Casey Scorpions v Northern Blues

Who has been the best for Melbourne?

This is a Casey game dazzledavey but I'm assuming you mean who the best Demons are at the moment. The two big boys alternating between ruck and the forward line Max and Jack have been outstanding and have given Warnock a real working over. Matt Jones and Viv Michie are getting a lot of the ball. The rest are all contributing and Dom Barry is better this week.

Angus Scott has just goaled for Casey to give them an eight goal lead.

 

The scorpions must be due to stop running pretty soon!

There's been very little scoring in the first half of the quarter but the Blues have now kicked back to back goals to bring the Scorpions' lead back to 34 points but it's all too late for them.

What is the score KC?

Nice to see both Gawn and Fitzy kick three majors!


KC, How is Alex Giorgiou tracking? Does he look comfortable at the level? I've got a feeling he could be required to play a bit more senior footy next year.

And just looking at the stats, what happened to Salem after half time? One possession after the break.

Corky by the looks

cheers for posting the stats here

No worries.

Jones (26), Michie (26), Clisby (24), Harmes (22), Barry (19), Strauss (19), Gawn (18), Nicholson (16), and Georgiou (14). #PJVFL

Goals: Jake Best (3), Jack Fitzpatrick (3), Max Gawn (3), James Harmes (1), Matt Jones (1), Nathan Page (1), and Christian Salem (1). #PJVFL

Harmes coming along nicely ... 22 possessions, 8 tackles ... though going by the stats, everyone seems to have put in today.

 

Good signs from Gawn to back it up again.

I know Terlich is somewhat like-for-like with Grimes, but really not sure that was the right call over Jones, Michie (or even Strauss).

Bumped into a bloke at qtr time who I hadn't seen for a couple of decades. He talked a lot when I knew him a long time ago, and that hasn't changed. We watched the rest of the game together but I couldn't give any updates or keep a close eye on the players because that would have been impolite. Don't some people realise there are more important things in life than friendships???

Anyway, I thought there was a more even contribution from the team today and found it harder to find standout players.

Big Max had another very good game playing mostly in the ruck. He was up against Warnock and had the better of him most of the time. Took some more good marks and kicked 3 goals.

I was pleased to see an improvement in Viv Michie's form. He got a lot more of the ball than I had seen in the past few games at Casey, playing inside mid. Some good passages where he drove the ball forward out of the middle on a few occasions, one of which led to a goal as I recall.

Harmes continues to impress me with his energy and attacks on the ball, and mostly clean ball handling.

Nicho was again in a fair bit of the play but didn't dominate as much as a couple of weeks ago. Didn't see him really butcher a ball at all, but there was plenty of play that I couldn't see well across on the far wing.

Strauss had a just ok game. Had a couple of good passes but didn't cut up through the middle as much this week.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
