ANB 24 possies... good signs early from him

Mitchell Whites stats are good too... anyone seen him play? What sort of player would you say he is?

    Alex Neal-bullen 24 disposals and Mitch White 21 disposals.

    Definitely some good signs here. ANB is showing his ball winning ability lately which is something to build on because if he keeps his form up he might debut sooner then later.

    Good to see pigdog have a good game aswell.

    Who played more time in the ruck, Gawn or Jamar? Was interested to see if Gawn got more hitouts playing number 2. Any word on Fitz?

    Whilst it's promising that young players like ANB and White got a few possessions, I'd treat them with a grain of salt. It's seems that Casey play a similar style to MFC, which is understandable, but unfortunately that style involves players racking up stats that don't impact the game.

    Our rucks had a combined 67 hitouts. Riley and McKenzie must have fed off the ruckmen, but both players are totally ineffectual with ball in hand. Casey only kicked 7 goals against a stand alone VFL club that lost alot of their better players in the off-season. That's a disgrace.

    Really?? The MFC is 18th for kicks, handballs, disposals. I don't see a lot of padding for stats there.

    The AFL team are currently ranked 18th in the competition (ie, last) for disposals. So what you are saying is to ignore any high possession games because the game style of those players is similar to the style of a team that does not get high possessions.

    That is completely illogical.

    Interesting that neither Jamar or Gawn named amongst the better Casey players.

    Jamar seems to be at the end and Gawn has never got started.

    Says a lot about our list

    Gawn was well held by Lucas Cook

    I must admit, while 21 and 24 touches are nice, it is likely that that would translate to 10 or 15 touches at afl.

    I would like to see some 30+ possession games from some of the casey players.

    I'd like to see some 30+ possessions at Senior AFL level!!!!

    We haven't had ONE this year. When was the last time we had someone that could rack up 30 stats with regularity? Junior? (its not the be all and end all but we are currently 18th in disposals). We need someone to get the pill.

    I have high hopes for White. If he can get his body right to play AFL he has all the tools to be a really good attacking HBF for us. His intercept marking is good, he has the courage to take a high mark in front of oncoming players and risk getting flattened and his kicking is all class. Decent pace too from what I've seen. The question has always been whether he can stand up to the physical side of the game or if his body will fail him. I think they need to be a bit more coutious with him and make sure to build him up physically before they put him into the firsts, but he could be a great players for us.

    Yep, good, nice work...

    I wonder if the IT brains trust here on d'land know how to make a template like that green oval, which we could use for our teams? would make things more appealing/interesting

    from the Mfc website

    MELBOURNE has finalised its list for 2015, after claiming Dandenong Stingrays defender Mitchell White in Wednesday’s NAB AFL Rookie Draft.

    White capped off a fine year in the TAC Cup, winning the club champion award.

    “Mitchell predominantly played as a rebound defender, culminating in a best and fairest for the Stingrays this year. He’s a long, raking left-foot kick, who has really good defensive nous,” national recruiting manager Jason Taylor told melbournefc.com.au.

    Melbourne now has a full list of 44 players for 2014, including 40 on its primary list and four rookies.

    Who would you promote out of White or Harmes? Both seem to be acquitting themselves ok.

    Harmes by a canter. White and King are a long way from playing AFL this year. Nothing against either of those 2 and have big hopes for both but they are still boys with a lot of growing to do =)

    Have to agree that Harmes is ahead. I think White is probably the better prospect long term, but he's not ready yet and I think he's got some work to do on his body.

    • 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.
