Exactly.....and who would people suggest we bring in as a mid from Casey to replace an 80% fit Oliver? It's the same reason an 80% fit Petty was being played......they are better in that state than any alternative we might have.

A couple from Bomberblitz: "Dumb players,Dumb game plan, Dumb selections, Dumb coaching, I’m dumb too for going to the game tonight, Tonight was pure 100% Essington" "This is called ‘regression to the mean" "I honestly believe this season is as good as we’ll ever be for a while yet" "Don’t wanna hear anything from this club about fighting it out kicking last 4. Your first 100 mins utterly deplorable" and the best one: "the mummified corpse of mark jamar would’ve offered more than draper"

And is available at the moment. Just returned to the Phillip island Bulldogs team, after a 12 month ACL layoff. Kicked a couple on return, so probably a better option than some of the names trotting around at Casey.

bit late with that news.... https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1595104/petracca-undergoes-appendix-surgery

31 July for AFL öfficial" club totals. Always extras after then up to end of season.

And if any further proof was needed.....Geelong were absolutely gifted 4 goals from the umpires in the 2nd and 3rd quarters in the game against Essendon. Worst was the call of deliberate crossing the goal line by an Essendon player when there were two, yes two Geelong players inside the goal square at the same time.

...and as well who are the young up and coming who are going to replace Gawn, May, Viney in the coming 2 years? There are none, and we don't have the draft picks to get them this year.

I don't think the appreciators ( is that a word?) of banana delicacies in this thread, had noticed a certain lady had thrown a BANANA milkshake at Nigel Farage last week. Only Fans model reveals she spent 8 HOURS in a police cell after throwing McDonald's banana milkshake over Nigel Farage | The Sun Is this sacrilege @Redleg? Or is it because McDonalds can't do a banana milkshake properly? It also appears from her social media photos she may be a Demon supporter?

The real concern for us is once what is written in Blueys note: "Feasibility study will be finished in July. A business case to be finished by January. This is then to be submitted to government for grant in 2025 budget. The grant will only be for the mfc facilities. Not funding other parts of the pubic reserve" So no construction will commence until 2026! Our current Board had end of 2023 as the start date in the previous business plan. Why do we need a business case to be completed 6 months AFTER the feasibility study?. It should be done now and be ready now.

Coburg kicked 6 goals in the 2nd quarter when Fullerton was “ rucking”. At least They only got one when Verrall was doing the job.!!!

For those who want AMW to play seniors....tell me who he replaces? Lots of stats with meaningless kick outs or kicks sideways at Casey. Just doesn't generate drive from the backline which is needed at senior level. Is he going to replace Bowey, McVee, Howes, Salem, Rivers...No. Is he ahead of Tholstrup, Laurie, Woewodin, Billings, Hunter...No

So keep the question and concerns about what is going on…….simply….why do they need to be miked? …… When feedback, like with coaches can be done at end of quarters?

So why do it? This only re-inforces suspicions that supporters hold, like "evening up the frees" . Or as has been suggested, it is using the contact to provide positive feedback....not needed if the decision is correct in the first place. Just makes light of the "howlers", and continues further bad calls if the umpire is told he was right. Any feedback can be relayed at breaks in the game.

Good thing. It will means players will dispose of the ball, instead of “taking the tackle”

The football club from Bena in the West Gippsland league was the "Bena Beans". Now merged with Korumburra to form Korumburra-Bena Giants.....much prefer the Beans!
