2nds The 2016 Casey thread

Dual Monitors ... plus one that isn't visible to any passers by helps too.

This is the only way.

I'm quitting in three weeks, so keen.

 

[wowlace]

New sponsor?

That's racist.

Losing the hitouts in a 40000 point win just confirms our fears that we are monumentally and biblically farked if Gawn goes down

That's why we have the wrecking ball midfield brigade. Shark the tap, annihilate anyone who stands in your way.

Just watched the first few mins to see Trenners cop his knock ... kid was out! Went down at Casey and came back up on a P&O liner in a monsoon

 

[harry000]

J.Smith equals Garland in DT points hmmmmmm.. Garland should get 20 touches on a bad day at VFL level

We possible could have done better if Spencer was available

With coke or in it's purest form as the gods intended?

I dont think the gods ever intended for anyone to drink bleach, mate, even they couldnt foresee what us Melbourne supporters would have to put up with.

Buyers choice i say.

What's the go with Spencil? Didn't play

 

[PerfectFooty]

What's the go with Spencil? Didn't play

Injured in preseason or something, really can't recall when or what but he's out with injury

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

What's the go with Spencil? Didn't play

Injured. Cause: His own existence.

 

[Cannon82]

So if Gawn gets injured (touch sea kraken), we will be playing Pedersen or Frost as our ruckman? Jeebus.

 

[Proper Gander]

What's the go with Spencil? Didn't play

Did something to his foot on the day of the intraclub

 

[TheCount]

Just watching the Casey game ... on my second monitor.

Poor old Mitch King doesn't look good at all, basically had a guy fall onto his lower leg. Poor kid.

In lighter news tho, ANB and Brayshaw are literally everywhere, and I've seen Petracca touch the ball 3 times, twice he was bursting through a pack, and the third time he just ripped the ball away, got a free kick, and then hit a 30m pin point pass inside 50 ... oh my.

This week's VFL player review is up. Unsurprisingly, lots of good feedback for the boys after a 140-odd point win!

I like use of solid to describe performances, let's you know that they played well but there's still more to do.

I mean you could look at that and say Brayshaw was sensational with 33 possessions and 2 goals and a mammoth inside 50 count.

Taking the quality of the opposition into account?

 

[Flyswatter]

Trengove knocked out and off with concussion, poor guy, not what he needed.

there's some vision of it at the 2:25min mark of the replay, he's coming in from the far side at the centre bounce. very wobbly when he does get to his feet. hope he's not gone for long.

Well that's the other thing, kinda hints that yes they played well but they were playing against potatoes.

 

[Djcjdees]

Mitch King ruptured his ACL. Spencer is already injured...

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

I only watched the 1st qtr so not sure if it improved, but it was very scrappy. Thought Brayshaw could have tidied up his ball use,maybe he did? Neal-Bullen used it quite well, he stood out for me.

 

[Blackas87]

I like Weideman's review, 3 goals last week and 4 goals this week, if he keeps this form up he'll get a debut not too far down the track.

I hope so! We need him to. Frost is nowhere near it.

 

[TheCount]

Still slowly working my way through this game around actually doing some work.

My man crush on Petracca is growing as the seconds tick, I just saw what the coaches have been talking about with Jayden Hunt's speed, he obviously just never got any space in the NAB because i dont think we saw it, but he just went flying through the middle of the ground, serious wheels.

While neither have done too much, Josh Smith has a good attack on the ball, and its a lot bigger than i thought he was, and Liam Hulett looks the grown adult playing among teenagers, rather than the other way around.

Max King is 200cm. Would be a tough initiation though.
