Does Jay Kennedy Harris deserve some senior time now?

Anthony McDonald

Geoff Whitton

Thanks for the idea and the effort Deevoted. Appreciated.

Thanks Roger. Lets hope he can overcome these injuries and he can really move ahead. Hopefully his kicking can be turned around and made into a strength to add to his attributes. :0

From the televised games of Casey I gained an very positive impression of Evans as someone who broke through the packs and knew where the goals were..on a couple of occasions at least he showed real class and good disposal. Perhaps his disposal to team mates might be the weak area to which you were referring?. I can't recall picking up on this. Is that what you were discussing when you said he was a shocking kick? Cheers

RDB twelve months after the world losing JFK..both significant figures for me. The next 3 or so years after Barass left were especially tough years. I remember one day at Princes Park he plonked himself in the back pocket for the last quarter and continually rebuffed our attacks toward goal when we had a chance of winning.

Don Williams, Doc Roet, Tassie Johnson, Geoff Case, John Beckwith, Gary Hardeman, Bernie Massey, Barry Bourke (when he played down back in his later years), Denis Jones. A few from earlier times there. Showing my age!

I won't be shooting you down..yours is a valid observation and a possibility..would be good to see it come to fruition. Maybe it won't..but its possible.

Agree totally Tex. You make good points.

Thanks for your apology Ignition. I respect the fact that you did that. Shows something to do that. Cheers.

Well said Satyricon, Cudi_420, S_T and others..this young player needs games in his legs and experience..and constructive criticism, encouragement and support from his coaches. He did some good things yesterday despite mistakes and weak spots..and if I recall, his first game (or one of his first games) against Collingwood several years ago he did really well early in the match. I feel he has suffered both from injury and lack of game time to mature.

Agree with you Striker.

Thoughtful post with good insights.

Fantastic for the Dees to have you WhateverItTakes. Authenticity and loyalty. Great to see in these tough times

Well said Oucher.

Thoughtful, mature posts with insight Akum and Theo. Very refreshing to read. We need to stick with the club and Neeld and co. right now. Neeld is an very intelligent coach and as he showed in the presser, he sees the critical importance of supporters in our plans and efforts to achieve success. We should feel chuffed that he sees us as an important part of the overall scene, plan and culture. He is showing an insight into the bigger picture of what a successful football club involves. In a way he is challenging us just as he is the players..to show resilience, hang in there despite disappointment, and to support each other and the players. Supporters can have a big effect on the playing group..and Neeld has recognised this..and his challenge for us is to look to the longer term and support through the tough times.

A mature post Maurie. Thanks

Thanks Cowboy..yes would be great to see Mark Jamar play a good game and to get back to his best. Fitzy gets a mention in KC's Casey Scorpions thread..mentions good ruckwork and marking around the ground and a great goal on the run..but kicking needing improving.

Yep thanks for spotting that McQueen..I should have added Martin as in and Jamie B out. Cheers

I like some of your reasoning and selections Master. Here's what I came up with after some umming and ahhing..I could easily go with some of yours instead..its so open. And what I see in either one is lots of room for rotations and movement within the game..nearly every player could play in different positions. If I looked again tomorrow I could easily come up with a few different choices too... Bail Frawley T.McDonald Tynan Davis Garland Grimes Trengove Couch Morton Clark Bate Howe Watts Petterd R. Martin Jones Magner Int Fitzpatrick Moloney Rivers Nicholson (if available..Blease or Davey if not) Emerg Jamar In. Davis Couch Tynan Fitzpatrick Morton Nicholson Moloney Out. Green MacDonald Sellar Bartram Dunn Jamar McKenzie

With all the references here to Muppets, here are a few possible "ins" for next week:- Kermit- slippery little fella..might just be that small goal sneak forward we need. Miss Piggy..put her in the middle..wouldn't take nonsense from anyone Cookie Monster--down back..sure to crunch someone. Oscar the Grouch..we need someone mean and nasty..would have been handy when Grimes got hit. Big Bird..a handy tall Bert and Ernie..seem to make a good pair..could be another Jamar/Moloney style combo.

Thanks jimcor and El Demonio..informative reports and interesting and helpful for us who couldn't be there. Well done.

Well expressed WJ.

Yes I can relate to the heart attack risk with a close one! LOL
