May charged and fined for striking Buddy?
Well you are a dunce then. Contact is made with the shoulder which is legal. Buddy is oiled up so then logically the bump slides higher. Play on nothing to see just like the umpire called. This smacks of petty payback because Fritsch got off & made them look stupid. We must appeal otherwise it stays on his record then next trivial offence he will cop a week.

CHANGES: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Thought Brayshaw & Fritter both had their worst ever games tonight. That's 2 poor games in a row for Brayshaw.

Meet new MFC President Kate Roffey interview
Lets hope she is one of our better presidents. In my time I've seen a few duds, lots of average plodders and a few decent ones.

CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
Jeez don't like Harmes do you ? Actually last week he started off a bit rusty & tentative but finished the game pretty well & was one of Casey's better players.

2020 Player Reviews: #33 Oskar Baker
I did watch closely and your comments have gone from reasonable to silly. He was serviceable & nowhere near our worse ' I'm playing him next week.

Yes there should be a Demonland Hall of Shame to honour those who have made the demonstrably ridiculous statements or predictions. Maybe we could vote 3, 2, 1 entry.

2020 Player Reviews: #33 Oskar Baker
Okay he missed that tackle on Cunnington but seriously "massive" liability - I don't see it.

2020 Player Reviews: #33 Oskar Baker
Well 15 disposals, 5 marks 4 tackles, 2 clearances and 315 metres gained is a fair afternoons work.

2020 Player Reviews: #33 Oskar Baker
I'm putting this up because I thought Baker was allright today. Helped out in defence and attack yet lots of posters are calling for him to be dropped. He was better than a number of senior players. Has been in good form at Casey & should be rewarded with some consecutive games.

CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
Am I the only one that thought Baker was ok today. I'd give him a block of 3 or 4 games.

Serong/Pickett trade
You could just say "sorry, my mistake I got it wrong Pickett is a gun". And why do you pretend that the Kelly trade was for Tyson without mentioning Salem. Both trades are big wins for us.

Are the Dockers the worst ever team for trading?
Whether you trade or recruit directly its still part of recruiting. We received pick 23(Bernie Vince) as compensation so you could argue that technically it was a trade. The point is Freo stuffed up again.
-
Are the Dockers the worst ever team for trading?
Yes Freo have been absolute shockers & probably cost themselves a flag. Their misses included Matty Lloyd, Scott Lucas, Jeff Farmer, Andrew Mcleod, Peter Bell. They also stuffed up with Croad, Sylvia, Bennell & Hogan.

Would you take Jeremy Howe back?
Well it can join the long list of MFC rewritten history along with the departures of Alves & Jolly and the Henry Coles & Shane Zantuck altercations.
-
Would you take Jeremy Howe back?
Pushed - You have got to be kidding. You must be the only Demonlander believing that. Any evidence to back your claim ?

CASEY: Rd 03 vs North Melbourne
Yes the 5 year deal for an average player who had 1 really good year was crazy. Collingwood showed what happens when you overpay players.

AFL Mid Season Draft 2021
Agree - we badly needed some more run last year. Given the lockdown it was a very difficult year for marginal players trying to show their wares. Sadly for Dunkley it was also a bad year to get injured.
-
AFL Mid Season Draft 2021
Completely different scenario. Dunkley was 18 or 19 and was worth a punt - it didn't work out. I've watched Mitch White in maybe 20 games at Casey & he is a good honest VFL standard battler.
-
AFL Mid Season Draft 2021
Consider yourself howled down. A very silly idea.
-
AFL Mid Season Draft 2021
Ridiculous suggestion. He is a good ordinary VFL player but a fair way off AFL standard. If Josh Wagner was B Grade then Mitch is C+.

Smith - Barassi - Blight - Goodwin
Interesting. So at which Club exactly did Williams coach Goodwin ?

Dreaming of the Alice
Pack a warm sleeping bag, one man tent & air mattress & camp at Uluru - its cheap & great atmosphere. Alice is easy to walk around & u will find plenty of art galleries. Not many flies at that time of year.
