Casey Scorpions v Geelong


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Scorps can't raise a gallop as Cats get the first two goals of the third term. This is going to hurt.

Good to c the MFC players in the magoos are putting their hand up to play in the seniors.

Can we please end the season now and make all appointments ASAP.

Am over all this crapola and season.

Thanks for the updates KC.

Any comments on a couple of the young runners for the Scorps? Are Barry or Strauss getting any of it? It also sounds like Rivers has held Hogan since going on to him, or is that more a result of a dominant Geelong midfield strangling supply?

Three Quarter Time: Geelong 16.8.104 to Casey 7.8.50.

Last four goals of the quarter just when Casey was getting back into the game. Cats are pretty well dominant everywhere and the Scorps resistance was blunted by the blitz in the last 10 minutes.

It doesn't matter.

It does matter, captains are leaders as far as footy goes - usually men.

Viney, Hogan and Jones are men... Trengove is not a man.

I don't know, maybe it would be easier if I just kept bumping Kingding Alings Jones for captain thread to drill the point around here.

No, it doesn't matter. Players like Viney are way too young no matter what cloth they are cut from.

That is the point I was making. I suspect you're misunderstanding my drift. Don't feel alone.

Final siren and the Scorps are in danger of dropping out of the top four unless they pull their socks up.

Strauss putting his hand up with almost weekly appearances in Casey's best player list.

I just don't get it!

Why not just let him play the last few games of the season in the back pocket? What have we got to lose? (Would much rather him than a Dunn or Pedersen)

As i said in another thread, I'm pretty sure he ran over NCs cat.

Blease and Strauss should be getting gigs ahead of Pederson and Dunn because Pederson and Dunn are not part of our future.

Dunn is a turnover king and Pederson a spud.

We need to at least see if Strauss is up to AFL, we know Blease is, he is just inconsistent.

Blease in the VFL can be explained, he'll be a demon next year... But Strauss we need to see more of.

Surely Strauss would be worth a Run, unsure on Blease, think Kent plays the role we want Blease to play and will become better at it within another year, blease may be the crumbing forward we're after but i am really not sure.

Viney is certainly too young to be captain, make Jones the captain for god sake,

might be worth giving Trengove a run at casey, not that he hasn't been making solid contributions, just to play in a team more likely to win, remember what it's like to dominate games and maybe get used to not having the pressure of being captain of a basket case again?

Would Trengove get a game at Casey?

Blease did and then made the most of that opportunity with a 4 disposal game against North.

If Strauss doesn't get a game this week after another naming in the bests something is wrong.

Does anyone know if the Tynan mentioned is Luke or Josh?

Blease and Strauss are not the replacements for Dunn and Pedersen.

Pedersen was pretty good yesterday actually.

I know, Blease is a replacement for Davey - who stamped his papers this week.

Blease will come in next week, I understand why Blease sometimes gets dropped, it's just a consistency thing.

Maybe they pull their hair out with Blease a bit, which is understandable.

Pederson was ok yesterday and knowing our great club, we will probably reward him with a contract extension.

Strauss hopefully comes in just so we know whether he is even worth persisting with.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
