Petracca to miss Essendon Game
Nah. This is entirely Jack's doing. Had JW still been here he would have stopped the dog from biting CP#5. How can any sane person doubt this?

Alex Neal-Bullen - AFL top 10 in distance covered in game
ANB was exciting in his debut year, OK in his second, but abysmally out of touch this season. What has gone wrong? Poor coaching? Poor mentoring? Asked to play a role that he cannot adapt to? ?????? Disappointing. He MUST sort himself out over the next month or so (MFC or Casey) or he will risk delisting / trade (depending upon contract status).

Petracca to miss Essendon Game
Dog bites can turn out to be a lot more serious than lay folk think. Often need debridement (cleaning out surgically) especially if they involve a joint. No....... obviously Jack Watts Barrie. Maybe he did. Can be very deceptive. Hope he has had a tetanus shot updates. PS FMD!!! PPS: Seriously, does anyone NOT believe in the Norm Smith curse? (Thanks to the late Dr Don Duffy and those on the committee he either lead or failed to lead ).

Question for the regular Casey watchers: How are Baker, Balic, Spargo, Keilty and Petty progressing in their respective roles? Are any of them near ready and if so what roles? Thanks- Round 5 Non-MFC Games
He really is (and always has been) a thoroughly unlikeable pratt Started round 23 last year actually - gained self belief that day ?- Taking out the fend-off
Well not quite zero impact but reasonably held anyway. Worried that there may be a few bikies at their door one dark night ?? Or some ? in their ? ? (But then the latter could probably do little to impair their severely limited vision) Grabbing his wrist and pulling or swinging could well dislocate his shoulder, which would no doubt limit his influence on the game; and would almost certainly result in incorrect disposal which could even be penalized occasionally. I seem to remember our MIA co-captain doing similar things to a Saint a couple of years ago .... pity he isn’t playing at present. Could have been handy especially in the three games we lost.- Premium Members Getting Dudded By The Club
Not only premium members, but ordinary members (and non member fans) are being totally dudded by yet another year of pumped up optimism but zero delivery by this heartless club.- Changes Vs Essendon
Worse that than as well as no avenue to goal, the defence leaks like a sieve.- Post Match Discussion - Round 5

I do really think that is a huge part of the problem. Tail wagging the dog Too many don’t want to put in second, third and fourth efforts ...... even first efforts would be welcome some times And, in lieu of the boot camp, they quite bviously did not devote the time to skillls training - how many miskics and missed handballs and running over the ball tonight? If they can’t be hard at least they could be skilled.- My 3 word player analysis V Richmond
Jetta - something desperately wrong (could hardly raise a trot at one stage, still courageous - anyone know about an injury? Hope it is not accumulated concussions.)- GAME DAY
THAT would be novel- GAME DAY
Skills just awful- GAME DAY
Harmes - how long do we carry hm? The umpiring is a [censored] disgrace too- GAME DAY
3 goals in five quarters is nothing short of pathetic Goidwin????- GAME DAY
- MRP round 5
They, sorry, he (an individual not a panel) sure look after their favorites and Downlow favorites. Deliberate, high, off the play ..... but there is always an excuse when they want to find one.- Dusty tackles etc at training
I am surprised that nobody has tried grabbing the arm with both hands. 1/ It would force him to attempt a kick, and a likely incorrect disposal (should the umpires decide that that rule will be applied on that particular day) 2/ hold on hard enough and it could dislocate his shoulder.- Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 5
- Shepherding the man on the mark
Not suggesting that he is, at least yet, in Hogan’s class, but I do recall that in what I remember as Jesse’s first clash with Rance he took him apart in a rare Friday night appearance and win. It is being ru(i)n by someone whose best (I am told) was an amateur footballer. Certainly Gill seems to retain too many amateur traits.- Richmond VFL v Casey Demons - Round 3
Did Petty play? How has he gone throughout the season so far?- Round 5 Non-MFC Games
Yet we beat Norf. After they got off to a great start. Weird season.- Richmond VFL v Casey Demons - Round 3
eighths??- Training 19/4
Re Max and hot outs: as I recall in his AA year, Jamar won a squillion hit ours but only a small handful resulted in clearances. This is a huge part of the game we need to urgently learn / formulate a plan to use to our advantage. It requires teamwork in the mids and wings. - Changes Vs Essendon
