Werribee Tigers v Casey Scorpions


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Fitzy in the Followers line is a good sign for him.. Thought he might have been out of action for a while given his recent diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes. Hope he can continue to build a high level footy career for himself. Others have done it before him, but it's certainly not a given.

Quarter Time Werribee 5.1.31 to Casey 2.3.15

Goalkickers: Lucas Cook and Tim Smith.

The Scorps started sluggishly and don't seem to be switched on today.

Better players were Jordan Gysberts, Cale Morton, Ricky Petterd and Matt Fieldsend.

Stats leaders: Morton 8, Petterd 8, Fieldsend 7, Panozza 6, Allen 6

Sheesh!

Makes you wonder whether having that many AFL players in the team was a help or a hindrance! Would be grateful for reports on the various players' contributions.

Headed down today and wasn't a great performance from any of the boys really. Would characterise as follows:

Knocking the door down: Nil - nobody even close on today's form

Had a dip: Fitzpatrick (hosed by Daw for most of first half but beat him comfortably in the 2nd), Couch (good at this level but doubt he'll translate into a long-term AFL prospect)

OK in patches: Cook (starved of opportunities), Williams (see Cook), Jetta (faded but liked his attack first game back), Davis

Below expectations: Gysberts, Strauss, Morton, Tynan, Petterd

I'd give Gysberts and especially Strauss some leeway given it's their second game back. Cook and Williams couldn't have done much more in greasy/wet conditions with very little supply and appalling delivery when it did get into the F50. The disappointing thing was that the guys I would've expected to dominate at this level were the ones I thought played the poorest.

Werribee looked pretty slick and had Casey covered pretty much everywhere.

Pretty bad day-doesn't mean they are all hopeless though.

Something wasn't quite right today and I suspect that today's team was a fair distance from the best Casey can produce. Firstly, none of the three emergencies for Melbourne v Brisbane were available. Secondly, I thought a few of the players dropped to the development team were a bit stiff. Jai Sheahan has been terrific in defence for Casey for most of the year while McGough and Collins also played well last week.

With Melbourne playing on Saturday next weekend, all three emergencies should saddle up for Casey v Port on Sunday and I would expect a better performance.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
