58er

Salo less distance covered by a fair way.

That's stating the obvious chook but Salo would make less errors but have greater distance covered no doubt.

Hasnt stopped a myriad of D/Lers having a winge about info re Casey Wonder how many went to the link on our website? BTW on the "All the Goals" there was a few at the game down the southern end Who said it was a closed event? If it was posted somewhere their needs to be followed up for the future by the Casey Fanstics!!!! My suspicion is they may have been friends and / or relatives.

Club is prob still negotiating I at a guess Reckon it may be the Hawks !

Thinking of Chandler

No AFL game is one that is counted practice match is not. Nor AAMI game.

Are they on their own I think not with the Blues anymore?

Think it's Dr's call with May. Not his that's not possible with concussion surely! Viney has been planned I think for this Casey game for 3/4 weeks since being ruled out of Round1. Good that Hibbo has more match practice and Melky starts his match fitness now. 2019 was going to rear it's ugly head maybe but Burgo and Club are being cautious/conservative With most injuries. Lockhart is 2/3 weeks away also so is Joel Smith.

No we are naming squad on Friday I believe

One has to look at 2020 form and Hibbo does not deserve to be dropped for that at all in fact he was one of our very good defenders along with May Saleme late in year and Rivers in the last 5 games. Think of what happened this time last year as he mourned his brothers loss. Very courageous effort in 2020 and IMO let no one down. Although injured Up to now he has played 1 and a half games last week in best 3 so firm good on both areas. Contrast this with Melky who had poor seasons in both 2019 ( injury also) and 2020 and has hardly played a quarter so far. Who should or deserves to replace Hibbo LC? We have to be careful that we don't go too tall for Fyfe and Taberner vs Freo.

Which don't you agree Bobby ? Tigers or Burgo?

Will happen and should NOW no time to waste. Bowey should play and Petty should come in for Tommo also. Gives us greater flexibility as he clan go forward and Tommy back. If we don't do thus we don't improve and we all know we need to. Trust me Goody hasn't got time on his hands and couple of other changes should happen on the wing and up forward.

No sorry!!!

Stay safe Kev

I happen to believe that our 6 draftees from 2019 Draft ( Jacko Kossie snd Riv) snd 2020 ( Bowey Laurie and Rosman) are just as important In development as our Top 6 AA boys for our Club. Mist we're selected because if their skills in the game which we are deficient in. Disposal is our Achilles heal and Riv Kossie and Jake and Bailey are very skilled and smart small men who will add pace and cleverness to our playing stocks in the next fire years. Jacko was a No 3 draft pick too good to Ignore and has really exciting ball skills pace and handball for his size and age. Riv is a very rounded player off half back for his youth s as Nd plays like a 100 gamer on his composure and minding his opponent. I witnessed his magnificent almost BOG game vs GWS last year at the Gabba and no way would we have won without this young Tyro performing st such a high level. I even believe Riv ( and Jake and Bailey ) are kids who could end up as Captain of our Club or Vice in the future. Fraser Rodman has aN upside in size at 194cm, pace, marking and his endurance and tank plus he's not a bad kick and at 18 yrs had an AFL body to develop quickly on the wing especially. He will develop once he pickS up all the things on how to play st AFL level. Kossie is an excitement machine running tackling and performing at a high pace and enthusiasm and once he adds composure he will start to fulfil his potential and be a consistent goal contributor and assister in Ours our attacking plans for the next decade or more. All very important each one snd this group are vital for our future and I have high hopes for all which could add the pieces of The puzzle for our next long awaited flag. May they all have long and successful careers at the Dees.

PAUL RB No it was the Brisbane Lions That beat the Bombers in 2001 And Pies in 2002and 2003 for the 3 peat. Port finished on top of the ladder but choked in Finals till 2004 when they were too tough for an injury laden Lions outfit at the end of their magnificent run. Choco was Their Coach Till after they were beaten in the 2007 GF by The Cats who broke a 44 year drought and record GF margin of 117 points. In 2009 Choco was replaced at Porg and has been Assistant at GWS and Tigers And Werribee VFL team in the meantime. Lets all hope he Can guide us and Upskill the players to success.

Well said KK and congratulations James ( my middle name) good luck and you deserve all you get from the hard training and effort you have out in. Hope fully a long and successful career with the Dees and you are ready and raring to join the boys in a journey we all don't know what it will provide. Such a thrill to play your first game on the G on the opening round with all the excitement but just play your role in the team and we will end up in front. All the best James and go Dees.

Sorry you can't be back to go to the G for the game Kev I hope you and your family are safe ( in all aspects) and can get back ASAP. Hope you can get it on TV or a radio broadcast. I am flying down from Brisbane Sat and going home Sunday to see my immediate family ( sister binlaw and niece ) and to go to the game. Keep healthy and try and get back on one of the Govt flights If and when they become available. Don't quite know the rules re quarantining other than 2 weeks (14 days) is the go. The payment details I am not sure about of course. Go the Dees, Kev.

Easy Move ANB to wing where his running is suited and Kossie takes a HFF. Vanders is too slow for a wing now and Gus comes in on the bench. I don't think there is any way our side will be selected with Vanders whose form In the AFL and fitness are doubtful IN and GUS OUT. Hunt gives us a versatility forward or back to run off and deliver deepish into the forward line or even score! maybe.

Good enjoy our Round 1 win !!! DZ

MD don't know what your quals are but the players are not idiots like you inferred. Leading a group of Players does not require a degree!!! good footy knowledge ability to relate to people and a lead by example mantra is not negotiable! Simple pick the best candidate and hope for a bit of luck with injuries, etc.

Not 17 fit but 21!!!!

They won't scan on the code Dr. its not a paper ticket it's electronic!

Prob not but Clarkson was gunning for it and maybe it hasnt got through. Makes sense though .

Pity the AFLW does not involve Dees vs Freo till Sunday night!!! Last I heard.
