Roost it far

6.50 would be heaps better but does that give people time to get home from work and then to the footy? Is that too early for prime time tv? 7.50 is good because it gives you time to grab a well priced, good meal rather than wasting money at the ground on crud

I’m with you, I actually think the Sydney game is the toughest.

You know you’re old when 7.50 on a Friday night is too late.

You can’t talk Premiership without talking about Melbourne

Let Kozzie go for the odd hanger, FFS the funs beaten out of everything these days. We handed control to accountants, lawyers and bankers and it ain’t supposed to be that way

I still wonder if Oliver will actually play

Big fella, big fella, big fella!

Thanks for your observations. I’ll stop critiquing the kid as it clearly offends some. It’s not meant to although my tone isn’t always great

It’s not saying that. It’s saying ignore the noise you know you’re right. I’m actually not bagging him, this is a cut throat business and I don’t see enough strengths for this guy to become a regular player at the level. You may believe differently and that’s fine. Isn’t this a discussion forum? you’ve resorted to abuse as your form of discussion I’m just stating what I see. Maybe watch a few Casey games and give us your view of his strengths

Schache, c’mon champ keep up

Kids on his last chance, as long as he goes when it’s his turn I’m happy.

He’s bigger enough to impose himself. The Pies aren’t big

He’s Watts Mark 2 by that description

You said that not me. I stayed that of course I compare them. They’re the 2 young key forwards we’ve recruited. The fact you no longer want to discuss this is a relief to me

As I’ve said I’d love him to prove me wrong and that my opinion is worthless. I just see what I see. And of course I compare him to JVR as that’s the comparison of young forwards we have. Jefferson can’t yet hold his shoulders up, he looks beaten before he begins

JVR strengths contest and physicality marking kicking nous Jefferson strengths marking when alone

I’m a believer in TDK coming on board. Turn him into a forward alongside JVR.

It’s how he’s moving that concerns me most. He makes Gawn look fast. Darcy Moore would run off him like a gleeful kid from his grandma. You talk structure like Brown will add to that, care to explain? JVR did just fine on Weitering by the way

I’ve watched Jefferson’s last 5 games. He does have a reasonable set of hands, maybe knitting could be his thing? ………apologies I’m advance to all those shocked at my criticism.

I’ll admit I’m a hard judge of players. I also use my feeling of a players impact more than the stats. Sure Jordan got plenty ball today but he’s just so vanilla. Could he replace ANB? That’s about his best chance and we know how hard that’s going to be for him.

Poor player management. If Smith can’t lock away a spot after 3-4 weeks then Schache deserves 3-4 weeks.

Schache is miles in front atm

It’s a VFL game. Name a clear strength he has and who does he replace at the level?

For an AFL listed player and looking at the way he moves I’d have to disagree. Maybe ok for a VFL player but he should retire effective immediately. I was a bit harsh on Jordan but what I’m getting at is he’s got no great strength to bring to our game.

Turner doing alright. Jordan’s not the answer, very average Casey win by a point
