Sometimes I think to myself what is it that Dane Swan or Trent Cotchin has that Nathan Jones or Jack Grimes lacks? After yesterday I started to think what is it that Port Adelaide or Richmond or any ofher bloody team have that we don't? It can't be the coach we have been through enough of them in the last decade. It can't be the players we have had old new high draft picks recycled players the lot. Why is it that our club has gone down and not been able to rise? While all other clubs show improvement or they play kids who look exciting or pick up recycled players and can get something out of them? What is wrong with us? We keep sacking coaches untill everyone is afraid to take on the job? We keep getting high draft picks and never develop them, or they move to other clubs not because of poor culture but complete lack of anything that even resembles a culture? We keep picking up recycled players untill we have a team that would get rolled by most VFL teams. 2 weeks ago in the Casey practice match our "midfield" of Trenners McKenzie Blease and Viney got slaughtered by VFL players. Players every other AFL team in the country thought wouldn't good enough to play at the highest level but on a clinic for our boys.

We are due in the end of June also. My partner and I are both passionate Melbourne supporters. Dad is Collingwood and I found myself thinking today why would I want my son to go through all this. I wish I barracked for someone else and I hope my children follow someone else

Relocated - Somwe. An be just as pathetic as the Hobart Demons? Absorbed - There isn't much worth absorbing. Cease to exist - ...

If we were playing a better side 186 would have been passed. Don't think Essendon can do it too is but West Coast might. Time to start taking this "hypothetical" a little more serioisly

Maybe the sour taste of the processed chicken sub will get the taste of 2012 out of your mouth, its a disgrace that the food and drink cost so much, entry cost so much and then if you want to watch on TV you have to pay for that priviladge aswell, makes me angry

Excellent, love your work Supermercado

Channel 7 is a good option if you want to watch My Kitchen Rules.. Its not on free to air TV in north east victoria anyway

Arested AGAIN!?! Surley this cant be another fresh news

I would imagine Sellar is in. Gillies for McDonald and Pedersen for Dawes. Also no Trengove

Then why did we take Jimmy Toumpas?

Hey K C who is number 13 he moved well

Viney right in the middle of the quater time scuffle flying the flag. Great to see. Clark and Trenners perhaps lacking some match fitness wouldn't be surprised of they missed round 1. Blease is ready to go as is Viney.

Yes Neeld Craig Todd Viney Grimes Spencer and Watts all watching on

I'm not so sure either. I was 6 months ago it I'm happy for him to take his time

Thank you so much. We are driving. Missus just has to get her eyebrows waxed (snore) and then we are on our way!?! I'll be the one carrying a footy looking like a kid on Christmas. So good to have footy back So good to go and see the boys so close Being on Port Adelaide nothing can stop us

Ha ha that made my day... please leave Viney out of your posts

Thanks mate yeah got the ok to go. Really excited to go and see a few of the boys in a bit more of a relaxed environment. Is this the kind of place to get a few signatures?

Sorry to be a pain again but does anyone know the address of the ground or something near it for my GPS

I can count to potato

^ Yeah thanks very much that's perfect. Game starts at 2 and the seconds are playing as well they must be about 11 o'clock sounds like a good day if I can convince the missus to let me go. She is worried I'll get too excited and get drunk... She knows me well

I'm in Melbourne this weekend and have a few questions ... I'm staying in the city. Is there public transport out to Casey? How far is it to drive from the city (average times)? And I'm from the country so don't laugh but are we allowed out on the ground at the breaks to kick the footy? Cheers

I can't wait too see Clark and Dawes together. I think We are like a doughnut. We seem to have a decent back line and fowadline but are missing in the middle. Unfortunately that's where games are won and lost None the less bring on 2013. It's like Hiesenberg's cat. 2013 might be terrible, it might be good but we won't know till we look

The ground did look amazing and if the potat cakes were as good as you say sounds like you had a good day at the footy. Thanks for the write up

He was always in mine but 165?!? That's huge if true Also ATM I have Kent but maybe should have Jones?

Pretty sure Davey and Macdonald were at Casey today so won't be surprised at all to see those go and won't lose sleep either. Sylvia must be hanging by a thread. And as for J... J... Nah I'll leave that alone too. But getting rid of "talented" players and replacing them with VFL players that other clubs overlooked and fringe players at other clubs is dangerous. We are so far behind its not funny. I understand we were missing a spine but it's the midfield that's the problem. And I don't see Trenners Viney and Blease changing anything. Was Howe even out there?
