  1. And in a hundred years we will be still unable to crack a finals spot in the final 16
  2. Different Role!?? Ah Mr Spock in Star Trek XIV!??
  3. I agree we are well into the insignificant moniker . The only way we can stop this is by winning 5 or 6 Games on end! Oh Wait we cannot even win two on the trot not even against a rag tag team of top ups an blow ins!
  4. And this is exactly the bullsheet that this club continues to put out! This is partially why I dedicated another thread ( You cannot be serious) which the mods merged with the changes vs Nth which has now been locked! Ok lets start 1 Misson said Garlett was Ok . In fact he is extremely doubtful! Don't say anything like he's right when clearly large doubts remain! This is bad PR 2 Wagner gets a game on no form at Casey 3 ANB plays well in consecutive weeks and is overlooked! 4 Players such as Tom Mc Donald continue to make the same errors which can comprimise a game and still keeps his place 5 Lamumba runs in more concetric circles than Gary " Crazy Horse" Cowton and is lacking affectiveness because of it 6 We Drop Frost for 1 then reinstate him next week! 7 Dunn should have played last week and the coaching panel admit error 8 The coach said we were tired last week< tired??? It is week 2 9 I wonder if the coaches are already feeling the heat in view of the shock loss and have gone into "Bikini" mode I.E cover yer ass! 10 The fact we had a shock loss last week shouldn't be a shock at all because we have players who think a win is worth breaking out the popcorn and cactus coolers thinking we have just won a Premiership! 11 I stiil say Weeds and Petracca need to play in the next week or two! a story worth repeating is Noel Mc Mahon ringing Al Flower requesting that Rob be allowed to play in the senior team at age 17. Alan Flower at first refussed citing that in his view Rob was too skinny and slight and that he was worried about him getting knocked around. Noel Mc Mahons philosophy was try him and see how he goes and if not ready put him back till he matures and no harm done. It is now legend that Rob Flower went on and played evry available game and neever got dropped to the 2s. Are we becoming too precious with our players?? I think the coaching Fraternity are already in somewhat of dishevelment. I hope that we can give a good account of ourselves this Sunday, but given how poor we were last week and given similar personel I cannot see it. We are all too easily pleased! Time to break out of the maelstrom and get into hard line breaking footy at all costs! End of RANT!
  5. Yeah well Coaches thought selection last week was just "Ginger Peach"
  6. Senior Footy???? which other Senior AFL club has he played for??
  7. Dumbfounded!!!! Can someone explain to me how Wagner gets a game on some very ordinary Casey Form?? Not too mention his preseasion form! I saw him out at Craigeburn and thought, gee needs a good year at Casey!!
  8. Oh ho ho you are kidding me!! Form, Injury and Matchups?? We have made an artform of getting this hideously Wrong! This week continued example! I have another one who is a much better rebounding defender who Has some form.. Mitch White!!
  9. A good In, Good King? Struggled to make any impact in the preseason games! Surely, he is not ready?? If he is ready then Weeds and Petracca should have played, so too Trengove!!
  10. B: Neville Jetta, Tom McDonald, Tomas Bugg HB: Matt Jones, Heritier Lumumba, Christian Salem C: Bernie Vince, Dom Tyson, James Harmes HF: Jack Watts, Aaron vandenBerg, Ben Kennedy F: Dean Kent, Jesse Hogan, Jeff Garlett Foll: Max Gawn, Nathan Jones, Jack Viney I/C (from): Clayton Oliver, Lynden Dunn, Billy Stretch, Sam Frost, Cameron Pedersen, Jack Grimes, Josh Wagner In: Lynden Dunn, Jack Grimes, Sam Frost, Josh Wagner, Billy Stretch Out: Colin Garland, Angus Brayshaw Really?? I gotta ask what is the Short, Medium and Long term plan! I went to great lengths to pick a team which might, in some respects have been outlandish to beat NORF! but I included Trengove, Petracca, Weeds et al made a stack of positional changesand dropped some very under performers! Outlandish, but illuminating! and brave! So I have to ask ... Where's the reward for effort?? ANB has been kiiling em at Casey but cannot get a Gig Wagner ( with all due respect and congrats) but given his Pre Season form I wasn't at all impressed! was anyone else?? Bugg? What has he done to deserve a game? he was attrocious last week? Harmes, Heritier,Mc Donald all shizen! last week! Matt Jones?? Mc Donald ?? extremely lucky! Kent/? the invisible man! Garlett, under an injury cloud regardless of what Misson says! So I reiterate my original question You cannot be serious!?? Gee we would want to win this!!
  11. Very Much Warming to the idea of playing a MELBOURNE SECONDS/RESERVES team from the old FITROY ground! The sooner we have a stand alone team the better. Let the Scorpions freeze their niagaras of at souless, Casey Fields as a stand alone VFL team!
  12. Sheeeit Left out Kennedy ( Brain Fade) Ok Here goes redrafted team with changes Vs Norf Here it is the "Fence" Blueprint to topple NORF! B GARLAND DUNN JETTA HB TYSON PEDERSON VINCE C TRENGOVE OLIVER LAMUMBA HF PETRACCA HOGAN KENNEDY F GARLETT WATTS WEEDS R/RR ROV GAWN JONES VINEY INTER VAN DER THING, SALEM, MC DONALD ( VERY VERY LUCKY) BRAYSHAW Also, Mc Donald becomes the swingman who goes preferably forward if opportunity exists ( and also where if he Ucks up, it has less chance of costing us a goal! EMERG Stretch, M Jones, Kent! Terlich
  13. Yeah well, stick with the same and get done by 150 plus pionts!! Onwards and upwards!! Bring on the changes I say!! both positional and personel! We are far too conservative in these matters
  14. fROM TWO PREVIOUS POSTS In Answer to your questions Why can a club like Western Bulldogs be able to afford a stand alone team and us not?? If this club really wants tro get anywhere it will "Find" this money and make it happen! Profesional football clubs are biting the bullet and reaping the benefits ( Bulldogs again) Others might know how much extra money iot takes and the answer if verified might surprise you Angry at Casey! Re Ground ,well ,do you really think we have a solid supporter base of supporters at Cranbourne and environs?? If Punt Rd is out of the question and I don't see how it would be Why not consider Princess Park or even Victoria Park if available , better surfaces, better atmiosphere and surely much better venues than Bloody cold, and windy Casey Fields?? AND Ok so, if we field a ressies team and they make finals are we going to pull players then?? Nup I think not! Casey is a very short term fix and not a sustainable ioption for long term stability and football governance. As Melbourne FC Reserves we have full and total control over our players, coaching staff, philosophy and all football related matters. I'm not sure we have this under the current arrangement!
  15. I have expendabled quite a few players in my changes vs North thread. Uncle bitters your spine tingling sensation awaits!!
  16. Here it is the "Fence" Blueprint to topple NORF! B GARLAND DUNN TERLICH HB TRENGOVE PEDERSON VINCE C STRETCH OLIVER LAMUMBA HF PETRACCA HOGAN VAN DER THING F GARLETT WATTS WEEDS R/RR ROV GAWN JONES VINEY INTER TYSON ( LUCKY) SALEM MC DONALD ( VERY VERY LUCKY) BRAYSHAW Also, Mc Donald become the swingman in this ins
  17. Sly Stalone's best ever movie was erahawhoweryagoingadrieneyouknowiloveya
  18. Attitudes are contagious, is yours worth catching? YES !!

  20. Nope lack of awareness irreperable!! trade at years end! IMV
  21. We are far too conservative! The coach is conservative and so too are the naysayers, lets take some chances and roll the dice! We have too many players that are easily pleased and do not play to requirements! Time to break the shackles! I will present a "Fence Special" team to take on Norf later! And it'l be a doozy!
