I don't think they realised Gysberts has the work ethic of a sloth.

I was surprised last weekend to see Gysberts playing for St Kevins old boys in premier B amateurs. Hardly looked like a player with his experience in the AFL. Slow lazy and absolutely no body definition at all. A few ex Hawks VFL players looked bigger than he did, how did we get it so wrong?

Spencer and Gawn should be doing well (in the ruck) as their opponent is absolutely hopeless. Spencer did have a shot on goal from 15 meters out more or less right in front and barely scored a point!

If you're listening on the radio I wouldn't trust which players are being called.

I've seen about 3 different players been called as Toumpas in this quarter, Matt Jones has also been called McKenzie & Michie in the last 2 minutes.

Turns out there's a live video stream which wasn't posted at all before the game:

No idea what our/Scorps media dept. are doing to be honest.

Great ! Cheers for that!

Sadly there is a large pillar covering the 20-40m of the Casey forward 50, but other than that, a very good quality feed.

I posted the video stream a few posts above.

Thanks very much Seraph! I realized that & while you were replying to me, I was deleting my post.

Watching the live stream, I'm pretty impressed with Michie's game since half time. Disposal OK and gets a lot of hard balls...

Not sure about the camera being behind a whopping great pole but a great initiative.

How/why the club didn't inform supporters about this is odd. A Facebook post. Something.

Agreed. I only found out about it as Casey posted it on their twitter (at half time).

I would have watched the entire game had I known about, as I'm sure many others would have. Not everyone is able to get to the games at Casey and plenty would be interested in watching approximately 1/2 our team play a competitive game.

Rudimentary streaming tech could fail if too many using it ...

once again, the comms from the mfc are ridiculously bad. the very fact that this stream is happening means that it would have had to have been set up some time ago - at the latest during the week. it really doesn't take much effort to communicate this sort of thing to fans.

It's worth noting that it's a stream that's being run by the local radio station, rather than Casey/MFC.

Someone surely knew about it though, it's at their own ground after all.

these commentators are terrible, call so many players by the wrong name

We can confidently say those boys don't understand much about football or know what the players bring to the table so let's not worry about those.

Michie, Toump, looked good so far

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
