Defenders are doing ok but we are going backwards to try and run through the back half but we end up just turning it over as there looks like very little movement up the ground.

Again skills under pressure are so frustrating. Finally got some run, McDonald (Brissie) handballed to Morton who was smashed as soon as he touched the ball, turn over goal!!!

Was hoping we might have improved over the summer. Another long season ahead.

After hearing some nice reports over the summer and hoping for a decent contest tonight

well I guess we are going to battle getting out of the bottom 4

Another goal now and we are 27 points behind this isn't looking good early

Bennell has made some bad mistakes early, loving scullys hands, nothing looking good forward

Another turn over coming out of defence, turn over.... GOAL.

Our skills let us down but at the same time (it is hard to see up the ground on TV) it seems like there is just nothing up the ground for the defenders to kick too.

28 to 1 point 1min to go in 1st.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
