Not much logic in this statement. Howes is playing good consistent footy & should be in the seniors. Adams has done enough to warrant a debut. Kentfield has shown a few glimpses that he may eventually make it but is miles away from playing seniors. Sestan is well ahead of both of them.

As I've said many times Goodwin's Trademark is rushing back his "pet" players from injury without having to find form at Casey. It's worked a treat this year for Windsor, Jefferson, Tholstrup, Spargo & now Lever.

The Roy George Thread
I wonder is that because his Casey form is not up to scratch or he prefers playing at Fitzroy ? Casey have a swag of tall forwards & as a crumber Roy would have had a picnic in the last 2 games.

What's happened to the lad ?? Played a couple of times for Casey then disappeared. His crumbing would be handy.

Maynard unscathed
My mistake - I assumed the photo in question was the one of Maynard posted previously on this thread & clearly it is not. In my view the best revenge is [censored] them on KB not endlessly encourage more thuggery by our players to "even up".

You should give it a rest. It's sounding more & more like a lynch mob. This latest bout of "revenge outrage" started when a poster suggested the Maynard picture might be one taken after the Brayshaw incident. It clearly is not because BM has a black armband in the photo & didn't wear an armband during that infamous final.

Am I the only one who finds this endless comments about injuring or crippling players for revenge quiet appalling.

Ironic that his Dad played for Melbourne. Best revenge would be to [censored] them on KB & beat them by a point in the finals.

PREGAME: Rd 12 vs St. Kilda
Agree Sestan has been a standout with his disposal & has been good for several games. Could replace Salem in defence & move Salem to the mids.

Danger game. We have a poor record in AS. Lyon is a good tactical coach & while the Saints are ordinary they manage to pull off upset wins every year.

Be careful over there. I got mugged in Pattaya in 1986. I was drinking with locals then I woke up several hours later minus a few hundred $$.

CASEY: Rd 09 vs Northern Bullants
Goodwin Specialty is a good name for it - should be trademarked. Coming back after a long injury Haven't trained for 6 months Didn't get a kick after half a game at Casey Lacking touch & match fitness Straight back into the firsts you go It's worked well this year for Spargo, Jefferson, McVee, Tholstrup & Windsor.

I thought Henderson & Brown were disappointing. Their decision making and execution by hand & foot need to be a lot better.

Lovely sentiments BM. I wish there were more like him in today's media. Too young ??? I reckon if you make threescore & ten you've done ok.

Winds of Change at Port?
You can guarantee that something catastrophic will happen to Port just before we play them & they will play their best game for the year against us.

CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport
Only knock on Kynan is his disposal. Some of his kicks were woeful today - he turns it over a lot, but he wasn't alone.

CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport
Casey has very similar structural problems to the firsts side. Despite having 15 listed AFL players they have been humbled at home by a stand alone side. If you don't see the systemic coaching & structural problems I can't help you.

CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport
Agree - Max has said that Choco is coaching him on goal kicking yet Max is worse now than he was 5-7 years ago. 25m out directly in front & cannot be relied on - its truly embarrassing.

CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport
15 AFL listed players & we dish that up !!! The coaching panel & the Football Dpt need a total overhaul.

CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport
Sorry but past performance suggests McAdam will offer very little if & when he returns.
-
PREGAME: Rd 10 vs Brisbane
Your comments are totally fanciful. Turner has played about 3 games in defence & at best is competent. Up forward he has sometimes been good & sometimes poor to average. You need to be realistic not in la la land.

Time to go Goody?
Works both ways. When the fans suspect that the Board & Footy Dpt are treating them like mushrooms & things are clearly going south they vote with their feet (and wallets). And I don't blame them.
