive approach from all defenders as well as link up handballs like in the 2nd half of the Lions game. At the QB vs Pies game we did not take the game on as we took the ball defensively around the boundary without centering the ball when easily done. Our game has become too stilted and risk free and the players are trying to save the not win it and no pressure is placed on the opposition. Give BBB a go and alter our defensive tactics ( maybe play Lockhart) to a more aggressive move the ball quickly approach plus play a bit more in the corridor should get us back on track. Cant believe the Coaches have not identified this YET it stood out like a sore toe vs Pies and has continued on frustrating everyone since. Our forward line has ability but the ball must come down quicker for them to be able to have the best opportunity to kick a winning score.
  20. If there was going to be any drills the ones TODAY are VIP. They are not Capt's Runs tasks. This KPF fiasco is bizarre. Goody and the Coaches are not responding to a situation. What was Browne doing on Sat night then? who is playing FF vs Power? Tommy must not lead so far up the ground if no one else tall is selected in the FF position. By goodness we have a lot at stake on Thursday night in Dimmas words "this is the most important week in the season". for the one Club we are invested in so heavily and lovingly so far in 2021.
  21. Well Goody can't give his usual inaccurate reports on any players in the Casey team. Overstates form and training far too much IMO.
  22. Yes but he was in the same boat as Tmac - available for a sort of song!!
  23. Good report have another coffee Rab you have earned it. Cant help thinking we missed a trick not playing BBB this weel, Giants backs not tall!! Need to start kicking better also for goal. Pressure is getting to all our players. Need to stop and re think how we got where we are at the moment.
  24. His disposal was horrendous snd he kicked the ball about 5,000 feet up in the air. No thanks Will Powell was a available this year and no one looked at him Would have hot him for nothing virtually snd is only in his early 20's!!!
  25. That's not true really but both rate highly.
