Cranky Franky

Agree - the same article could have been written when Dean Bailey or Mark Neeld arrived.

Fake news. I demand a recount.

Fully agree. Has no physical edge to his tackling, a bit like Sharp. Laurie could also do with more physicality.

Where there's smoke ....... All that PR by a certain ex coach & ex CEO about what a great culture we had didn't date very well

Exactly QD. Some posters seem to thrive on endless & repetitive whingeing - if it's not the Pies "wot done it to us" it's Caro or Tom Morris or the AFL.

Indeed BBO - Spiros Arion, Bulldog Brower, Larry O'Dea, Mario Milano - a golden era. Sundays was Wrestling, World of Sport, Point of View (Bob Santamaria) then the VFA footy - great days.

I'd prefer Killer Karl Cox & he's probably dead.

The real tragedy is that the rank amateur observers on Demonland seem better at judging talent than our "professionals" at the Club. Plenty here noted that Verrall, Brown, Schache, Woewy, Laurie & Jeffo were not up to scratch well before the "experts" figured it out. Sestan's sacking is very perplexing.

Behaved like a sulking spoiled brat in his last 2 off seasons. Never took a leadership role. Decision making & disposal got worse over time instead of better. Forever marked in the St Kilda disaster by spending his time pointing at teamates instead of picking up Milera Wanganeen.

Our return from father/sons in my years as a supporter have been miserable. Apart from Viney the last success I recall was Tony Dullard.

Take him in a heartbeat if he is injury free.

Maybe if you spent more time actually watching football instead of trying to find clever ways of dissing me your comments might make more sense. Meantime I'll wait for Kentfield to debut before passing judgement.

A classic, typical Demonland post. Maybe presume Scarlett & MFC are mature enough to work out the travel arrangements.

This casual observers has seen them both play several games & remains convinced that both have about 10 to 20% chance of being A grade players. You are doing the typical Demonland thing of hyperventilating about Kentfield who hasnt done anything yet.

(Unsurprisingly) That statement makes no sense at all. You claim Jefferson is not a senior level player & Kentfield is despite Kentfield never having played a senior game & only just finding his feet at Casey. All makes sense.

He was a long way from solid & dependable this year. Apart from 2 or 3 games he was loose, hesitant & sloppy. Should of been dropped.

And yet he played AFL this year - for a much better team. At the time we preferred Oscar McD & Tomlinson to him. Evidence of another List management FAIL.

Dunstan, Billings & now Steele. Good grief

And Oskar Baker & Frost were getting games this year in better teams than ours.

It irks me to agree with Demonstone but Harmes was solid that day & nowhere near a blinder or in the best players.

Easy old son. Have some hot milk maybe an anti depressant & chill out.

Apart from a few games Viney doesn't cut it in the middle any more.

Just hold you marks !!!

His days as a starting midfielder are over. Needs to find a new role if he wants to remain relevant - hard tagger maybe.

I've saw about 8 Casey games. A more accurate assessment would be "I'm hopeful that Luker & Jeffo will develop into regular AFL players". Super excited is definitely hubris.
