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.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
