KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Quarter time scores Casey 2.2 to 6.3. Casey so far given away 3 50m penalties resulting in 2 goals. Kicked into the opposition man about half a dozen times which just about sums up the rabble they are

Warnock here but not playing. Looks fit and ready. We can guess what that means for tomorrow

Strauss now had three kicks out of defense and missed two targets easily. Two goals resulted.

    Juice Newton kicks his second but a Strauss kick off hits an opponent for an easy goal. Port lead by 31 points and looking the goods.

    Half time and Port lead by 42 points after dominating the first half.

    Casey Scorpions 5.5.35

    Port Melbourne 12.5.77

    Goals Casey Scorpions Newton 2, Maric Petterd Wall

    Casey, with 15 AFL listed players, are being taught a lesson by the stand alone Borough team which is playing with great endeavour and moving the ball around the ground like pros. Garry Ayres should be putting up his hand to coach AFL. I appreciate that it's probably easier to coach a group of players he has at his disposal every week but Port simply looks better all over the ground in every facet.

    Prospects for promotion next week?

    Only Joel Macdonald.

    Half time Casey 5.5 to Port 12.5 Goals juice 2, Pettard, Maric, Wall.

    Most of the time Casey are playing like the demons second half last week . Bright spots Tom McDonald who look all class when he gets the ball, and Joel is playing a solid game also.

    I can see why Pettard was dropped . he doesn't chase, neither does Jetta, neither does Maric, juicesometimes but is very wasteful.

    Strauss should be playing Casey seconds, Howe should be promoted.

    This is too much like last week, I'm going home to read a book!

    Another goal to Port from a 50m penalty after a late Juice spoil. That decision might have been justified but the game has been marred by inconsistent umpiring.

    There goes another 50m penalty goal to Port. Really, it's become a joke.

    Port 102 Casey 56.

    that sounds to me like there is a doubt on Garland

    Yeah, that's what I thought when I read that Warnock wasn't playing.

    With three goals already it sounds like Newton might be playing another decent game, despite Casey getting pummelled.

    It's standard practice to pick one of the emergencies to not play ANY footy on the weekend, just in case someone gets sick tomorrow morning, or gets hurt during warmup etc etc... they never play all three emergencies in the VFL.

    Juice... is on the way to a ton in the VFL. :D

    If he ever came into the Dees side and did anything, MFC are geniuses.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
