just noticed we have a VFL game against the Swans on Sunday at 1pm at Casey. Assuming the sub and the emergency are back from Adelaide it could be a strong Casey side. Sunday weather looking not too bad.. 18 fine and a medium breeze

next week is a straight shoot out between BB and Weid. LJ is a better ruckman than both of them and offers more around the ground and say what you will in winter you can't play LJ and 3 other talls. One of BB or Weid needs to kick goals and/or bring the small fowards into play. The other is out. Perhaps in September there could be an argument for the extra tall but I doubt it.

we keep saying this but starting to wonder if they can improve greatly. You don't improve forward delivery overnight for example. Goals v Behinds is 50% luck... just ask Dusty The fringe players are contributing well Probably LJ has the greatest upside Sure there is scope for improvement but not sure it will come. Of course our present standard has been good enough so far

was intending to go on Saturday but the weather and drive put me off. Bulldogs is a real possibility. Would love a game at Preston/Windy Hill/Coburg or Port. Seems that the VFL draw pits the AFL related teams against each other.

Adelaide is Saturday at 5pm AEST so no way. Bears is Friday night game so ..yes PS sorry just realised you meant the Dogs...

regualtion 10-0 by next Saturday night OD...? the fun begins the week after Not too worried about the Dogs.. can stand a loss It's the Bears in Alice that is shaping as a big game

Won't happen but you have to wonder if Mitch Brown would provide better forward balance than both Weid and Ben Brown. The other issue is that the small forwards did not work well with the big men. Beautiful weather predicted for Adelaide on Saturday. No change.... May the big men fly

Suspect they will use the enforced break to freshen up LJ and not take him to Adelaide

don't think there will be too many Adelaide supporters attending but a lot of the seating is presold. Not sure if Adelaide members can transfer their seat for the day but if so there would be no problem. There will also be an allocation for the competing club which I doubt in this environment will be too full. Good luck if you go along... it's a magical ground

Regulation win nothing to excite.....

1 goal 6 for the quarter make that 1:7

what a fizzer of an ending...

let's finish it off with a 50 point win !!

couple more and it's game over come on

very good point

Whitfield is contracted until 2027 but one salivates at a swap of Brayshaw for Whitfield way too many dollars though Baker does not look as though he will make it so the other wing is up for grabs.

Does anyone know the crowd figure for Richmond v GWS. Docklands looked half empty on TV. I see that level 4 is mostly closed again for our game.

I've moved into Hawthorn supporter mode for this week and next. Regulation win ?

GCS.... Yawn

come onnnnnnnnnnnn North

have the Pies scored after quarter time? ahhh....... 3 points

looking like today at Casey could rival the North Sea winds.

watching Eddie last night he was saying that the only thing holding Thursday night football back was the FTA channels commitment to existing programming. Suspect the same applies to Monday night football. Others on the panel said players didn't mind a 5 day break as long as it was limited to once or twice a season

Yep I bet those wetlands on the outer side attract the Tiger snakes in summer. Once saw a large group of racing land yachts near the carpark. Life's not dull at Casey

Harsh but true unfortunately Most of those 5 behinds weren't hard at that level
