the rumours thread
What about Latrelle Pickett as our 3rd or rookie pick. It'd make Kossie happy.

CASEY: Elimination Final vs Williamstown

Charlie Spargo Contract
Spargo is one of few players who doesn't panic and kick indiscriminately when going into our forward 50. He always lowers his eyes and finds someone. I'd rather him than a lot of others who just bomb it long.

Steven May's Future
The Saints games ended Goody's time with us. You're 100% right, he did nothing to stop the onslaught. That and the 7.24 game earlier on were signs his time was up.

POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
I agree with all of this. I loved how Rivers played in the centre.

POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
I have been very, very frustrated with his continued selection. He is speedy, but lacks footy smarts. I wanted to see wanted other players like Sestan, Brown etc.... I know Laurie has had a run, but he needed a string of games to grow confidence. Our development has been lacking and I reckon it's because of complacency and arrogance from the coaching panel.....

TRAINING: Thursday 21st August 2025
Trac drops it too high when he snaps them so it is skews left/right.

PREGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
I reckon watching it on telly is the go. I have no confidence that we'll play a blinder. I remember a commentator years ago saying that it's hard to trust the Dees, you never know how'll they'll play. Surely pride and honour come into play here. They knocked us out of finals contention prior to 21 and then recently the Maynard and Moore dramas. Moore twice last year - Trac and Kossie's suspension that cost us any chance in the first 3 games of the season. You'd think him playing round one against GWS and we win, then perhaps we win a couple more..... I will be so annoyed if he gets suspended for the 3rd time in 3 years. I hope we try some youth or at the very least some positional changes eg May at FF......, but we are so predictable and conservative. I really hope we don't persist with Trac, Clarry and Viney onball all game and bomb it long only for a rebound.

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
Depends on the next coach. We could send the next 2 first rounders to Freo. Although i understand his partner is from Geelong so I hope he doesn't go to the Cats.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn
That's what I'm finding so annoying it's like the football equivalent of Groundhog Day. We could've tried some of the younger guys, moved May to FF and experimented especially in the second half. But no just keep the same structures and keep getting the same results. We are so conservative and predictable. Just bomb it long and they rebound and goal. I've got 7.21 and the St.Kilda loss etched into my brain and we really keep doing the same stuff over and over and keep selecting the same players. We are so predictable.

My 3 word player analysis V Hawthorn
I agree with everything you've said. I've still got a small hope that McVee stays, but history suggests if they haven't signed by now they're gone. I don't know why we persist with Chandler, Sparrow and Sharp they are all VFL material.
-
POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn
Other than speed I'm dumbfounded to know what he brings to the team. He appears to have no game sense or footy IQ. He is a yoyo player gets dropped then comes back, but hasn't improved whilst at Casey. I was hoping we'd be adventurous and play some kids while resting Sparrow, Viney etc....
-
PREGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood
I really hope we play some younger guys like Brown, Laurie, Jefferson and Kentfield. We need to see what they've got. Rest Viney, Van Rooyen, Chandler and Sparrow.

GAMEDAY: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn
I've never been a fan, he goes missing too much. I prefer if we tried others

3 goals in 3 quarters I wish we could kick some goals

GAMEDAY: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn
So why do they keep playing him??? We know what he can and cant do, why did he get selected, surely we 2 games to go try some other players. We need to know if the younger players have something. As supporters you can't keep selecting the same playe Why were we so conservative at selection. Picking Sharp again instead of trying someone else was insipid. May far enough get him to 250. But why not rest Viney and a couple of others and try a different combo onball. I thought when they sacked Goodwin they'd try something different but no just keep the sameteam and accept a different result, what madness.

PREGAME: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn
We are so boring. You'd think we'd try some younger players in a dead rubber, but no we keep playing yo yo and bring in May and Sharp. The selection panel are lame.

PREGAME: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
It's annoying to say the least. Put games into Verrall/AJ etc instead of Campbell who has zero forward craft. The word is someone is going to debut so it'll either be Campbell/Adams. I hoping it's Adams, if it's not win, lose or draw it's another wasted opportunity in a game that has no significance for us this year. Sounds like ur trip was amazing. It's what twice in a couple of years. I haven't been on here for a while because of password issues.
