Welcome to Demonland: Tom Fullarton
If you want fight I’m not sure Fullarton offers that much. I’ve watched him several times now at Casey and frankly he offers a similar level of intensity as a former demon chf now at the bummers He seems like a really nice bloke and I’m sure he is but right now I’d rather see a few more hard nuts run out in red and blue. We seem to have lost any sort of true grit particularly in the last month.

Deep Midfield Issues
Throwing HBFs into the midfield doesn’t mean they will be successful in that role and then who replaces them at HB ? Howes doesn’t deserve a recall he butchered the ball time and time again this weekend at Coburg and it seems the coaching group don’t think AMW has what it takes Our list is overrated imo - we have quite a few who don’t look that hungry and seem happy to take their paycheck and just show up when it suits

Deep Midfield Issues
Our midfield depth is a major concern If you watched Casey you’d agree we have nobody looking remotely likely to make it as an AFL midfielder coming through. Viney appears injured Trac is a gun but is needed in our F50 because we have a pretty weak forward line with the exception probably being Fritta and Pickett (sometimes) Sparrow looks like a player but produces little Oliver - disposal by hand is usually good - disposal by foot is comical ANB - not an AFL midfielder imo he is a good pressure small forward Pickett - see ANB Max - a one man ruck band - unsustainable in all respects. JVR is not terrible as a backup but he’s supposed to be our big KPF. Our rucking depth is frankly non existent

The Narrm Curse
What are the unsavoury comments ? If we can’t acknowledge that when we play as Narrm we generally lose then we need to harden up a bit I suspect Some people just don’t seem comfortable with facts and truth

The Narrm Curse
Facts are facts BoBo

The Narrm Curse
They seem to have that covered already - unless they are playing Narrm in which they may look like champs for a half

The Narrm Curse
Win loss ratio would suggest they are not

The Narrm Curse
If they’d played in 4 I think it’s fair to say they would have been humbled in 4 Bottom 2 side

The Narrm Curse
Under all of your examples we play as MFC so fail to see how any of that is relevant

Dusty Martin
Or maybe he’s won 3 premierships and the fire no longer burns

Harrison Petty
When has he asked to be traded before? My understanding is that the noise is more to do with media hype and AFC playing games It wasn’t that long ago that Pickett was definitely going I’m not sure why he would want to leave a club that is a genuine chance of a cup vs a club that for the foreseeable future will be simply making up the numbers imo

Fritsch Sealer Multiple Commentary
Is the context of the game really that relevant? Personally I think it’s of less relevance than the skill of executing the kick For example player X kicks a goal from 2 metres out directly in front to win a GF - pretty relevant but GOTY contender nup

CASEY: Rd 06 vs Williamstown
Agree George looked a reasonable prospect on a very small sample size Our only forward that really looked dangerous Our depth is really being tested at Casey and it’s fair to say that there were quite a few running about that are not really up the standard
-
CASEY: Rd 06 vs Williamstown
He played in Q1 but didn’t notice him get a possession Best Casey player in the second was Roy George , Tholstrup a couple of nice things the rest pretty ordinary tbh Jefferson looks way out of his depth and frankly has regressed from his moderate returns of last season
-
POSTGAME: Rd 08 vs Geelong
Just a baby in the context of the position he is asked to play and has averaged over a goal per match so far this year not playing as a permanent forward I really think you’re being a bit hard on him - he has in spades what many have not offered before him - courage and aggression which are fantastic qualities that are very important if you’re going to succeed at this level He will only get better with more games and building his footy IQ Hawkins hasn’t kicked a goal in 4 weeks playing as a stay at home FF - so JVR is doing just fine

NON-MFC: Round 08
Windsor has been good so far Kolt vs Wilson ? On exposed form Wilson is ahead

Rory Lobb
If he was 5 years younger we would have the benefit of 20/20 and know that he is no better than Schache
