Casey Reserves were competitive against top team Williamstown but were swamped in the second half to go down by 46 points.

No Demons in the team.

Quarter Time: Casey 0.7.7 to Williamstown 2.4.16

    Casey trail 4.10.34 to Willy 5.6.36 at half time

    Goals Dunn Hughes Maric Valenti

    Some apalling kicking for goal. Maric kicked into the man on the mark from 15 metres out and Williamstown ran the ball down the ground for a mark and goal to Little. Matthews missed an easy shot just before the siren.

    Should be in front.

    I have a theory about Shane Valenti that he improves as a game goes on. Im that case, Casey will win.

    Seems like Strauss doesn't work hard enough or something.

    He's supposed to be a "run the lines" type player yet is rarely seen. When he does run with the ball he looks promising.

    Where is Mckenzie??

    He hasn't had that much time on the ground to date.

    He was playing was pretty good early, but don't know what happend in the second quarter.

    WHY?

    I really have high hopes for him, the more time with casey the more chance he has to prove he can play with the dees.

    Hughes has been good.

    I agree.

    Dunn and Valenti are too good for this level.

    Wheatley must be close

    Bell is finished

    and it is the best I have seen Bartram kick the ball.

    No one is really starring.

    Maric fine.

    They have Willy covered comfortably now.

    You'll have to ask Peter German.

    He's been OK (how good is his tackling!), but you can really tell that many of the experienced Melbourne players with Casey today, are there because they have disposal issues.

    Dunn is so frustrating. Absolutely brilliant at this level, but cannot transfer that to AFL.

    Maric has had a hand in plenty of goals. He is a very smart player, and never should have been dropped when we desperately lack small forwards.

    Edit: great goal from Straussy. He is such a good user of the ball, but doesn't seem to get a lot of it.

    Another Edit: Cloke has certainly been enjoying his burgers since his early demise.

    gee strauss looked good and kicked a great goal on the run from 50m

    How old is Mohr? Rookie chance??

    1 point, 25 in.

    Hughes shot at goal bounces away for a point, down by 4 points 31 minutes

    Is there a skills coach at Melbourne?

    He must also be looking after the Scorpians.

    Unfortunately, I saw nothing from any of the Melbourne listed players that would suggest they're good enough to play AFL.

    Valenti was very good in the 3/4 of the game I saw.

    He's a very good VFL player, but far too slow for AFL...

    Although you could say that about Melbourne's entire midfield list.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
