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?

    Will be interesting to see how Hogan & Daniher compare at the final siren.

    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.

    Casey Scorpions holding on to their lead. The Bombers peppered the goals, but the Scorps scored against the run of play to go 9.6.60 to 4.8.32.

    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.

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

    Looks like Neelds game plan works, and more importantly the players understand it.

    Thanks for the first half update guys.

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
