GAME DAY - Round 14



Recommended Posts

A quick review of the tape and move on, better off to forget today. A few tired looking boys and lessons learnt. The team of old would have been belted to the tune of 10-15 goals

Vince outstanding, Cross good, Jamar good in the ruck, Dunn, Jetta, Tyson & Pederson all providing good strong effort whilst not being great.

North: the team of stagers, divers and divas. Good to see Kent give that dumbass ump a serve for that idiotic ducking free kick paid against him.

Of course, umps are so blind they fall for their Oscar worthy performances week in, week out. Fortunately you can't act your way into a premiership, which they'll never get close to.

Oh how I'd love to win today just to get them out of the top 8, yet the result would be Essendon moving to 8th place. What a miserable conundrum.

Is that the same Kent that gave the Idiotic handball only seconds before?

So instead of going fast and hard into our 50 when we have possession, we chip it around the edge and hold possession until North have totally flooded our goal square with players, THEN kick it in with hope we'll mark it. Forced stoppage, then Roos clear it out and run away.

Seriously, WHAT IS THE POINT? We do this over and over.

Kent, like the whole team (apologies Bernie), have been awful today.

That missed goal a few moments ago was equally braindead. He had multiple clean options but he kicked for goal beyond 50 and went out of bounds.

Chill. It's a game and I've seen far worse than this.

I reckon give Sam Blease a couple of weeks off half back and hopefully he becomes what Shaun Atley is for the Roos

We need players to be able to take the game on and we need a forward structure that means they always have options (who aren't out-numbered) up ahead to kick to when said player takes the game on.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
