Game Day Thread?

Kyle Cheney and Lynden Dunn flew back from the Coast after not being required as emergencies for the St. Kilda game. As a result James Strauss lined up in the Casey seconds who had a good win.

Casey 3.6.24 Geelong 1.1.7. Juice has 2, Robbo 1. Best: Dunn, Cheney, Valenti, & Petterd.

Half Time: Casey 7.9.51 to Geelong 4.4.28. Goals: Newton 3, Hughes 2, Jurrah, Robertson. Dunn and Cheney the best. Robbo's missed a few.

Just heard the score in Geelong v Essendon. If any Cats fans are on their way here I suggest they turn around and head for the G or wherever they're playing the Bombers.

Off to the canteen.

Watts has been ok a few touches early playing on the wing sneaking down forward at times. Robbo has kicked 1.4 at half time has missed easy shots 20-30 m out. Juice has been good kicked three early, strong marking and 2nd efforts. Bartram very very quite till half time.

Scorps continuing on with their good form. Great goal to Dunn and Hughes has also just kicked a nice one. He's really playing well and proving dangerous.

Cheney is playing a special game today - outstanding. Dunn, Petterd, Valenti and Hughes among the best.

Robbo's kicked 1.6.

Freezing out here!

A third to Robbo and the Scorps push themselves back into finals contention with a good win over the Cats. A late goal to Jurrah, his third and its Casey 16.15.111 to 11.9.75 at full time.

Late in the game Robbo showed that he might have learned his less by committing the selfless act of passing while within range of goal.

All of Casey's goals were kicked by Melbourne players who were pretty dominant up forward. The Scorpions were well served by James Wall (ruck and defence) and tall backman Peter Faulks.

Cheney wins man of the match from me but here are the official club stats -

Casey Scorpions 3.6.24 7.9.51 11.12.78 16.15.111

Geelong 1.1.7 4.4.28 7.7.49 11.9.75

Goals

Casey Scorpions Hughes, Jurrah, Newton, Robertson 3, Petterd 2, Dunn, Valenti

Geelong Podsiadly 4 Johnson 2 Allwright Hunt McKenna West Westwood

Best

Casey Scorpions Valenti Wall Cheney Dunn Watts Faulks

Geelong Hogan Hunt Laidler Podsiadly West Allwright

Next week's game is on Saturday and is being televised by ABC1.

Report some time tomorrow.

Sounds like Watts is miles off having an impact at AFL level, disappointing for us fans.

Don't worry. You'll get 10+ years of joy from him.

Yes im still confident he will be a good player in the future, but i think deep down we were all hoping he would have a reasonably immediate impact given the raps on him.

Looking forward to seeing Jurrah play.

When can the rookies start playing? Hughes would have to be very close to selection if allowed.

I can't think of another recent number 1 pick who has had a slower start to their career.

Give him a break. He was taken at the age of 17 and only turned 18 a few months back. Just give him some time and he'll show us something.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
