Redleg

As I said nearly full strength. Only Kolodjashnij is missing as a regular 23 player. Stewart and Neale both playing. Guthrie is no certainty anymore and Bruhn is no certainty. So missing 1-2 certain 23 players. We are missing Lever, Kolt, McVee, McAdam, AMW, Jeffo. All but Jeffo would expect to be in our 23 regularly.

Yep said 3-4 weeks after saying has to be minimum 2, but then increased it because of potential to cause injury.

Ralphy about to slam him I think.

Houston just elbowed Fogarty’s jaw. Christian has just sms’d he won’t be looking at it. Let’s see how this one goes. Jack Riewoldt just said Houston elbowed him in the jaw and now Brad Johnson has said he is in a fair bit of trouble.

Still can’t get the luck. Haven’t had the 2 key Defenders in the same game yet, with both missing 2 of the first 4 games. Of course Stewart is back for Cats, who are probably at full strength at home.

Well done.

But one of those threads isn’t about how bad we are playing.

Witts 32 , Moyle, Reid and Knobel. Gawn and Campbell both 33.

Mansell pushed a guy in the side, to get separation. The guy goes forward and actually starts to run forward. The guy misses the contest, avoiding contact with the two guys in it. But, as he goes past the second of the two players, that player collects him with an arm. At that stage he is actually past the two guys in the contest. How in hell should Mansell predict that? This is a terrible decision, even given the reason for making this type of action reportable.

Your right and same thing for Barass, they won’t get him either. Whoops!

You may not be aware, but Bluey is the DL master of sarcasm.

The joke is, while unlikely, but if we beat Cats at Cotton On park, they will say we are back on track and move to other clubs and issues. As we all know, it is a click bait medium now.

For a start McVee is still injured and is about 2-3 weeks away. Turner will be in after 5 goals for Casey. We should definitely have our best side in so far this season.

Yep pick 68 or thereabouts. Should have drafted the next Bont.

Am sure Dockers, Blues and others were saying it as well. You have to aim for a good result and if you don’t make it, so be it. I wonder when the last club prediction was “we will finish last two.”

While pushing can be dangerous as we have seen and I am not a Mansell fan, this is ridiculous. They were wrestling and he pushed him away and then Lynch hits him with an arm I think, clumsily at the end of the contest. How is Mansell meant to see that happening from his action? It wasn’t even a hard push. Because the Saint got concussed they are looking for a player to penalise. Lynch is actually the one who struck and concussed him. Players are punching each other and getting a fine.

Tbh, I think Fritta needs a Casey game more than Howes and I would keep him in the 23 and play him mid/forward. He could even be the sub this week.

You mean like our last 2?

Been saying the same. Not sure about the next year at Casey comment though.

Correct, he wasn’t.

We don't deserve daiquiries atm, more like mashed banana on mouldy bread.

He is great in other areas that we also need and we can carry one poor user of the ball. The problem is he has about 15 mates with the same level of disposal skill.

That's the puzzling thing, we don't have a [censored] list. Yes our injuries have killed us. The Roos and Suns had 1-2 out each, while we were without our quickest and best ball users and then we lose another XL in the first few minutes. We may improve when these guys return, but if not, we are ending up near the bottom and without our first pick.

Something is wrong. Langdon, Rivers, Fritta, Howes and JVR as examples, are playing horribly. JVR dropped 3 chest marks yesterday. Fritta dropped about 3 and missed 3 shots and his tackling is a joke. Langdon is turning over the ball every possession, as is Rivers and Howes is panicking and giving it away too often. What is causing this? We know Viney has poor disposal, but now Oliver and Tracc are turning it over regularly. Max couldn't give a 3 metre handball yesterday under no pressure, that would have given us a certain goal. I repeat, something is wrong, players don't lose all their skill overnight.

It did.
