Essendon v Casey Scorpions

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

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

To buy in defensively you need to show effort which he unfortunately hasn't in the first half.

    123 vs 54, smash up, and we will come home with the wind

    Our midfield of Mckenzie rodan couch magner ect, are dominating all clearances

    Hogan getting amongst everything going forward

    Daniher doing well with very limited opportunity

    Magner to be elevated at years end & play 2014 in the middle. Not that negative role Neeld had him in last year.

    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.

    Playing a full season with Casey and having a second full pre season will do Hulk wonders for 2014.

    Very good display from Casey. Spencer dominating, all Melbourne players have been reasonable but Hogan is an absolute jet. Watching him and Daniher is like watching in 10 years time. Nicholson butchers it alot. Magner been serviceable but not amazing, Strauss rebounding been exceptionally.

    Kent good offensively but I can see where coaches come from, struggles to run back- though he is clearly trying to work on it!

    I thought the Essendon were supposed to be one of the good VFL teams?

    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.

    Poor disposal by Mckenzie no surely not!

    I wonder if that was one of the reasons we allegedly payed overs for him - We knew the kind of benefits of having a draftee a year earlier? (Viney)

    I would also think having him in Melbourne for 12+ months would help him settle in. Plus he is worth the #3 pick. Happy to have him on the Red & Blue.

    Its good to see that he is not a selfish forward nor does he just sit 15m from the goals. He moves everywhere.

    with essendon suspensions they've lost hille, winderlich and pears which hurts them. Plus they'll be holding some emergencies over for their game like us with sellar and toumpas. Not being a VFL side they won't have great replacements.

    Anyone watching is Matty bate playing? If so how's he going?

    Not sure he was worth a pick 3 at the time though. I think we could have got away with giving up pick 4 and got Barry as well. Who would have been able to better pick 4? Anyway I am stoked we got him and if was given the option now would defiantly give up pick 3 for him (he is like an agile J Brown).

    i asked a few weeks ago how the notoriously terrible at player development Demons were able to produce two great KPP's in Neitz and Schwarz and whats so different about our player development these days

    Someone reminded me that Schwarz and Neitz came through the under 19's and that may have been a great base for them.

    I see Hogans season at Casey as a similar, if not better form of development for him. I am glad as hell he is not eligible to play for the MFC this season as it may have ruined the young kid,

    Jesse is going to be a superstar, and this season at Casey is going to be the perfect springboard for his career

    Pretty sure we would've taken Toumpas either way.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
