I'm not sure how many Casey games some Demonlanders watched, but there was definite improvement in some of the playing list, just not from some our father-sons and other MFC listed players. Surely the Casey coach had some hand in this. However, I am 50/50 about his appointment as development coach only because I know nothing about the process of hiring him. Seems a bit strange if the club has employed him without Steven King being on board, but we have no indication of anything regarding this yet.

The only reason for Mihocek would be if he could fill a similar function to BBB when he came across from North. BBB never took the competition by storm when with us, but he was vital to the structure and system. He was never a strong contested mark but if you didn't respect him he kicked goals and created goals around him. Perhaps having Mihocek and JVR as forwards, with Fritsch, Kozzie, Chandler etc... around them appeals to what new coach King wants to build?

I live 700m from the Eaglehawk footy ground (Canterbury Park), follow the mighty Burra who won the BFL flag this year, and I know lots of people at the club. I can ask if they are interested in the memorabilia if you choose that option.

As much as I loathe the Pies, I actually do feel for N Daicos. Cameras all over him, and he is showing grace and respect. Must be tough to be 2nd three years running.

Taranto has had an outstanding year, playing well in just about every game. Deserves his votes. Maybe Max deserves a few more.

Strange night, this Brownlow. GOTY and MOTY year were both very beige, the Rising Star looked about as happy as the Pope at a condom sale, the (lack of) camera work on Langford was a disgrace, the players look as if they have been forced to undergo PR training to learn how to present for the cameras at their tables, and the whole presentation lacks energy and life.

Really good Captain's goal from Anderson, and it helped the Suns win versus the Pies, but no way is that a Goal of the Year.

Unfortunately I reckon Smith will win it. Great footballer, but his anchor-with-a-double-u status is confirmed with unwashed hair and sunglasses inside at night time. Noah Anderson has no votes yet. Odd.

From that brief video clip, I love his hard running, his goal sense and his desire to naturally take the game on. Looks very raw to me and would probably be a project pick in the draft. But he looks a very very good kick which adds immediately to our list improvement.

I rarely do it, but for sheer indulgent pleasure I might have a read on Bigfooty (do they have a fan forum like our wonderful Demonland? I reckon not because you have to be able to read and write!)

Tears of joy I reckon.

I actually think this is closer to truth then humour. They have huge decisions to make on Howe, Pendlebury, Mihocek, Frontbum, Cox, Elliot, & De Goey. They have no power forwards, only daicos and Long as midfielders, and no observable talent in the VFL. Loving it.

Some great young players at the Lions. 2 x Ashcroft, Morris, Wilmott, Gallop. Wow

This is going to be won on a couple of big moments. Little separating them. Howler of a decision not paid to the Pies (very happy) which might be the one big moment.. And Cameron finds his goal sense!

Both teams doing a lot of poor kicking into F50. That last goal to the Lions is what they need to do more. Those repeated small kicks to free players cut the Pies apart. Pies play last quarter really well but the Lions are aware and up to the challenge.
