    More practice for the backline,

    Also as a positive anyone in the best in Casey will have a game next week.

    A positive for me would be Bailey being sacked for four years of nothing coaching.

    2 positives. Wattsy and not being at the game.

  • Quote

    Watts was ok but hes not showing the form of a number 1 pick. Darling shows more.

    There were no positives this thread is a joke. NO POSITIVES!!!! POSITIVES FROM THIS GAME = DELUSIONAL (like bailey)

  • Quote

    Watts and garland where great.

    The only real thing I got out of the game are that I now have no expectations again this year. Getting use to this which is pathetic we are the only club that puts up with these kinds of loses.

    Positive is that we are one step closer to a new coach. If essendon can force the hand of their board can we do the same???? I'm over it. It's impossible to stick up for the club when they put in efforts like this time and time again. SACK BAILEY now or they are going to lose a lot of members and players like Tom Scully

    Watts.

    Tapscott's hardness and desperation.

    Trengove's marking.

    Garland.

    I agree with the first three, but it's hard to forgive Garland for his kicking in the first quarter. He, Grimes and Bartram gave them at least five goals from shocking kicks.

    I was thrilled with Watts, although there were a couple of times I thought he could have attacked the ball and won it rather than letting it come to him. It's something he needs to learn, as do several of our more senior players.

    Also loved Tapscott's hit behind play. It was a bit of a cheap shot, but it showed a little bit of fight when it was sadly lacking.

    What type of game plan is handball in the backline to stationary players who are also under pressure until the opposition get a turnover and hence a goal

    friggin' brilliant!

  • Quote

    One other positive is our game plan cannot get any more predictable

  • Quote

    Liked Watts' game but the team, overall was nothing short of insipid. I love this club, but they lack spirit and are bloody soft. I really cannot tolerate the how 'we are developing' argument after that performance. Frawley was terrible, Green has gone missing, Sylvia useless. No one seemed to want the ball or to be accountable. Honestly, Scully should take the money and leave this shambles of a team.

    Ohh another positive, I got a casey season ticket with my membership

    Positive? Officially Bailey won't be renewed. It will take 6 months minimum to turn this mess around and that takes us into September by which time MFC will be in summer recess.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
