First game I've been to this year, and was very impressed with the overall team play of Casey. Welsh mentioned "DI's" at the final change, that we needed to have 600 for the game and we were right on

Dominant quarter by the Scorps 19.9.123 EFC 7.12.54 Kent with6 or so touches and a goal. Not even MFC could screw up Hogan becoming anything less than superstar.

Just got in, not a whole lot to add to the previous reports (and KC's gonna come on here and make me look silly soon enough) but: Magner, as well as being good at the stoppages, seemed to be working

A preview of the game on the VFL site - Bombers v Scorpions preview

Worth going down to Windy Hill for nostalgic reasons and also to catch a look at the premises opposite the road from the ground which form the basis of so much of what's in the news in the sport of late.

& Jack, give a wave to the old bowlers who maneuvered the "Flying High team", out to a new hangar. :)

Not sure if this has been covered, but, is there a reason as to why Barry is missing from the squad?

I think he didn't get home after last weeks game till 05.00am in not a good state.....That's what is being said,....

Casey lead 4.2.26 vs Ess 2.4.16

Hogan couple nice plays, good pickup and hands in one motion, impressive from a hulk

Wind would be favouring Ess, mostly across the ground but defiantly more that way

Daniher is a giant, skinny but a giant,

26 vs 22 as daniher kicks a long goal

Narrow quarter time lead to the Scorps - 4 points in an entertaining game.

Casey Scorpions 4.2.26 lead Essendon 3.4.22

Goals: Page 2 Best Kearns

Honours about even after the Scorps kicked the first three goals of the match. Bombers are brim full of Essendon listed players and playing with a lot of pep!

Qtr time Casey 4.2.26 to EFC 3.4.22

Best players Strauss, Hogan, Spencer and Page.

Hogan 5 kicks 2 handballs 3 marks

Great - I have been waiting for Strauss to start dominating VFL. He had a good game last week and if he has a good game today I think that will put him in the mix for next week. Although I would like him to show good form in VFL next week as well (3 weeks in a row) before giving him a shot in AFL. I think consistency will have a big impact on his confidence.

There is always a place for a player with a good kick in our team.

Late fightback by the Bombers but Casey had all the answers and lead by near on five goals at the main break. Some nice co-operation between Jack Fitzpatrick and Jake Best of the Scorps produced goals for both players.

Half time: Casey Scorpions 11.6.72 to Essendon 6.8.44

Stats: McKenzie 20, Rodan, Spencer, Couch,Nicholson 11,Hogan 10

Half time Casey 11.6.72 EFC 6.8.44

Rodan,Couch and Taggert prominent. McKenzie lots of ball but poor disposal.

Kent I believe has not touched it in the first half.

He's clearly bought in to the defensive crticism then but to the detriment of his natural game.

spencer and fitz have been dominant in the ruck, and around the ground their 1 percent and pressure acts have been superb. Spencer easily bog at half time for mine I

taggert has done some very nice things is a very good size now.

blease,rodan both been busy.

hogan has taken some nice grabs on long leads. daniher shaded him so far, reminds me of Paul salmon.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
