As the song says... Too much, too little, too late

Been saying for years we should give some players a half game in VFL at different positions. Even if it has 10% success you will find a back up. Who knows if Tomlinson can play forward or Spargo down back. You don't need to rotate the whole team but say one half every three weeks for six players. Turner up forward,,,, never been forward of the 50m line to my knowledge. (Mind you he's been injured for so long it's not surprising) Too late to try it now Jefferson down back for a while next year?

Flying up to second place on %

In a comp where % will be all important this is a very good win

My logic is Port If we do get through to the GF I would prefer it not to be on the back of a match in the relatively draining heat of Brisbane. And we did win the last prelim we played in Adelaide

A GWS v Collingwood prelim would be a fun match especially if ................

You forgot to mention Spargo's ten screamers and 20 goals

No but we have a Petracca In 2021 he had a finals series to remember as did Max. Need to recapture that energy somehow. A warm dry night in Melbourne before a near 100k crowd might be a good place to start

We need to dominate the midfield. JJ is not the answer

Petracca needs to play midfield with Brayshaw out. The Casey player who has been "good" up forward over the last 6 odd weeks is AMW. It's him Woey or Spargo. Spargo's form at Casey has been middling at best but he has finals experience. Can't see Jordon or Laurie performing meaningful roles. BTW... Time for Sparrow to play a blinder !!

The radical move is Max to the TMac position and Grundy to ruck. Carlton will be forced to defend against Max on the 50 allowing space to Fritsch. Make sure Chandler is at Max's feet to take the crumb or handball. Max should not kick unless he has to.

If Blues kick straight cannot see them losing this one

seems that way from everything going around but as the appeals board can no longer up the sentence perhaps we go for it

Remind me why some things go straight to the tribunal. Please

Sounds like a sensible decision. I know he's been injured but only 50 AFL games at 28/29. Was he a late recruit?

Must agree.. it was more of a front on tackle. Feet leaving the ground is the clincher.... Do it at your own risk

Hard to see a better team from what is left at Casey. Next Friday's weather is showing as warm (24) and fine If Carlton I'd be including Tomlinson. Perhaps Turner if Sydney Forward... like the selection committee... I'm bereft of ideas

I had hoped to say who cares but unfortunately..... Go Sydney and Go Port

This is the answer...plus increasing accuracy is the other. We need to maintain a 3:2 goal to behind ratio. Last night it was 1:2. Finally the boundary line play through the two wingers has to be tempered by corridor run

The barrel has been scraped

Let's face it.. we have been NQR all year Win tonight and who knows but unfortunately all the usual flaws came screaming home Can't see us winning the next three

This is starting to get embarrassing. Can we score

4 marks to zero inside 50 All on the wayward midfield

Game getting away from us

Simply because we never make it a media issue
