Three Quarter Time: Casey Scorpions 9.11.65 to Sandringham 7.12.54

I noticed Lucas Cook had 6-7 touches in the first quarter. How is he playing today? Is he clunking a few grabs?

 
 

Earlier this year Beau Wilkes kicked three goals and was probably the difference for St. Kilda v Melbourne.

He's repeating the dose today for Sandy against Casey.

Scorps lead by a point but they're under pressure.


Tom Couch goes bang from 50!

 

Farren Ray misses as the siren goes.


Farren Ray -can he kick it 50?

No-what a game.

commentators been terrible, i reckon they missed 3-4 of couch's possessions and gave them to collins. same with the tynans.

... and Ray's shot misses. A 4 point win is just another day at the office for Casey.

Casey Scorpions 1.4.10 6.10.46 9.11.65 11.15.81

Leehow - they did have issues early with calling Couch but he didnt help by not gettting much of it.


Another pass from Spencer in the last quarter 25 meters smack on the money and in the rain as well!

What a kick this guy is!

you beauty , 4 pt win

He had 6 disposal in total - one of which was his last kick. I doubt they only called one of his touches.

what im saying is i think he had more than that. i heard donegan and booth 3-4 times call collins' name when couch got the ball out of a pack

I thought Gysberts and Martin showed AFL quality today. Gysberts in particular could add something to the midfield rotation.

Youngsters in Davis, Sheahan, Cook, Tynan, Williams all pretty far off AFL level.

Spencer was beaten in the ruck, especially in the around-the-groun throw-ins. i'd be seriously scared if we had to rely on him at AFL level.

Petterd and Bennell showed glimpses of class, but it just hasn't clicked with those 2. May not have a future at the club if they don't lift to another level.

Petterd almost lost that game for Casey with an extremely undisciplined piece of play two minutes from the end 20 metres out.

Gave away a free kick when Martin had knocked the ball to ground.

P--s poor effort Ricky


Honestly, looking at that game there weren't many who would warrant a call-up. Martin was really good, especially in the wet, and Gys did some good work in the tight spaces. Aside from that I can't see anyone knocking on the door.

What about his short passes sylvinator!!!

Good to see Strauss get through a full game... he does something well that a lot of melbourne players don't, provides a shepherd.

 

Scorps very lucky. Fwd line was hopeless in last quarter...

Casey dominated play in the third and last quater. Forward line seemed completely lost. Poor disposal into it as well.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
