  1. You would hope so dc however after 57 years of disasters the odds are against it.
  2. Essendon have two G size training grounds already and Hawthorn is well into providing similar.
  3. The likes of Hawthorn and Essendon must be laughing at this proposal.
  4. What about one set of goal posts that must be the silliest idea since sacking Norm Smith
  5. Sounds like another not so great MFC plan to me bb.

    And we know how that turned out! "We’re pretty positive with where we sit. We’re still in the eight and we’re seventh on the ladder." Hmm sounds Joe B from QLD feeding the chooks.
  7. In the HUN today the MFC have said the training ground will have no fence and only goal posts at one end . Does this sound poor or is it just me? Ever other club seems hell bent on having training grounds to match the size of the G but not us the facility will only have posts at one end! Oh please. Stay where we are at least we can replicate a real game.

    I am not sold on the coach and a couple in the FD Ernest. It seems to me like if you do not fit the Coach's cookie cutter than you are at Casey. It seems to me that the successful coaches take their player skills and build a game around the talent available. We seem to be doing the opposite. Why play potentially the best Full forward up the ground. Why play what may be the best HFF in the mid field where he is clearly not performing. Just not sold that it is all the players fault for our dismal results against any half decent team.

    You won't get an argument from me SF.

    Probably all of the above Ernest. Why bring in an outsider as CEO? Perhaps a reviewer with who owes nothing to any of the incumbants in the FD?
  12. Why is it that every player has to be a hard at it defender? IMO part of the problem at the Dees is we are trying to change the way every player plays. Why is our best Full forward being played way up field? Back to basics might help. Play the full forward at full forward and play the half forward there as well.

    Picking Weideman after every Coburg game!

    I hear the board is not happy with the FD Mr.Leg any truth in that?
  16. Well the 2018 season is well into the laster quarter and not a lot has changed for most of the decade. We are almost spent and the finals look a fading chance situation normal. We are still playing the Weid after a good game against cellar dwellers at vfl level and he is till producing blinders. Oh one thing has improved I was drinking a better single malt last night a very nice Bowmore.
  17. Twice in the last Kent had the chance to seal the game one did not make the distance and the other was almost out on the full. Poor kicking from a senior player.
  18. Played a reasonable game considering the terrible delivery into our forward line.
  19. Without Frost and Vince we would have been beaten badly. Great effort from both.
  20. Copped three bad ones in the last quarter. Terrible umpiring.
  21. Every week I watch Casey we get slaughter in the ruck the opposition get first use of the ball. King must be the worse ruckman going around in the vfl. Today is no exception. God helps if we ever to use him in the seniors.
  22. Yes I understood the comment that is what made my night.
