  1. For me JJ's best chance is to somehow push Hunter out and play wing - I'm not being critical of Hunter but if I'm JJ that's the spot I'd be looking to take
  2. My comment was heavily biased toward each players ability to contest in the air and on the ground. These qualities are clearly what the coaches value and reading between the lines it is the reason both are playing at Casey. You call it lazy and unfair I call it accurate. I don’t like criticism of our own players and usually do my best to avoid that however I believe it’s fair to say BB’s best football is now behind him. Not saying he will not be selected again but he needs to demonstrate some improvement in the areas mentioned to warrant selection.
  3. You can only work with what you have Not many will agree with me but if Petty goes back into defence I really believe the best options to replace him are are fit TMac 🤞 or Joel Smith
  4. Will Powell has to wake and look in the mirror every single day - I think that’s punishment enough
  5. Could it be that this is what happens when lawyers get involved? Apologies in advance to any of our learned friends on Demon land
  6. short attention span 😃 ? or do you think one of them is strong in contested ball situations. btw not sure this contested ball stuff if legal anymore
  7. Not sure about that I think there is more to it Our lack of talls in the F50 that can physically compete and bring the ball to ground remains an issue. It probably explains in part why we are so keen to make sure a 6 gamer doesn't get suspended for something that wasn't reportable. Its not like he has been kicking huge bags of goals - its the work he's been doing to compete hard which has kept him in the team. Consider this Schache - not great at physically competing in air or ground IMO BBB - see above TMac - seems to be laboring with some sort of injury or just terribly out of form Joel Smith - injured and only just now coming back and according to @titan_uranus is not smart enough to be a forward (sorry mate couldn't resist) Fritta - not really a contested beast JVR - will he play? - does compete well but he is a 6 game player and will struggle if gets defender #1 each week Matt Jefferson - a long way off being ready Given the above we have done pretty well to date - having Petty in the F50 has helped IMO not sure how things would have panned out if he had stayed back
  8. Hmmm and how exactly have you landed on that assessment?
  9. After May went to King and with Petty forward, they were always going to get a mis match on Casbolt. Neither of Turner or Lever can match Levi in strength or aerially In hindsight Tommo may have had been a better match up for Levi but overhead he isn't that great IMO In the end Casbolt's game was probably in line with his career average - maybe one goal extra Turner is a good player that will improve we just need to give him a better match up in future
  10. If I was the AFL (thankfully I'm not that stupid) I'd be more worried about allowing someone like Paddy McCartin back onto the field with his clear history of vulnerability to concussion - seemed like a very big call at the time and in hindsight perhaps not a good one
  11. Quote from Will the Dill “It’s widely covered now that if you make contact with the head and don't make contact with the footy, you're going to be in a bit of trouble. “I think the MRO is doing a really good job of staying on top of (these incidents) which is perfect. “He didn't make contact with the footy, didn't have eyes with the footy and smacked Charlie in the side of the head. “I think he got what he deserved, the MRO is doing a good job.” Now compare the pair 1. Not watching the ball (tick) 2. No contact with the football (tick) 3. Smacked opposition player in the head (tick) 4. Seems he didn't get what he deserved (tick)
  12. For someone not watching the ball he did remarkably well to get a fist 2 mm away from it - uncanny actually
  13. I assume if we lose this appeal we can just get rid of contested possession as an AFL stat going forward. Closest to the ball just gets possession. I assume after that players will be able to chase and tackle? Is tackling contesting? Oh, it's becoming a bit confusing.
  14. There was no concussion here
  15. Max gets thumped in the back of the head week after week after week Not even a free kick - sorry mate can't agree with you Listen to Jono Brown , Riewolt and Hawkins - players are told to make all efforts to bring the ball to ground (spoil) that was his only focus - in the process of spoiling the mark a glancing blow to the head, the damage was way overstated with the abundance of caution / stretcher. Not concussed, fine to play next week. Sensible cautious approach when he thought he heard a crack in the neck, but no damage done. If he had of got up just like Bowey, we wouldn't be having this discussion.
  16. WTF? that doesn't make any sense So in the case of Mabior Chol there wasn't a hint of almost - but nothing to see there 🙁
  17. And so he should be it was clearly high and clearly high impact
  18. The vision released from behind the goals really does make this charge look like a farce hopefully some sanity prevails, and the lad is free to play this week.
  19. Will showed a bit in the pre season games and I was very keen to see him in Casey colours. Shame he has had an interrupted season as he looks quite promising. Ruck and possibly even develop as a key forward is his chance. Can take a mark, looks pretty mobile and he is a decent size for his age.
  20. Less so than Chol on Bowey if you ask me but Bowey jumped up and played on
  21. GCS are a decent team at home make no mistake and they will win more games there this season than they lose IMO particularly with Miller in the team. I thought we played ok, but it was one of those games where things almost clicked but didn't. Fritta was well down, and he'd be very disappointed with his first three quarters and even more so with his poor goal kicking in the last. I don't want to focus on the umpiring other than to say I'm still shaking my head, at least 4 occasions Kozzie executed perfect tackles and clearly his opponent failed to dispose of the ball properly but play on each time - bizarre. JVR was trying to spill - yes, a bit clumsy but there was zero malice in that action and his fist was millimeters from the ball. In the end happy with the 4 points and we move on. Having watched most of the Casey game hard to make a case for BBB or JS as tall forwards so not sure what the plan is if JVR is out. Spargo might be an inclusion and hopefully Hibbo is ready to roll again.
  22. We are so lucky we have so many in form tall forwards who needs Weid wait hold on 🤔
  23. Yep simply incredible
  24. We will all be watching D Smith from now on given Maysie has pumped his Tyres up.
  25. Hope Steven May is reading this.
