Good addition imv.

Sorry yes I actually meant Ellison rather than Goonan. Ellison looked very handy in some games and had a day out when he kicked 6 as a midsized forward v Werribee. Then the shutdown happened. Be good to see what he can do with hopefully a full season ahead. Still time ahead as he’s only 20.

Jay Lockhart - going to Southport Zac Foot - going to Southport Corey Stockdale - to Norwood SANFL Corey Machaya - local footy Cora Lynn Jack Hutchins - off to Mansfield Two of the better Stingrays in 2021 Clayton Gay and Bayleigh Welsh are off to West Adelaide SANFL Seems many youngsters want the guaranteed game time rather than the limited or unlikely call ups to Casey Looks like it’s Matt Buntine plus the likely returning group of White, Munro, Grey, Sparkes, Freeman & Goonan.

Family friendly … no !!! Wanted a massive round 1 Friday night fixture for the Dees v Bombers or Cats or even Dogs. Got a Wednesday night. Hmmmm nah yeah nah why not the Friday night as Dees v Dogs ( why Stk v pies on Friday as two underperforming non-2021-finals clubs )

Equal first. Garland and Febey

Listened to this again this afternoon. I think being confident and in the right mindset is vital in elite sport. Goody also showed a human side and connection not just with the footy aspects but his own self. Very refreshing and engaging. Again a very good 30 minutes listening particularly as Reigning Premiers. 🏆👍🏻❤️💙

That Best 22 looks Premiership quality 🏆❤️💙 Casey depth squad is a good balance between depth and development. Guys like Hunt, Tomlinson, Dunstan, Weideman, Jordon and Melksham will be putting their best case to get in the team. That drives the best in all. I would also expect Laurie to get a debut in 2022 if he stays healthy. Very smart skilled youngster.

Lock it in. I like the reasoning and connections where possible.

Spot on. #45 would be perfect. Wheels as his mentor.

Thanks. It’s a very good article. Max is a legend 🏆 Definitely going to get Max’s book. On the must read list.

Jed Hagan looked good in the WA team as an under ager player. And he’s from East Freo … the Dees new feeder club. 😆😆. He is potentially one to watch out for in 2022.

Prediction: next year will be “unpredictable”. Like in 2020 and 2021. Disruption, change and unpredictability. Perhaps the one true call out is Clayton Oliver for the Brownlow in 2022. He’s one of our very best ever to wear the red and blue. A champion no doubt. Bailey Laurie to debut Luke Dunstan to get at least one best on ground & 3 Brownlow votes Ben Brown to kick more than 50 goals

That’s really disappointing He was a quality young player. Showed good form in the limited Casey games in 2021. Was hoping to see him in a full year. Very evasive type, nice skills and good goalkicker. Probably thought he wasn’t guaranteed any game time at Casey.

Taj. Welcome to the Dees. 👍🏻🏆❤️💙

AMW … Welcome aboard to the Melbourne Footy Club 👍🏻❤️💙

Sir Jason Taylor , Lord of Demonland. Earl of the Draft.

Pick 65. Melbourne. Father son nomination. Taj Woewodin fantastic news !!!

Yes there’s a few $$$ splashing around in Qld AFL for young blokes. Not a bad move given Casey CANNOT GUARANTEE HIM ANY GAME TIME. It’s frustrating for blokes and they seek games at Frankston etc that are not aligned or go interstate.

Agree. JT is a draft strategy zen master. Gets us two great youngsters and then back into 2022 for future drafting strategy and moves. He just nailed it AGAIN.

Yes called this out earlier. Smart move. JT is a zen master. No doubt.

Howes. Pick 39. A great result. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It’s Blake Howes. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻That is a great result

Pick 39 - Blake Howes

It’s Shifter Spotlight. Maybe go through the picks then let him do a post review. Young blokes must be so anxious.

Blake Howes? Are we still a chance ??
