What a frustrating game.. we handball waaay too much when it should be a kick forward.

Our Casey players are the main culprits.

yeah bad bad overdone handball

its a wind game, why stuff around with silly handballs and short kicks

kick long, structure accordingly and maximise pressure on their backline. the goals will come

    [censored] hopeless. We had an open player standing in the goal square and, while holding possession in our attacking 50, we handball to a player under pressure who gets tackled and forces a ball up.

    Dean Terlich been taught a lesson by Saad today.

    He attacks well but his defending is horrendous!

    Jeez Fitzpatrick is soo weak around the contest. Has had about 5 attempted tackles.

    M Jones handballs backwards directly to player under pressure.

    Sandy get a point and we regain possession, then on the kickin we kick it out of bounds on the full.

    Jesus.

    Oh god Gawn and Fitzy making horrible disgraceful decisions with the ball.

    Won't be seeing these two in the seniors anytime soon.

    Senior players or kids too?

    Surely your aren't writing off O Mac, ANB, Harmes, Hunt etc etc already

    yes because that is why where we are as a footy team, looking at players who are just not up to it,have been for years ,clubs like hawthorn geelong must laugh at our recuiting

    Being absolutely murdered this quarter, only thing keeping us in it is the windy conditions making goals impossible for both teams.

    4 set shots this quarter all missed for Sandy. We're screwed.

    We finally get a mark inside 50 and Michie completely blows it. Horrible kick to teammate which goes over the line for a behind.

    That's why he isn't playing seniors.

    Dean terlich is racking up the biggest junk time of disposal this qtr.

    Takes Every kick in but is getting taught a big lesson by Saad.

  • Quote

    Can anyone believe Terlich was given a contract extension. FMD!

    Whats worse is that he came third in the Bluey in 2013..... Matt Jones came 4th.. Sylvia 5th... just how bad were we, wow.

    So we get a great run on to our attacking fifty with fast ball movement end to end, then as we finally get the ball just outside 50, instead of playing on quickly we hold for 10 seconds and give every opposition player the chance to flood our forward line.

    The kick then gets spoiled, turned over, and Sandy scores a goal. Game over.

    Dumb, dumb, dumb football. ANB looks nice though, but he's surrounded by idiots.

    Nah.

    Good clubs like Geelong and Hawthorn play their kids in the VFL where they can learn and develop and they don't torch 18year olds.

    EOS could be looming with dark grey clouds for some of this lot. Sometimes the only way of ridding a team of bad decisions,poor footy instinct etc is to simply get rid of those committing the errors. If they cant learn....sayonara

    Mark Jamar is finished. Has been next to useless.

    Spencer will be our number 1 ruckman for the rest of the year based on todays form.

    The worst thing is there is no body to be excited about playing today. ANB and Oscar MacDonald excluded who else that played today that would improve our seniors?

    Shows our depth is very shallow

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

      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.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
