Greg Stafford - Forward Coach?
Not sure what they do in meetings & training session but the plan seems to be to kick it half a metre over the head of the forward. Thursday the only decent fwd delivery all night was Petracca to Fritter for the last goal.

CASEY: Rd 14 vs Geelong
Fair enough. Everybody (especially footballers) seems to unnecessarily add "to be honest" to every sentence. Goodie ads at least 2 "there's no doubt about that" to every press conference.

CASEY: Rd 14 vs Geelong
Hate to be a pedant but why add "to be honest" ?

PREGAME: Rd 15 vs Geelong
Its not about exact like for like match ups its about the defence working as a unit. Sometimes for short periods McVee has to mark a bigger opponent, Hibbo has to tag resting rucks or May on a small quick player. You just dont drop players in good form & in any case Petty, apart from the odd flash, has been in average form this year.

CASEY: Rd 12 vs Collingwood VFL
I thought Deakyn was going to be a gun a couple of years ago but he has gone backwards. He's inconsistent & no better than Casey's VFL players.

You managed to infer violence in football is due to Anglocentric Colonialism. Apparently other non Anglo cultures didn't have violence in their societies.

Thugs and Saints
Embarrassed !! Are you kidding ? I was there & it was against Collingwood & I'm only sorry he didn’t clean up more of the snipers.

CASEY: Rd 11 vs Southport
All good forwards have to back themselves. Fritta did the right thing.

MFC shabby treatment of Casey
I'm complaining to the Club about this. On most Club sites there is an easy link to their VFL team with plenty of information. On the MFC site there is no obvious link. If you do a search on the MFC site & type in Casey then you do get a link & useful information about this week's team & this week's game. The other Victorian Clubs can do it so lift your game MFC.

Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
Some posters here remind me that I know people who are still convinced that Lindy Chamberlain is guilty.

Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
Tell me about it. As a migrant I copped it in the neighbourhood as well as at school. The ones who copped it worse were English migrants aka poms. Back then when we copped abuse we gave it back in return.

Hawks racism allegations (merged thread)
Sadly whenever the word "racism" is involved then fairness & common sense go out the window & the lynch mob turns up and there are many here on Demonland always ready with pitchforks & torches.

CASEY: Rd 10 vs Werribee
Oops I didn't see that game so I stand corrected but gee he is skinny.
-
CASEY: Rd 10 vs Werribee
As I've said I watched Jefferson in 4 games & you would expect a high draft pick like him to show something at VFL level, not to star or dominate but the odd sign of future potential but all I've seen is Michael Newton or Lucas Cook so far.
-
CASEY: Rd 10 vs Werribee
I've seen 4 of Jefferson's games & for a high draft pick he's shown very little. Reminds me of Lucas Cook or a young Michael Newton both in build and ability.

CASEY: Rd 09 vs North Melbourne
With Hunter out maybe they could try Turner on a wing. He has decent pace & uses the ball well.

CASEY: Rd 09 vs North Melbourne
Yes its all pretty p!$$ poor from MFC. Casey are pretty much ignored. There should be dedicated regular update on what's happening at Casey. Its embarrassing that people get more information about Casey from Demonland than from MFC.
