It was clearly losing money with you as half their subscription base. Many publications have folded in the last few years with information readily available on the net.

Medical degrees must be going cheap now, with so many medical specialists on DL,who know far more about injuries and rehab than our club medical and fitness staff.

Well at least teetering.

Viney out and the banana crop being flooded, what a week.

He had a good game last night. If he can eliminate the clangers he is best 22.

And one of ours is an ex hawk, possibly playing in his last season in the AFL. In the end, so what. Is it a big difference if you have another 5-10 players who are at say 50-80 games?

That horse may have bolted.

Can't lose with the banana.

What some clubs have is that superstar like Danger, Selwood, Dusty and Pendles who can drag a team over the line. I know they are few and hard to find. We have developed a very good list and it would be even better if say Trac or Jack V could elevate their game to that level. I know a champion team will always beat a team of champions or so they say, but it wouldn't hurt if we could develop/ find one or two. Max is probably our best at the moment and most valuable player.

Yes Happy Birthday RDB, who with the sad passing of Tulip, is now the sole most famous living legend of the club.

You may have hit the nail on the head. Losing confidence, leads to panic that a mistake will see you dropped.If he can get past that, if it is in fact the case, then he has the skills to make it. His passing to other players is a weapon. He needs more ball and a bit of confidence.

I was wrong on this bloke, I hated his disposal. He has improved with hard work to be a regular.

Why would we worry if we were 9 wins 2 losses?

To my thinking the best thing is he plays and twinges it early in the first quarter. If not for injuries, especially to Max, we would have beaten them early last year and same with the Tiges as well.

Amazing isn't it. Some just can't believe what they see. Oscar has been on a steady improve all through last season.

You were on him early and so was WJ and of course me. Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) You sometimes get a feeling about a recruit and I just think that Bayley will be a good player for us. He has got to this point by virtue of hard work and he has undoubted talent. I just think he will make it. He will vie with the likes of Harmes, Hannan, Bugg, Melksham, JKH and Kent for a spot and he could end up the best of them. Edited November 29, 2017 by Redleg

Wonder if the new format for practice games hurts the rookies, as most teams go in with pretty strong lineups and close to their best team, depending on injuries and not a lot of rookies get a look in. In previous years more rookies would be given a chance, with more games in the practice game period.

Who cares about Barnaby, we are discussing the more important Bayley.

No.

I saw the Bigger Bang that created the Big Bang.

I saw his dad kicking in his mother's womb and said that he would one day have a son who would play for Casey and then go on to be drafted by the Dees and ultimately play for them. PS. Don't try and beat that, as I also saw his grandfather in the womb and also saw his great grandfather before he went out with Bayley's great grandmother in fact and foresaw the whole chain of events.

If VDB is still on the long term injury list for a second year, it bodes badly for his AFL career.

Gee, I go away for a while and this place goes to rack and ruin. I was in the South Pacific on a cruise ship, trying to outrun a Cyclone, which we did successfully and to my dismay the place goes downhill, discussing smart rats with gold teeth. Anyway the standard will now lift with my return. PS. I want it acknowledged if Fritsch plays early, that I said it first and deserve a winter olympics gold medal for the effort.

Appears correct as Alex was in the group photo.

It is strange that he would be picked in the leadership group.
