Hamstring tightness sounds perfectly normal to me, especially after sugery. If he's actually done his hammy though, that's probably season over.

    Jones kicks Casey's 4th and sorry but I don't have a direct line to the medical rooms.

    Yeah but you're at the actual game right? You seemingly won't answer that simple question, and if you're there then maybe you've heard something.

    Thanks for the updates KC, your efforts are always appreciated here. Good to hear the Scorps might get 2/2 today!

    Half Time Casey 49 Northern Bullants 22

    Late goals to Hunt & Spencer highlights in a lacklustre term.

    ... and ditto for Hunt. Thanks KC, as always.

    Heard from a player during the week he was only slated to play a half. I'd be thinking he was taken off the ground and this Facebook poster has simply posted given he didn't return, but I'd think that was the plan all along. I doubt there's anything to worry about.

    Scorpions in control as Hunt gets his second.

    Hunt continues to impress by the sound of it

    Hunt is growing as a player - he now has three.

    He's the type of player who you don't notice much during a game and then he bobs up and has a big run or kicks an exciting goal.

    Another one, the impatient ones on here wanted to get rid of.

    Agree, although you can understand the impatience after almost a decade of no finals.

    Exciting to see him backing up after a few good games. Hopefully he can continue to do this for Casey for the majority of the second half of the season.

    Small correction Wiseblood if does not offend you too much.

    Nearly a decade in the bottom six.

    Did we recruit him as a back? The video on the MFC website says that he is relishing a new role as a forward.

    We recruited him for speed I believe...

    Hunt will definitely get a new contract now you'd think, possibly even a senior game before the year's out. Fortunes can change fast!

    Scorpions well in control and lead by 52 points.

    Hunt has 4.

    Awesome, go Hunt

    Soiunds exactly like the type of player we need in the MFC team too

    Junk time now as Casey coasting as the Russian marks and goals. Lead over 50 points.

    If anyone's interested in how Tyler Roos has gone, he's been pretty quiet. He's a slim lad and he managed only a few possessions - nothing much to report on him.

    Agree with all that Wise. Being an 'interstater' I've never seen him play, but from the snippets I've heard since he was drafted, he's a tantalizing prospect. Quick, good hands and a lovely kick, but doesn't seem to get a whole lot of the ball .... that's about all I've heard. Can anyone closer to the action fill in some gaps? Is he still very slightly built? Does he read the play well, and get to the right spots? What is his pressure like? Have most of his recent goals been as a crumber or long shots?

    Doesn't offend me at all mate, although it doesn't change the fact that we haven't made finals in a decade.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      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.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
