Casey want answers re Jack Trengove concussion

Featured Replies

Geez poor trenners looked groggy. Shattered by this hit, I had hoped he could push for selection by round 5. Very unlikely we will see him for a few more weeks now given the rules around concussion.

 

Almost looked like they were talking about a bit of action was needed at the before bounce, Bit of intent looked to be there by my intuition and by his gallop.

That was an extremely dirty hit, very early in the game. Clearly it was premeditated that they would go out and try to smash us around.

He had plenty of opportunity to avoid that bump and smashed him anyway.

If that were in the AFL, he'd be gone for 3-4 at least.

not so sure. he got back on his feet straight away which made his stagger a bit worse. if he had stayed down for a minute or so it wouldn't have looked as bad. still a lot will depend on how he went on the concussion tests

HUN reports he's OK to play for Casey this week


Did anyone else notice that it was also Jason Pongracic that took out Mitch King's legs rupturing his ACL?

Again, it appears that there is no obvious malice, but extreme carelessness in his aggressive attack on the ball.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
