monoccular

"in the short term is there a suitable big man out there who could reasonably hold down a fwd position so we could at least offer game time." And leave out Hogan, or McDonald??? Or are we again going to go with too many talls with a third (Weideman, Bull, Pedo?)

But of course (other than intraclub practice games) he wouldn’t have to contend with Gus ever again ? Frankly no disgrace to lower ones colours to Gus in his current form.

Yes, disappointing. But there are bigger prizes than an artificial promo for the AFL's precious franchise clubs. I am sure Charlie would prefer a premiership medallion than the rising star

So, Win, you are privy to the exact details of the injury and the scan results?

But he couldn't play yesterday.

No. Sadly, totally believable

And they overlooked so many blatant throws, and also many incorrect disposals. And don't start me on that prima donna Chamberpot - he just cant resist making it all about him!

MAX OLLIE BRAYSHAW SALEM TOMMY MCD FRITSCH

No idea how that crossed threads. Maybe some confused umpire has hacked this site looking for his betting site?

Spartacus, the (legendary) rebellious Roman gladiator

Goodwin said something about the scan showing some activity again in the area he had trouble with last time. Not good at all and such a pity that he will (in all probability) not get a chance to renew hostilities with Duckwood.

Came into the game in the last as all others tired. Laid 9 tackles which I am sure is one if the KPIs the coaching staff love. Depending on injuries and Casey form I suspect he will get another go especially on the tighter Kardinia Park.

JFK topped the tackles

Of course hanging beside his premiership medallion and Brownlow

Well, certainly a far better story than anything about Ross's Freo on field 'achievements' since their GF flop only a few years back!

Yeah, but that was offered by Vlad and an artificial club in their set up period.

Who where what why?

Of course one can never know, but, how good would Cyril have been had he played at MFC under Bailey and Neeld, vs how good would Wiz or Aaron Daley have been playing in that Hawthorn team under Clarkson?? Would Bruce be swooning over him then?

Broooose will be in mourning.

Question for Casey watchers How far off is Dion J as an AFL level small defender?

Actually after yesterday maybe we should move more games to venues where I will not be tempted to waste my time and emotional energy by trying to attend. :-((((

Exactly, Dom. You beat me to the punch. Still, there are those who just love to see the negatives and just make their judgements on a single poor team performance. It is not as if the mids applied a lot of pressure to those delivering into their forward line.

Yes, the poor guy had a shocker by all accounts - I saw only brief glimpses of the farce But at this time he needs support and encouragement from us all (though not more senior game time in the immediate future). Relentless bagging could shatter him for a long time. Positive feedback is always more constructive than total negativity.

“We are .........blah blah .......journey as a footy club ........ structures ...... know our training standards ........”

Seriously why would anyone want to join a club that crumbles whenever pressure is applied?
