Casey Scorpions v Geelong

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

 

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.

    Viney is definitely too young for the captaincy, I agree.

    Final score Geelong win 19.11.125 to Casey 8.11.59. Scorps in danger of dropping out of the top four.

    Anything to hold our hat on for next week? Any players to bring into our main side?

    Casey will get a few back, at least they should.

  • Quote

    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.

  • Quote

    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?

    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.

    • 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.
