The Oscar Allan Thread
Red herring, this bloke ain't worth it. Cant stay fit, baaaad knees, and a bad look meeting with opposition coaches early in the season. Unfortunately he's probably the only decent KPF on the market.

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Really excited to see Jai debut for Casey. Will be the return of the big bodied centre mid we've needed since White and Munro departed.

Harvey Langford Rising Star nomination Rd 3
Wins hard ball and has a sweet left foot kick. Kids a winner.

Time to start a rebuild?
Brad Green's speech stating we will walk out rnd1 with Viney, Petracca and Oliver was a show of amazing support. However, it is clear now that these guys are not getting it done. What we do have is the young talent talent to be a top 8 team. Things might change when we stop expecting our '21 stars to win every game for us. I'm starting Viney and Petracca forward. We need leadership and a genuine threat in the forward half. Let Viney tackle manically and Petracca act a nasty match up for any medium defender. We want to play a forward half game still, so they will have plenty of time on-ball. I am starting any one of Windsor, Lindsay, Kozzy, Langford and Rivers at centre bounce. This has to be the midfield of the future. I am giving the keys to our supremely talented young players.

GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs Gold Coast
Diabolical footy, but that was a more even quarter. Bowey and Langford have been fantastic. Desperate for a spark.

The boys got their kicking boots on today

CASEY: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
Don't believe it till you see it, saw Mentha play HB last week and he's named at HF. Deakyn is our captain i doubt he starts on the bench too

Training 28 March 2025 Captain's Run
Great to see Sestan in the emergencies, we need some precise kicking off HB and career wise it's time we see if we can make it or not.

Training 28 March 2025 Captain's Run
We're desperate for leg speed and aggression, even if Ricky is a bit fresh to the system I think he will help our drive off HB. After seeing Saad EH debut for Essendon, it could be an exciting option to debut a speedster too.

Training 28 March 2025 Captain's Run
Would we be tempted to debut Mentha? Or simply bring back in Howes (underwhelming) or Disco (back to defence?)

Hamish is a great journalist but will ask the right questions to expose what's going on.

CASEY: Rd 01 vs North Melbourne
Id be happy to have one of Viney/Petracca to be shifted for 80% forward time so we can have a Langford or Laurie take the minutes. Riv would be best suited to take on the role but he not in great form either. Laurie plays as a full time mid or not at all. He cannot play any other position.

PREGAME: Rd 03 vs Gold Coast
My gut feel is that he won't. Spotted in crutches after a hospital stay, and the second time dealing with this infection is bad news IMO. Antibiotics are very taxing, in a high performance environment, players need to give 100% to be match fit - giving that 100% makes it much harder to deal with these kind of infections.

I think overall it is easy to state our drafting strategy, and using trade to boost our draft hand has been excellent. I still trust our under 25 squad to be a force in the future. However, besides May/Lever/Langdon, our player trading has been diabolical. The AMB/McAdam trade has been a complete failure. We will need to turn over another 5-10 players, it'll take us at least 3 years and at that point we will effectively be a completely different team with no May, Gawn or Viney.

NON-MFC: Round 02
Brissy started very slow against Sydney and the same against the Weagles. They'll probably fight back to close the gap but gee they look very vulnerable

CASEY: Rd 01 vs North Melbourne
Some really nice transition play at times, still can't score though

CASEY: Rd 01 vs North Melbourne
Yze 0 goals 2 points Langford 0 goals 2 points Fullarton 0 goals 2 points Billings 0 goals 2 points Just real real bad AJ suspended and 3 talls in the 1sts. We have no forward targets today.
