spirit of norm smith

Mitch Hardie , Riley Bonner, Jai Culley , Deakyn Smith … should all be regulars when fit, even with a relatively solid Dees listing I think these recruits will likely still play mainly with their local clubs and fill in at Casey if MFC players are unavailable/injured Riley Baldi, ,Chance Doultree, , Tyson Sruk, Patrick Ireland, Mitch Kirkwood-Smith.

Gus. Harmesy. ANB. We still love ya ❤️💙 Boys look all happy. Beautiful memories with mates.

That’s tough. He will need to rest his voice or risk a permanent husky voice !

Dees number 1 ticket holder in 2025

He will advocate for the cultivation of warm-heartedness and human values such as compassion, forgiveness, tolerance, commitment , contentment and self-discipline.

Played against him in our school footy. He was good but thought he was better than everyone else !!! Unlucky not to get in an VFL list back then but like most of us, was not good enough. At least he finally gets his chance to be in an AFL system. Hope he helps us. ps. A calm mind is the most lethal machete to chop the miseries of our life. We spend almost all our time listening to the things people are saying that we rarely pay attention to our conversation with ourselves. It's not always what we hear but it's our inner conversation with ourselves that shapes our life.

@Langers15 it was as predicted. Molly O👏👏💙❤️

Agree @KC from Casey our player depth was lacking last year with only White, Steele, Edwards, Cross & Windsor probably in my view being “at the level” required. This recruiting drive addresses the gap with some seriously talented non AFL listed players. Look for a big improvement in 2025.

Pisano plays round 1. Very impressed with her debut season

Maggie Mahony. Plays like … Eliza West. Strong contested ball winner. Nothing stylish. Nothing flashy. Hard worker.

Wow. Casey admin has seemingly woken up and got serious about the club. The exit of guys like Munro, Steele and White was taking the heart out of the team. It’s important in the alignment to have a strong core group. This benefits the MFC as those players listed for AFL get strong experience and create a winning culture. It’s interesting as well that guys like Culley and Hardie see themselves as having the chance to impress for an AFL list spot. They are very good signings and will demand a key role in 2025. Deakyn Smith’s return is a huge plus. Bonner also is still AFL quality and will also suggest Casey is a contender next year. Kirkwood-Scott impressed so much in the Coates League. His disposal by foot is elite both in skill and distance. His courage at Sandringham and Haileybury also makes him a developing small defender.

TAHLIA GILLARD. HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY Wow. What a pick !!! Pick 42 in the 2021 draft. Since then she has come a long way. Tahlia has gone on to be a great competitor, key defender, part time ruck and importantly a superstar person off the field. Such great achievements already as a premiership player and recognised as a rising star as well as underage best team honours. She is a definite future leader. Hope she has many many more years in the red and blue. A nice long contract please. Tahls standing tall. 💥 Tahlia Gillard is joint leader of spoils this year with 44 spoils … 2024 equal league highest. 👊 #DemonSpirit https://www.facebook.com/MELBOURNEfc/videos/aflw-round-9-rising-star-nominee-tahlia-gillard-/631905642015319/ https://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/1656196/wk-3-post-match-interview-tahlia-gillard?videoId=1656196&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1726381496001

Molly O shout it out … https://www.afl.com.au/news/1263084

Hawthorn has been unable to unlock an agreement for Harris throughout the Trade Period, with the Hawks not yet willing to part with pick No.14 or slide that selection back in an effort to secure the four-time All-Australian. I’d tell Hawks to f-off. Sure Harris has had injuries but imv she’s still a talent. Not many players can do this. https://www.afl.com.au/video/707891/harris-proves-the-difference-in-scary-good-outing?videoId=707891&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1645437974001

@Langers15 thanks. Molly has a really solid personality and desire to succeed. She would fit into the club. Love to see if we chose her. Pace. Strength. Footy smarts. Brings a taller onballer mix.
