A quarter of two halves.

We were great in the first half of that quarter, and rubbish in the second.

I get the sentiments of playing Aussie, but gees if he isn't able to chase, he should have stayed home.

Jack Watts has had a hand in every single goal tonight, or close to it. Standout forward on the ground IMO.

McKenzie being done for holding the ball... OMFG. I nearly threw something at the TV.

And if somebody doesn't smash Chad Cornes' head into the turf tonight, I'll be disappointed. The guy is a piece of shite.

Why is that?

I cant remember ever giving advice before, so what do do base your comment on, given theres no precedent?

..Or are you just poopy cause you got excited, made a dumb brash comment and I called you out? demon_wink.gif

Ugh!

It got nothing to do with precedent. Well done.

Miller with 3 to half time is a good effort.

Even you could work that out....Well maybe. :rolleyes:

If we do not stop doing stupid mistakes in the backline we will win this game.

When we got 30 up we should have at least took some of the sting out of the game for 5 mins.

That desicion against Jordie was a disgrace and if McLaren got dropped for his few mistakes that umpire should be skinned and salted.

Watts has looked very good tonight.

Grimes needs to learn to not over commit, twice he has been made to look foolish and it has cost us two goals.

Holy moly . . . Austin Wonaeamirri has been not-so-good tonight. He needs to get his body right if he's going to be an AFL player. Jetta, Jurrah, Watts, Bennell, Green, Petterd with the backline we've got and the mids we're building. Look out.

Darwin or not, Wona should not be in the team, he is weeks away from AFL fitness.

Gotta get going down the corridoor again. if we get 5 goals up again, just back off for a bit, keep possession.

Yep wona has looked pretty off the pace, no real second effort tonight.

Not the sort of conditions to be carrying a player in either.

If he only gets 5 possessions he needs to kick or have a hand in 3 goals to even break even.

Nev Jetta is playing a great game. His tackling is incredible. He is tough and making great decisions. Can really play.

BOG so far.

This Wannaemerri selection could really come back to bite us. We are basically a player down.

Ive had a gut full of umpires ruining my football experience.

Miller and watts deep forward was working so why is miller now roaming the half back line Bailey????

Sorry to say, he is the weak link at the moment, and he shouldn't have played, only two games at Casey Seniors, your kidding! But there is a 1/2 to go, Prove us wrong Aussie!!!

He, Davey and Bennell are loving it out there, you can just tell. They are like kids in a candy shop.

I've actually been impressed with our three big forwards tonight, for their ability to adapt to the conditions. Jack Watts is so ridiculously agile, which is why he went at pick 1. Does things that midfielders struggle to do, and is really really good at keeping his feet and bouncing straight back up.

Sylvia has been good, thank god. I'm not so sure about him rucking, but it's entertaining to watch. At least they have given him so much responsibility today, he has no choice but to pull his head out of his behind and get going. He owes us one after 3 terrible weeks.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    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,
