Casey Scorpions v Geelong


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Casey Scorpions Pink Ribbon Game

This weekend's Casey Scorpions v Geelong match is the club's Annual Pink Ribbon Game to help raise funds to find a cure for breast cancer.

Saturday 4 July, 2015 at Casey Fields 2.00pm

Despite the great cause, the Casey Scorpions continue to be shunned by the media. The Scorpions have only had one televised game to date this season and Casey Radio which operates from the area for some reason has been covering other football matches recently.

With Melbourne playing out of town in this round, it is hoped that Demon supporters will come down and support their boys and a great cause.

The development league team plays Sandringham at Trevor Barker Beach Oval, Sandringham from 9.30am.

Huge chance for King to play a game as the main man forward for the Scorps. Similarly Newton, Michie and Harmes should get full chance in the midfield to impress.

Another injury in Lumumba and taking the 2 emergencies up will test the depth.

King was the Main forward last week..

I love the look of our spine with Fitzy, O. McDonald, Harmes and King. These four will ensure that we maintain some depth as we slowly climb the ladder.

It will be interesting to see the final line ups for today's main game at Casey Fields.

The Geelong interchange bench for the Adelaide game was Bartel, Bews, Jansen, Kolodjashnij, Luxford and Walker. The Cats most likely would have taken an extra player to Adelaide if not two as Melbourne has done with the Darwin game.

If all seven interchange players take part it would be a massive advantage to the Cats but in the circumstances, one can hardly complain.

Geelong's gesture is both humane and sporting and with no play last week due to the bye, they are at least entitled to get some game time into the players in contention for a spot in their AFL team.

The injuries at Melbourne and to a lesser extent at Casey will leave the Scorpions with no more than 10 or 11 AFL listed players which includes 3 rookies making their game today in the wet conditions, a very tough ask.

Radar shows the rain should be passing soon. Thank Huey for that! Cold enough as it is without being wet. Fuelling up now with a coffee before heading down for a beer, a Grouseburger ® and hopefully a good game.

Actually had physio this morning from a guy who grew up in Terang and knew Geordie Mc quite well. Said Geordie won all the school athletics comps for his age group. Played a lot of local footy with his older brother. Said his brother had trouble with kicking as well!

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
