    I read somewhere today that they haven't played a wet weather game all season. No idea if that's accurate and CBF fact checking. But happy to run with it. 

    Also this is my first post on Demonland - hello!

    I wonder how well their game style will stand up in very wet conditions.  Handballing through the middle, under pressure in slippery conditions is pretty high risk.

    PODCAST: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    What a game.  The crowd noise was much improved for the Dees this week, and Goody even acknowledged it.  By half time I was satisfied with what we were doing - we were showing a finals level of intensity and even with terrible goal kicking, we were well and truly in it. We were dominant from about half way through the first quarter until time on in the last.

    A couple of questions:

    1. Spargo - subbed out, will he now have to go back to Casey?

    2. Brayshaw - big hand in at least 3 of their goals by turnover /poor decisions and delivery.  What is his value to the squad if he cost us nearly half the opposition score?  Could JJ be a better replacement?

    3. Tommo played great - in the RIGHT role. As Second tall, he allows may and lever to get to work.  Where then for Petty?

    4. Not too many pushed their case at Casey.  Who do you think will get a debut this year?

     

    Thanks for the great podcast, and go the mighty Dees!

    Gents I'd also like you to spend some time on Brayshaw.  A few points if you get time to comment on...

    Firstly - His disposal is over-rated, I'd go as far as saying he is a poor handballer.  

    Secondly - His loose marking in the Collingwood fwd line at ball-ups cost us two direct goals, indicates a lack of focus.

    Thirdly - He seems to cruise through with very little scrutiny and never at risk of getting dropped despite having another "just average" season. 

    Am I being too harsh and critical?

    CASEY: Rd 09 BYE

    Luca Goonan injured his shoulder on the weekend playing for Frankston YCW.  He’ll be out of the Casey line-up for several weeks.  Noted that he’s at the bottom end of the Casey list, but thought it worth noting.
