Gaz just reporting on Triple M that Jack already put one player out of the game, but then got hit by Wojinski and was down for a minute, which was, as Gaz said, probably the longest he has ever been down his life. toughest young player he's ever seen

Was the other guy stretchered off?

No - David Wojcinski landed the bump. Jack was down on the floor for about a minute and then walked off the ground. Then walked around the boundary line to the rooms.

Scorpions by 53 points - 25 min mark last quarter.

Of course it's perfectly acceptable. Who could be critical of supporters barracking for them or considering them "ours" ?

Although I don't and they're not Melbourne's team. They're just irrefutable facts.

What a load of rubbish. Get your facts straight.

If Casey is not Melbourne's team in the VFL who is? Is it still Sandringham? No they are St.Kilda's team. Is it Frankston? No they are a stand alone team.

Gee 'Ben-Hur' you have got me stumped. It appears that if Casey is not 'OUR SIDE' then we do not have one in the VFL.

I think I know the problen Ben-Hur you do not have a Melbournefc membership so therefore your do not have a membership of the Casey Scorpions.

It's called an affiliation. We are not the Casey Scorpions Football Club.

I've been a member since 1996. I was at Dallas Brooks Hall that year too as part of the Demon Alternative group.

I said "let's not derail" and I won't respond to you further.

If true and I guess it is, absolutely shattering news about Gysberts broken jaw. Melbourne continues to struggle to keep its young players with potential on the park.

K rock's like listening to a SA station - some chook just stated that Watts hasn't done much.

Give us a break. Apart from his four goals at this late stage of the game Watts would be close on 20 touches.

Viney is now off the ground after that collision.

And the siren sounds. It's all over with Casey Scorps 22.8.140 to Geelong Cats 14.10.94.

Cold here and nothing to do for an hour but walk smugly among the Cats fans.

Best for Casey were Watts, Bennell and Fitzpatrick.

Why are you implying that there is something Melbourne could have done to prevent a collision injury like a broken jaw.

Broken jaw is 6 weeks out. Gysberts horrible start to 2012 continues.

I know I feel obliged to follow Casey (just as I was to Sandy once upon a time). I take a keen interest in the Dees' VFL affiliate Casey because that's where our boys play!

Yes, completely understandable. Who has suggested otherwise ? Why do you think I'm reading the thread ?

Any news on the Gysberts injury?

Yet another first round pick with heaps of talent missing games. We must be the unluckiest club going around. Watts, Gysberts, Jurrah, Blease, Petterd, all playing at a lower level, yet have more talent than nearly all their counterparts playing for Melbourne this week. It's a sad state of affairs at the moment.

Well done to Casey today. Sounds like a very solid win!

The MFC can hardly be blamed for this turn of events.

twitter on the MFC website said that Viney also suspected broken jaw as well. 2 in the one game ain't great, but you imagine it's cos the boys have their heads over the ball, so its an unlucky injury for sure.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
