Northern Blues v Casey Scorpions

Featured Replies

Looks like somebody disagrees with you. From the coaches VFL player review.

"Viv Michie: Viv’s had a good couple of weeks. He ended up with 25 possessions and three effective tackles. Viv provided us with good ball use and linked inside 50. He ended up having nine clearances, which was the highest for the day from our midfield players, so his work around the stoppages was really strong. He played his role really well and also gave us some quality ball use and link-up work. I can’t fault Viv at the moment. His attitude has been tremendous since being dropped back to the VFL."

Yep. Agreed. I didn't see it that way. It's why they are coaches and I'm not.

TBH I don't notice him much in the seniors either. Seems to be one of those players that I just miss.

 

Sounds like Viv might get a run vs the Saints, hopefully not as sub

Professionalism also increases the gap between the elite and lower grades.

& tiredness & fatigue brings them all closer together, & one creative player can swing a game off his boot, if given enough space to operate within.

.......... ah, they were the days.

Do you have some sort of relation to Viv, it just seems like you have a personal investment in the fella.

Happy to see him doing well at VFL but unfortunately I think he has found his level, he is probably a cut above VFL and is a really good depth player at AFL. I hope he can come in and play well increasing competition for spots, but I think when he comes up he struggles to find the football, make good decisions and run out games.

I agree you tend to miss him and then he has 25 touches. Sort of quiet achiever (if that's the right word). He kicked a goal on Sunday and I did not realise until later. Apparently spent the 3rd qtr either on the bench or at HFF. Spoke to him post game. Said it was to give somebody else a go in the middle. Was back in the middle for the last. You aren't the first to say you just don't notice him but then realise that he has had a ton of it. I would like to see him get a few games in a row as I think he has potential.

No relation. Just feel he has been poorly treated this year and feel he doesn't get much of a go. I reckon he is as good as any of the youngsters we have. People think because he is 23 he has been around a lot longer than them. Unfortunately his first two years were virtually non existent due to injury. Probably just feel for him. Used to watch him at Peel Thunder.

  • 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.
