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????

wona moving like a turtle looks like he ate a kilo b4 the game

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.

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
