  1. Have any Casey watchers seen if Weideman has done any time in defence when another tall is needed temporarily to help settle down maybe after a run on by the opposition ( I realize that this hasn’t happened a lot at Casey this year)? ......., or Spartacus who has shown he can offer more consistent defensive pressure that has Jeffy so far.
  2. Would that MFC see saw always end up with the kid at the bottom looking up and hoping, only to be let down again? ?
  3. FACT - we have yet to prove that we can match it with the top sides. We have in fact wilted under pressure quite predictably all too often. BUT - that has nothing to do with Watson's opinion, of which I have zero respect. After it is he who still says the disgraced ex-Downlow Medalist close to him didn't do drugs and wasn't a weak leader when "the issue" arose, and that it was not up to the team captain to question orders from His Lordship.
  4. I sincerely hope that he hasn’t just thought of that! We have dominated I 50 in at least the past two rounds especially early and have failed in both. If “Goodwin will reset” why hasn’t there been any change? I suspect it will take more list changes NB quick and skilled outsiders and yet another pre season.
  5. An old fashioned goal umpire? Nail hit on head, though wouldn’t be surprised were Petty to get a run. And Spartacus laid 9 tackles which is something the match committee and the coach like. Maybe for ANB Can only play who they play. Has his disposal and goal kicking improved? If not, no.
  6. Carlscum doctors would rush out a bloody autopsy report .... then he would be BOG the next week.
  7. In case you didn’t realize Hunt is gone for a month or two. *Maybe Frost as a fast tall option unless and until one or both of these (Hunt / Petty) demand selection. I do realize he has some headless crook moments but so do others without his leap and athleticism. Sure, stop bombing it is just so obvious but also obviously not so easy to execute otherwise we would have done it already. Stating the bleeding obvious, BIG wins in the next three are absolutely essential.
  8. Those useless maggots don’t have the guts to be even evenhanded in Adelaide and in Oerth.
  9. Any good or even a prospect? If such an “easy fix”’then why haven’t we fixed it over weeks or even at quarter and half time last Friday? Can’t be that easy after all. Johnstone has a way to go but no doubt has mutual respect with Nev who appears to have taken him on as a project. Reading of Nev and Dion doing extra defensive drills after training enormously increases my respect for and confidence in both of them. I admit to having Dion down amongst the first ‘delist’ even a month or so back but not now. Humble pie in this case would taste delicious.
  10. Demonised..... 1 will never ever happen, as it would reflect very poorly on what HQ love to refer to as the integrity of the game, and they could never admit that there was any problem with that even though it is glaringly obvious
  11. One thing with Pedo, there will always be 100% effort Hey guys.....not sure maybe I was vague. By Sam I meant Weideman. Sure Sam Frost may come into calculation but SW is surely a certainty. A good young forward learning his craft very nicely.
  12. Might depend a bit on whether the delusion of being in the premiership window still prevails. If not maybe Petty will get exposure.
  13. The cesspool from which the maggots emerge has been badly diluted by (a) too many teams and (b) too many umpires per game Now we must have about 50 of them; with 14 or even 16 teams with two of them per game that would mean 32. So there is now a dregs pit of at least 18. No wonder we get this ??? every week. It has really turned me off the game. Used to watch every Friday and Saturday night game as well as nearly every Demons game. Now I can only bring myself to watch bits and pieces. Yet the geniuses at AFL HQ lead by Gill the dill can’t seem to see this. However I am not sure that the egg can be unbroken. Top grade soccer is looking quite attractive.
  14. Thanks KC and all who have posted. So ... Sam looks a certainty Stretch sounds like he will be pressing ANB or even Trac Looking forward to your summation even more than usual
  15. Hello. How is the game going? Has Weidemann bagged any more?
  16. Check their bloody Sportsbet accounts Gil!
  17. Sounds like Weed has demanded selection for Tim Smith Have any others? Stretch for ANB or Hannan? How has Petty been?
  18. May possibly squeeze in and make the numbers, unless our forwards can put on scoreboard pressure when they get the opportunities
  19. Time surely to “rest” those who won’t be there when and if we are actually challengers eg the likes of Tyson, Vince, and get ourselves a decent forward coach. I realise that delivery to I 50 is haphazard but double the opportunities and losing is totally unacceptable. Give Balic a run, or bring back Spartacus - we had no crumbers. Need another tall defender - Petty needs to be tested.
  20. Quiz Are the umpires (a) incompetent (b) intimidated / scared (c) corrupt (d) biased Can answer one or more of these I would go for, in order, all of b, a, d, c.
  21. Why use the word "or". Surely it can be both. Didn't see what it was as I have turned off. Cant win a game with 64-38 inside 50s !!!
  22. Almost DOUBLE the inside 50s and we cant get a goal. Wake up guys.
  23. I have turned it off Cannot bear to witness such total and unrepentant corruption. Makes men feel dirty just watching it
