Goodwin STILL IS a horrible judge of talent. And I’m scared he has too many yes men in his camp now. Blind freddy could see Bedford had talent and speed & that Jordan was an accumulator but knew how to position himself defensively at stoppages (we lack any defensive mids now). I’m drawing a long bow on this one, but Jayden Hunt would be handy up forward atm. In 2019/20 he at least lead up at the ball made a contest. Chaplin’s wouln’t even know how to spell the [censored] words “lead” & “present” . You just watch Goody back in his favourites this year and we’ll watch players with any form of spark or natural talent languish at Casey because they don’t fit into his “system”.

This was the start of the end. We had just shown Weideman the door and we recruited a “bloke” even softer and physically weaker than one we off loaded.

I can’t see it happening. We just don’t have any natural forwards who are in any sort of form! Fritsch competed better but can’t kick a goal!!

1000% coreect.

It was good to see Petracca pulling his hair out at the end of the game. Now he knows how we all felt having to watch/listen to him throw the club (he apparently loved after 2021) under the bus last August/September, maybe he could have a chat to Nathan Jones about what it actually means to put your body on the line. Question for George. What happened to Max Gawn resting or god forbid even playing forward? He looks to me like he has lost his arial game this year? Once upon a time Max loved floating forward to clunk a mark and at worst hook a few points? I’d take 1 out of 3 set shots inside 50, because it would at least drag a couple of Key Defenders to him so we could get it to ground and crumb a few goals? Or is that plan not complicated enough for our “Mastermind” Premiership coach.

Full disclosure. I love your analysis, but I just think alot of these ratings are boosted by junktime stats. Ie to use a cricket terminology. What do you value more. 30 runs against a new ball or 30 runs from a tailender when the balls dead and the games over?

Just started listing to the podcast, I’m 19 minutes in and when Binman said rivers had a good player rating, I nearly threw up! It shows me how rubbish this player ratings system is. The amount of horrible clangers “Trent” had. I’ve defended “Trent” to a mate for years. But I’ve had enough. This guy is hopeless. Find me a stat for how many times he [censored] himself and hospital handballs it to a team “mate” or when he takes 6 years to realise he has to kick it, or when he’s out & handballs back to a mate into traffic. You’ve got a a cannon for a leg!! [censored] USE IT for The Dees or go be Punter in the NFL, because it’s painful to watch at the moment! I encourage anyone to go watch “Trents” youtube highlights of 2021 and you’ll be shocked of how indecisive he is now.

Yeah. But 10 years ago that side had some spirit and grunt, it would probably beat this current 2025 piece of [censored]. I was at that Game in 2015. It’s the second best home & away win I’ve ever seen. The best was when we beat Hawthorn in 2016 just ahead of when Jack Watts kicked the sealer on QB in 2017. Funnily enough when Fritsch kicked that dribbler last year at the G that was an epic win. Pitty the only dribbling he is doing this year is the type that Bruce Willis was doing in 7 monkeys

Not only did he hold the midfield and defence together as Mr Fix it. It shows you just can’t replace a selfless team man. The side just lacks any spirit without him & with ANB gone we have absolutely no on field leadership. You forget he ran that Podcast with Gawn and as much of a gimmick it may have appeared to be to the older generations. It bought that group together.

And if he was. He’d still beat Howes 1 on 1.

That was a 126-1 live bet at half time.

Been saying it since 2022.

Thanks mate. She’s currently getting some rest after a prolonged labour. Still looks more likely than our half back line.

Smartest thing I’ve done this season is back the Suns to beat us by 60+. Dumbest thing is I only put $10 on it at 16-1

My 41 week pregnant GF in labour would be a better option of Half Back than Rivers or Salem at the moment.

This is so much easier to use!

Do you mean 5 kicks 1 handball for the game?

God that was enjoyable. Miserable hawks fans leaving at 3/4 time!

We thought that last year and Goodwin bought him straight in.

We lost 2 mid to small sized defenders and we don’t have anyone else who can play that position, without reshuffling our midfield. Sestan, Laurie, Woewoden. Hard on Sestan because he hasn’t played. But tell me what position Laurie & Woey are best suited to at AFL? Not even they know because they are either subs or just throw into whatever hole we have. When Laurie was drafted the talk was he was better than Bowie (clearly not). Maybe it’s time the club gives these players position in to nail down?

OUT- Jeffo, Tmac, Howes, Woey IN- AJ, May, Langford (To start), Laurie/Melk As george suggested on the latest Podcast. We have no depth and it’s showing. FB Salem May Lever HB Bowey Petty Rivers C Langdon Oliver Lindsay HF Langford JVR Sparrow FF Spargo AJ Petracca R Max Chandler Viney B Turner Sharp Henderson Fritsch Laurie/Melk SUB

Tracc would at worst get knee’d in the spleen..

Ever seen a small forward be a Ruck Coach?

If you can’t see the club failed to capitalise on our only legitimate Premiership window in 60 years by not recruiting a ready made KF. Then there’s no hope for you.

The fact the AFL have now owned the stadium a few years now and this still happening, it’s shows how they give a [censored] about fans that go.
