PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon
I totally agree with the selection given the resources available to us. However, it makes a mockery of the recruitment of Fullarton. Showed very little in his time at Brisbane and his highlights package was underwhelming. His form at VFL has been uninspiring. Yes, we need to add to the midfield but a back up ruckman is number one priority in the off season. Fullarton ain't it!!

Billings and Laurie are both contracted. I'll take it your not serious about Oliver.

Totally agree with this. Whilst I would love Allen we need to really strengthen our mids. Two would be ideal . Hard to get everything you want but the need for a genuine back up ruck that can at least have some forward craft is glaring. We are going to be smashed in that department for the next 3 weeks. Fulfill mids and rucks, avoid the multitude of dramas and injuries and 0we will be amongst it next year. The emerging young talent is both encouraging and somewhat unexpected. Finally, to make Casey a competitive force again would be a bonus.

Would be perfect as shown on Sunday. Given he is still in contract and an RFA at the end of 2025 wondering what it would take to get him? F1 & FFI? Playing as a 26 year old next season it would have to be a 5 year contract on money commensurate to Angus', perhaps even North of that. Does he ruck at all?

VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast
Quite remarkable to think that it is more than feasible to say that our best 5 players on the ground were 23 and under. Rivers, Windsor, Kossie, JVR and McVee. Honourable mentions to Chin, Kolt and AMW. Add to that most of our established 'stars' were good to average it's a very encouraging performance. Sure, it's only the Eagles, but it's a 10 goal mauling. Not sure if this has occurred often in the AFL.

My 3 word player analysis V West Coast
Fair point but if Sparrow's career ends up being 50% that Melksham's I'll be rapt. I have my doubts.

CASEY: Rd 15 vs Brisbane Lions
Surely Jefferson plays soon.

CASEY: Rd 15 vs Brisbane Lions
Yes, and with a fraction of the supply JVR received. Would be over 40 in that team.

Love what Windsor has done this year but gee, Caddy looks like a real talent.

PREGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast
Eagles will come out breathing fire. That was the most insipid of performances yesterday with a decent team. Reid & Kelly will be better for the run. Understandably it was a difficult day for Yeo. No doubt they will come at us. No big win here . Just over a month ago they touched us up. Our team is young so form will fluctuate. Need to be at our best.

Ask any number of StKilda about their thoughts on Max King. I will refrain from his common nickname. Curnow he will never be. I suspect the club and Max himself might be a little fed up with each other so who knows what might happen.Yeo, 2nd rounder might well be unders but what you're suggesting is way overs.

McGovern injured. If he misses next week Jefferson must play!

So long gets a $3750 fine for 'hitting ' Maynard'. [censored]. I just about give up.

Fair enough but who else? Do we just hope JVR and Jefferson come on? I'm open to suggestions.

Max King? In terrible form for the Saints. Could find himself at Sandringham next week. Obviously lacks physicality but he is better than this. Leading goalkicker at least twice at StKilda averaging two goals a game over his career. Not sure Lyon's system suits him. I reckon a mutual parting of the ways could be in the offing. Not sure what sort of coin he's on but if they pay some and it's a second rounder might be worth the punt. At 23 fair chance some development ahead.

NON-MFC: Round 16
Must admit don't watch much of the Bombers but is Harrison Jones worth a thought as a tall forward? Pretty sure he's out of contract. Injury prone it seems but the right age demographic.

100% staging by Maynard. Much worse than May. Eddie slammed our bloke. Awaiting 'crickets'.

CASEY: Rd 14 vs Northern Bullants
Agree with most of that but still think McAdam might have something to offer if he stays fit.

CASEY: Rd 14 vs Northern Bullants
If Petty is out that mark and goal alone should ensure Jefferson's selection this week. Genuine forward. Has done well in wet conditions. Very accurate kick at goal. Named as emergency last night so must be close.
