Perhaps we should all put in to help. A Go Fund Me page? I'm in.

If he wasn’t fit enough surely you’d play him at Casey to get a full game. The most sensible thing is to start him and sub him off if he runs out of gas. But really, they wouldn’t pick him if he couldn’t play 4 quarters.

I didn't want to start a new thread but do Casey have a practice match this weekend and if so, where and when? Thanks for any help.

I don’t think 12 disposals and two goals against Howes is killing him, Green is a fantastic player and Howes is still learning. IMO he’s becoming the new whipping boy much as AJ is becoming a fan favourite. It will be interesting to see how the FD react. Only forced changes this week I’d suggest unless someone really played well for Casey. May and Turner come in if fit.

I know this will be howled down but TMac is too good to not have in the 22. If May comes back I’d be moving Petty forward. AJ was poor in the ruck against Brown and JvR is much better. Jeffo has no intensity and I’d prefer Turner and Petty to AJ and Jeffo. If Spargs is ready he’s a class above Hendo. Wont happen, but that’s my take.

Good luck Andy and Nasher. See you on the other side!

I have a different view to many on DL and think Howes was quite good against Freo. He had one howler in the first quarter but did well after that. He had 9 possessions in the first quarter when the game was hot and he beat Walters one on one on three occasions that I saw, unlike Salem who got turned around when Walters kicked a goal. His 15 possessions, 5 contested, were from 74% game time. Further Switkowski and Frederick didn't kick a goal so their small forwards were kept well under control. I think too many expect him to shoot the lights out whereas the FD probably want him to play solid defensive footy. To me he's a lock in the best 22 because he's tall enough to play on taller forwards and agile enough to go the the crumbers. Time will tell but I do think he's getting a bad rap from many here.

Thanks, I hadn't read the thread all that far back and thought you were referring to a couple of weeks ago.

That's confusing, I didn't think Fritta played against North................

That sounds like a win win to me!

Don’t blame her Neil, she thought it was Jed Adams.

How many did Jeffo kick KC😎

Apparently is more a loading issue😁

Windsor trained fully and looked good. I’d be surprised if he didn’t play Sunday. Spargs pulling on the boots for tomorrows Casey hit out.

I have a different view but I’ve only seen him in match sims at Gosch’s not in match practice at Casey. From what I’ve seen he looks very comfortable back. He reads the play well, he’s involved and his kicking and decision making is good. Others I been with have been similarly impressed. He’s a strong boy and very strong and competitive one on one. I’m not suggesting he’s pressing for senior selection, but he doesn’t look out of place.
