Any news on when and where next week is?

Saturday September 4

Seniors 2nd Semi Final

Casey Scorpions vs Northern Bullants at TEAC Oval 2:10pm

No chance of that because Bennell is no longer eligible for the finals now that Melbourne's season has ended. The bad news is that Matty Warnock is also no longer available.

Tough assignment. Bullants looked good against Collingwood.

Bennell played as though his season was already finished. Casey played one short with Bennell who didn't get many possessions but never looked like getting close to the ball or putting any pressure on the opposition ball carrier. Warnock will be a loss though. Was probably Casey's best.

Bennell was nothing but horrible. Terrible output from a player that has more than that to offer. Luckily for him his next game is not for 6 mths otherwise he would be a fair way back in playing for the Dees.

He is better than that and needs to show it, whether with Melbourne or Casey.

 

I believe that Aussie is eligible to play but wonder about him. He looked stuffed at the end of yesterday's game although things will be much easier paced.

I like to think he has been carrying a niggle.

Gee, he and Bennell can go missing across that half forward line.

I spoke to Dean Bailey about Bennell the other day, his answer was that he wasn't going to get a game in Adelaide because they thought he was running out of steam/form after a long season, but they persisted but dropped him this week, I assume Brad Gotch gets some say in who he wants to play, unless he wasn't given a choice.....


I don't rate the Bullants. Carlton stars or not, we should beat them. I've seen them play 3 times this year and they've not been that impressive.

Let's be positive and kick arse.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
