Richmond v Casey Scorpions

Featured Replies

Blease is a deadset [censored].. Could of given a handball to panozza instead he runs into him and gives a dont argue.. Panozza couldnt beleive it..

Blease a is a selfish dud.

Clisby was horrible.. Terrible hands and turned everything over.

On the other hand I wondered why Panozza didn't cut across the back of Blease and give him a shepherd. Panozza was running into the flank boundary.

Agree with you re Clisby. Butterfingers today.

As Roos has said several times the 2nds are really important for this club going forward - I hope they are looking at options. PJ has been awfully quiet lately - maybe he could twist the AFL's arm again and get some funding for a standalone team.

Casey is too far away for players and supporters - we should centralise. Melb Uni?... probably not.

If Panozza was close enough for Blease to give him a "don't argue", then WTF was Panozza doing asking for the handball?

GTFO of the way.

I'm sick of seeing Panozza's below-VFL standard efforts myself.

 

Mate he was 3 metres away and should of been given the handball straight away.. Instead blease drew the player to Panaozza and himself.. Panozza was one of the best afield mate and if you actually watched casey you would know he makes half the demon listed players look 2nd rate because he knows where to run..

I've watched enough games where he floats around acting like a spud.

Tries hard, but it's not enough.

Maybe you should get down to training and have a run then... You know... Given you are obviously a great footballer.

Getting really sick of your negative posting... Used be worth reading but that time has passed.

Nothing like a gross generalization, I have supported MFC for almost 50 years and live 10 minutes from Casey Fields.

What you meant was, Casey is to far from me and I can't be stuffed going that far, please relocate to my back yard so it makes it easy for me to attend.

 

Where was Toumpas????

Besty told me toumpus pulled out late because he was sick.

I'm just serving up truth burgers.

Maybe it's time you go vegetarian.

Just out of curiosity, I assume you were there today to see this piece of play?

Machsy wouldn't have to be much chop to better the spuds down at Casey.

Just out of curiosity, I assume you were there today to see this piece of play?

No. Obviously.

But I've watched Casey on other occasions and I'm comfortable that I know what type of player he is.

And I find him frustratingly ineffective in spite of his clear effort.

Effort clearly isn't enough for him.

Machsy wouldn't have to be much chop to better the spuds down at Casey.

I'm still not better by a long way.

Can barely get on the park these days.


We go for the midgets. Us and the saints.

NOT EXACTLY BACK IN TOWN by K C from Casey

The Casey Scorpions made the trip into town to take on the Richmond Tigers at the ME Bank Centre in Punt Road for the first time and lost their sixth game on the trot.

The result, a 35 point defeat in dismal conditions was rather flattering for a team that struggled to put together any semblance of cohesive football for the first three quarters.

The undermanned Scorpions who already had many of their usual VFL-listed players missing with injury, had to make do with a reduced number of Melbourne players when two emergencies were taken to Darwin and Jimmy Toumpas pulled out through illness.

It was a slow start under gray skies with rain threatening and the Tigers were up and about with the opening two goals. Casey struggled with its usual array of miskicks and mistakes and lost Max King early when he limped off with a knee injury. It was past the halfway mark of the first quarter, that Casey finally kicked its first goal through Michael Evans and Jake Best chipped in to level the score at 2.3.15 apiece moments later.

Unfortunately, that was the last time for the day that the Scorpions were really in the game. The Tigers kicked two more for the opening term and led by 15 points at the break.

Richmond had a tall side out on the park while Casey was light on for height especially with King out of the game. The home team also enjoyed an advantage in size and bulk and they out bustled and worried the lifeless Scorpions into error after error as they pushed to a handy 34-point lead at half time.

There was a slight improvement in intensity from the visitors after half time but they failed to gain any reward on the scoreboard with only five behinds for the third term that saw them fall in arrears by 51 points.

There were some rays of light for the ailing Scorpions which have not won a game for two months. Young midfielder Ed Morris who won the Gippsland Power Under 18s best and fairest last year, put in a stunning performance with 28 disposals, 12 tackles and a goal and was outstanding in the final term along with Nathan Page who added two to finish with three goals. Skipper Evan Panozza and defender Troy Davis were the team's workhorses setting an example for their inexperienced teammates, many of who appeared overawed but not fifth gamer Andrew Godfrey.

The Scorpions added six goals for the final term with Daniel Welsh chipping in with his maiden VFL goal at the end. The Demon listed players were hot and cold all day, the best being Aidan Riley while Sam Blease worked hard with his pace to try to lift the side.

Casey travels further afield next Saturday to Queen Elizabeth Oval in Bendigo to take on the winless Bendigo Gold who will be folding at the end of the year. On current form they should not take this game for granted.

Mate i have on a good authority Blease is abit of a nob, and his "team mates" can't stand him. If you watched the game you'd wonder how clisby is on a list..

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.
