Jack Henderson Re-Signs for 1 Year
My recollection of Jack is last minute fumble which allowed GWS to score & win the game.

Jack Henderson Re-Signs for 1 Year
Totally underwhelmed. I thought Sestan showed more.

VFL 2025 Season Review
Yes but their capitulation to Frankston who had no listed AFL players was most disappointing.

Judd McVee Contract
Its always been a Demonland special. Identify a young player & build him up to be the next Judd/Dusty Martin before he is even established at Casey. Kentfield is the latest victim. AMW has shown something but is a long way from a regular first 18.

The Next CEO
Think most observers would suggest that most of the spadework for the 2021 Flag was done by Peter Jackson who inherited a basket case & left a Club primed for success.

Judd McVee Contract
Do you dream this stuff up ? Your comments on both Rivers & McVee come from fantasy land.

The Next CEO
Jeez mate Cam Schwab spoke well, so did John Anderson, Steve Harris, Ray Ellis & others & I met several of them. They have all had media training. It doesn't mean anything & is mostly waffle. Judge them on what they deliver not on what they tell you.

The Next CEO
Pretty much all our CEO's of the last 40 years present well & speak well but apart from Jackson most were pretty disappointing. I wish Mr Guerra all the best but he will be judged on results & outcomes.

Aw gee what a care bear you are Demonstone 😍😍

Demonstone's Ridiculous Riddle Revival
For a wordsmith that's a pretty loose use of the term "contemporary"

2025 Smithy's VFL Team of the Year
There were 3 of 4 Frankston players from last week that ran rings around some of Casey's AFL listed players.

What a pointless & meaningless post.

Shane McAdam v Jack Martin
Playing unfit & underdone players became a Goodwin trademark in his last years.
-
Shane McAdam v Jack Martin
Actually plenty have been critical of list management for a few years. List managers are supposed to improve us not send us backwards. Losing Bedford, Hunt, Jordon, Grundy, & Harmes & gaining Dunstan, Schache, Fullerton, Billings & McAdam took us backwards.

Shane McAdam v Jack Martin
This comparison highlights how smart Geelongs list management is & how poor ours has been for several years. Both players are around the same age & ability although Martin has played more. Shane cost a 2nd round pick & commands a hefty salary while Jack cost Cats nothing & is probably on minimum pay with performance bonuses. And dont start me on Tom Stewart, Tyson Stengle or Shaun Mannagh also picked up for a song. We need our list managers to smarten up.

Delistings 2025
Me too. He was in great form for Casey mid year & looked set to debut until he got injured & he is a beautiful kick. Don't think the Frankston game helped as he was very poor that night.

Who Will Be Our Next Coach?
Still heading up the ever diminishing Conga line of Goodie apologists I see. Gonna be a very lonely place.

GAMEDAY: Rd 22 vs Western Bulldogs
The job of the Board is to make decisions in the best interests of the Club & they have done that. And whether Goodwin is a good bloke or not is totally irrelevant. I'm sure Mark Neeld is a good bloke.

Thanks for that advice. In fact maybe it should be prescribed for all Demonland posters.

CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions
Whether the new coach is a dud or not is a completely separate issue. Goodie the 🤡 grossly underachieved given the quality of the list he had for 9 years. Should have been sacked 2 years ago.
-
CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions
The management to get them back on track has been outstanding! Outstanding you say. That's got to be the most absurd statement of the Goodie the 🤡 era. Even the real Wayne Wussell would be gobsmacked.

CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions
1.Recruiting Steven May 2. Delisting Josh Schache 3. Delisting Josh Wagner

CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions
Read the post properly BM. It was obvious to most observers that Lindsay needed a rest 6 or so weeks ago. The management of some of the younger players has been terrible this year - Lindsay, Kolt, McVee & Windsor.
-
CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions
Lindsay was struggling 6 weeks ago. Very poor management not to rest him and/or play him at Casey. Typical of the Goodwin era.
