    GAME DAY

    Hawks/Roos looking interesting.

    GAME DAY

    We could have saved ourselves sacking our coach, our CEO, and moving on half the board if only we'd realised earlier. All Dave Misson's fault.

    GAME DAY

    You obviously have no idea of his background. You don't work across the board at the very highest level the way he has without knowing what you're doing.
  4. Don't know that Jack Viney would agree. But the list of players that was cited above who "should have been played" in the VFL to strengthen Casey in the finals, only includes two "kids", Kent (doing OK in the firsts) and Toumpas (another easy 30 possessions last week).
  5. Pedersen, McKenzie, Tapscott and Bail need development in the VFL? Fitzpatrick is injured, but would know the change rooms at Casey like the back of his hand. As for Kent and Toumpas, see above. One AFL game is worth more than any number of VFL finals. Development isn't dropping players back to the VFL once they've shown they can play at AFL level.
  6. Craig for a year or two then, with Burns or Simpson in the wings ready to take over. At least with Craig we hit the ground running.
  7. You missed one: Paul Roo's has alway's been one of my favourite coach's
  8. Good to clear that up. No mention of MN coming onboard as assistant to NB, or news on GW's next move or DT's contract?
  9. Agreed. But so many of the off-field people involved in Jurrah's time at the club are now gone, so suspect he might have to go to the back of the queue, no matter how popular he is amongst the players.
  10. If you can still find any. Currency suspended in 2009. Not looking good for Tapscott then.
  11. Indeed: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-08-18/demons-president-calls-for-culture-overhaul - also similar report on the Hun site.
  12. His role changed because Walsh left, and Eade is taking up the slack in the Director of Football role.
  13. Anyone know if Toumpas is eligible for VFL finals? Also Gawn and Spencer? Seems that they need at least 6 VFL games - is this the case with these three?
  14. Especially at the moment. Hird has now had 3 years at Essendon, not sure that it's a night and day difference to their time under Knights, especially given that Hird has a better list (outsider's view perhaps ...). Wouldn't be surprised to see Knights get another chance at AFL level if he has the appetite, he's certainly doing well at Geelong.
  15. That would be "fait accompli" I believe.
  16. A bit of competition in the Great Coach Hunt. Brisbane more Roos' style perhaps?
  17. Hardly even worth replying to ridiculous hyperbole like this, but both Grimes and Trengove had more possessions than Gary "best player in the AFL" Ablett, and across town, they also had more than Nick Maxwell and Kieren Jack (Swans co-captain).
  18. Taggert doesn't deserve a game: "13 disposals as a forward/midfielder is below what he has been delivering in past weeks."
  19. Walking in Darwin? One day. Yep, that explains everything.
  20. Just seems conflicting information leaking out here and there, with little that's concrete. Not sure why Misson made no mention of him (at all) in this week's injury report. Somewhat worrying that that's the case.
