Casey Scorpions v Williamstown

thanks for giving us thr run down any wind advantage down there

Just as I always had faith in big Maxy, I have the same sort of feel about Fitzy.

He has all the tools to be a good player, great pace and ground skills for one so tall, good mark and kick.

Should only get better with age as most big men do.

 

Well done Tom Boyd, kicks the last goal to give footscray a 3pt win over port Melbourne, effectively ending ports finals campaign and locking in the scorps!

Williamstown have the advantage of the scoring end and have cut the lead back to 3 points.

Coburg still a danger as they're making a run.

Casey must win today.

Avalanche of scoring attempts by Willy, a few successful.

Casey 5.5.35 to 7.4.46

 

Forwards are Rush/Spencil on rotation, and Fitzy. Reckon Fitzy is only there because we had such a dearth of forward options last week to kick to, especially with King out.

Southern end for Willy this qtr which has the advantage of a mild breeze.

Though on a bike this morning could have sworn I was riding into a northerly gale.


Mitch White is building a solid repertoire in defence.

Another goal to Willy.

Scorps 5.5 toWilly 8.5 almost half time.

Half time and Williamstown lead 8.5.53 to 5.3.33

Goals Fitzpatrick 4 Page

Disposals Toumpas 15, Stretch 11, McKenzie 11, Gent 11, Newton 9, McDonald 8

Good to see Toumpas bounce back and be our leading possession getter with 15

yep a fan of bail trys so hard but just afl level


Toump is running around with a head bandage coming down low over his eyebrows. Must have copped a knock in the 1st qtr and possible cut / bleeding. Really can't say I have seen him much in the play so I'm staggered to hear he's had 15 touches.

Fitzy being trailed as a forward to (a) increase his versatility for us in the future or (b) increase his trade value?

I hope the former.

He was 'trialled' as a forward for years.

First score - goal in 3rd qtr to Willy after 12 mins of intense circle work up down and across the ground.

Toump went off injured after a head knock in a pack.

Billy Stretch is really impressing me this whole game. Marks strongly and uses it well.


Others who have been in the play are Spencil, Jordie, JKH and Newt. None have really turned the game in our favour and they have had possessions mostly by being put in the 'right' place to get a touch - on the ball.

 

Lovett spent the first qtr on the bench. Going ok now but nothing special so far. Couple of good things, couple of errors. Been outsized a little - he's not a tall kid.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
