Oliver and Viney well done the rest can get stuffed

Cant blame backline, no forward pressure no mid field pressure our year is done. 10 to 16th we will finish

Petracca check your pants, little bit of poo will be in your undies

1999 all over again

No small forwards the ball gets out our forward 50m way to easy, backline have no chance when your forwards cant apply pressure.

This could be 100 points, top four bottom 4

Frost, Oliver and Viney thats it. Tom McDonald shadow

Mitch Duncan is fast we are lazy

Jones where are you, we are cooked

I reckon it could be a bit like 1999, 98 we had an amazing lead into finals some great finals wins to lose the prelim. 99 wasnt a good year few older players were done. Then 2000

Any club watching that has the blue print to beat Melbourne, change direct, speed and spread. Our small forwards dont apply any consistant pressure and you back yourself to sling shot of half back Some real concerns

Salem, wagner, oliver the rest has been smashed

Our forward pressure is disgusting

Done, cooked, and some worrying signs, new rules you need speed,

Slow

Our small forwards are a real issue

We are playing like a side that doesn't want to be out there, soft dropping marks, its like we just want to get through to round 1

He fits at Casey learning his craft and hopefully he is good enough to play 100+ games for the club. Our midfield depth isn't that great outside the regular AFL players, we need the next group of midfielders developing at Casey and hopefully pushing for selection mid to late in the year. Whose spot they take is irrelevant at this stage

It's an epidemic, young men committing suicide or attempting to commit suicide is a massive issue facing society not just the AFL. Most of use grew up with the toughen up attitude and we never communicated our emotions to anyone. It is very hard for my generation and ones older than me to understand what the pressures are on young people that would lead to them even thinking about taking their lives. It is bloody scary, we can't have the mind set that generations before dealt with the pressures of life so why can't these young men. Men are garbage at talking about emotions, add in modern technology it causing more isolation. If boys had an issues when I was growing up we had a punch on and moved on, these days it is worse, social media allows people to attack others and play emotional games for long periods of time. Not sure what anyone can do about it and something I am working very hard at with my boy is listening, it doesn't come naturally to me and it is hard sometimes really understand what he is really saying, but I'm there and I hope as he gets older he will always know that I'm there to listen.

We had pace setters a few years ago, from memory a couple were boundary umpires, the others middle distance track athletes. They are great to use as they understand what pace they need to run at to hit the time targets.

I reckon 2

We still have 2 spots on our list left, I reckon we will see a rookie elevation and this kid.

Our VFL backline will be strong next season

Got to love Politics. Both major parties need to bow down to the Greens as they really hold the balance of power and to win the election you need Green preference votes. Only if Dan Andrews didn't keep the Greens happy with the East West link we would have a completed freeway linking all our freeways. We are 4 years behind with a new project that really is a band aid. Inner city need to get off the Green band wagon so one party can make proper decisions rather than worry about keeping a minority happy

Avoid Jacks, our history draft jacks isnt that great, Watts, Grimes, Trengove.
