2nd May Sundays' Casey 2nds vs Werribee

Featured Replies

Posted

If anyone is interested,I wandered down to Casey Fields (Casey 2nds vs Werribee 2nds)

to check on Wona, Spencer,and Sam Blease,and to see what other talent was on offer.

It was a steady drizzle driving to the ground.The game kicked off at midday.By then the rain had stopped,but made conditions slippery under foot.

I was paying more attention to Wona,Blease,Spencer but 3 Casey players stood out for me.

Wona: Didnt set the game alight,but played in spasms,when he was up and going, he was pretty good. Kicked a few nice goals,but generally still needed to be more involved.

Spencer: Played a very good game,took some nice grabs,considering it was a slippery ball. Played in the ruck,spent a small amount of time @ FF.

One passage of play he gave a Werribee rover,approx a 10 mtr head start, run him down and grabbed him as he kicked the ball. (Not bad for a big bloke I thought)

Blease: Did some nice things when the ball came his way. Nice kick,and good skills when under the 'pump'

But was mostly a bystander for 90% of the game. I didnt get too see any of his 'blistering' pace.

Chris Connolly was in attentance,which was surpring to see him taking a interest. Afterall this was Casey Reserves.

I had a short chat to him,before departing.

Summary: Of the 3 MFC listed players,probably Spencer was the pick of the bunch. But Wona got thru and looked to be a lot slimmer than when I last watched him play.He chased and tackled,just needed to be more involved.

 
 

2nd hand info:

Wona kicked 3 despite playing just over a half.

Blease wasn't on the ground a lot, still working through an injury.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
