Yep forgot about him but not sure we have anyone in form to replace him. After all Scorps lost to a side with no AFL players in it.

Stay with Geary, nothin to gain by dropping him and nothin to lose by playing him.

If Armo doesn't get picked, I'll put my fist through the wall, twice.

Ferg in for Schneider maybe?

We are playing Melbourne.
Bring in players who are offensive.
Drop all the small defensives except Birss.

Have we got anyone (apart from Lenny0 with a bit of farking mongrel in them?

Bakes?

FFS I just wanted to see them put up a bit of physical presence in the game.

Looked lovely with no pressure on them in qtr 4, but absolutely soft as margarine all over the ground.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Will X be ready?
And its time to blood McEvoy. Either King or Gardiner can make way for him.

Benn like that for years.

It sickens me when a Saints player goes down....Bally Vs Shattack etc.

As much as I love Fiora. Seems like he may struggle.

Agree on Fisher and Dempster.

Hard for Geary to adjust to AFL pace after 7 rounds of VFL.

-And you look at the replacements. All blokes that have pressed for selection. Especially McQ and Ferg.

Dempster got praise from Thommo for his job on T. Johnstone. Didn't see the vision of the game so I can only guess. Didn't get the ball himself so that's dead weight as far as i'm concerned.

Surely Gram is due a spell at Casey! Yep it's a bit harder this year cos the opposition are focusing on you. Get used to it and give some back or F*** off.

Blake = serious liability, gives away goals every week.


This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

Out
Dempster
Schneider
Fiora
Gram
LYON

In
McQualter
Howard
Ferguson
Armitage
BURKE

I don't rate CJ, and think Geary may struggle to make it, but give them a chance, giving them one game up there is hardly giving them that. the players I mentioned played worse than them IMO.

Here's how I would line up:

B L Fisher Hudghton Blake
HB Geary S Fisher Goddard
C McQualter Armitage Jones
HF Birss Riewoldt Harvey
F Milne Koschitzcke Ferguson
R Gardiner Hayes Ball
INT King Dal Santo Howard Montagna
EMERG McEvoy Gwilt Allen

With Dal on the bench for being selfish and Joey on there as the next one out if his efforts don't improve

Sounds great. However it would be very surprising to see Lyon shown the door before seasons end.

Probably more chance of winning Powerball, but you can only but hope.

How is that possible?
Do you not think we are becoming more and more hilarious every week we play here?

Normally I am with you Plugger, but not this time.
He doesn't have the balls to drop them, and keeps playing duds whose efforts at the footy are deplorable at best.
IMO his game plan has killed Roo, confused the hell out of Gram and turned BJ and S Fisher into ordinary footballers.
Who has he developed, give me one?

Out: Fiora, King, L. Fisher, Blake

In: Armitage, McEvoy, Gwilt, Baker

Fiora was ordinary, Gardiner's better value than King, Dempster was better than L. Fisher (sorry, is alot better than Fish), Blake's just NOT a defender (Probably not a footballer either)

And lastly Out: Lyon, In: Alves

Well we all want to sack underperforming players maybe its time to look at underperforming coachs and their assistants .I can see plenty who have gone backwards in development not forward

Geez,love to drop a lot of players,unfortunatly there replacements will be even worse duds. If Geary and Jones are the pick of the Casey players then we are in strife!!!

Jones- Horrible. Don't care how good his workrate is he's still terrible and not up to it.Not even close.
Geary- Are you kidding me? I'll give him another few chances but today he looked putrid
Fiora- Time for a new career
L.Fisher- I'm sick of our mediocre slow dour taggers that don't do anything. He is no good.
Dempster- Hopeless. Kept Johnstone quiet but we need players who get the ball and that are skilled. How many taggers do we need.See above
Schneider- We all thought Roos was on drugs for letting him go for nothing. Perhaps we were...

Ins- Baker,Armitage....do we have anthing else that is close to AFL standard? Doubt it. So what do we do,drop the hacks for worse hacks and get belted for the rest of year and possibly pick up a good draft pick. Or do we soldier on beating a few crap sides,giving us a .1% hope that we can make the finals? I dunno??

P.S We are probably the worst tackeling side in the history of the game at the moment. Lets try and get that right for starters. Even people with no talent can tackle!
