Casey Scorpions v Sandringham


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

This week's main game at Casey Fields is between rivals Casey Scorpions and Sandringham with the ga,e starting at 1.00pm.

It's definitely the ABC telecast match of the round (apologies to anyone who might have been misled last week) but with the Dees not playing till Sunday, let's hope we can get a good crowd to the game to support the dwindling band of Demon players turning out for the Scorpions.

A little bit of early news on players gleaned from various Demonlanders who attended the Foundation Heroes function the other night:-

■ Mark Jamar should come through his fitness test and could be a chance to line up with Casey this week;

■ Leigh Williams suffered an ankle injury against Geelong and is on the way to recovery but probably won't be available until the second week of the finals; and

■ Michael Evans has had a bit of back strain so it's mothballs for him until the pre season starts. Purely precautionary.

I'll be back with the teams for Saturday's games.

Did we find out if Jack Viney was suspended?

Would be good to watch him go around but I read somewhere that he might have been booked for something.

Don't know anything about it but when I checked the Tribunal results on the VFL site I noticed it hasn't been updated since round 15.

Either they don't report people in the VFL any more or someone involved with the site is a bit slack.

Got a week for a sling tackle on Ben Johnson

Club should suspend him for ungentlemanly conduct.

How dare he pick on an old bloke.

The youth today, what can you do ?

What, was it Him that was in a Blue with the bouncer at his local nightclub??? Locked up for 4 hours after the merry incident?

Anyone thought of Marigliani from Sandy as a mature age recruit?

He was on Essendons list 2 years ago and was injured, played a few games late and had some good games but was let go.

He seems to have his body right now, I wont say moneyball because I think that term is laughable but does anyone else think he is at least worth a look?

I expected a ten page thread based solely around the fact that Cook is named at FF for the 2nds.

It's obviously Leigh Brown's fault. Rubbish coach. Should be sacked as soon as his contract is up.

    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.
