CASEY SCORPIONS v WILLIAMSTOWN

Featured Replies

Loving the clarity of sound in the huddle of the throat clearing and nose blowing. Almost HD. 

Enjoy your dinner. 

 

First bacon burger down before qtr time. Beef bacon onion coleslaw sauce. I opted not to include the egg this time.

Yum.

And the radio guys have now picked up on Trenners name after I had a go at the boundary rider. 

:lol::lol::lol:

 

So we've stopped the double posts but now I'm getting triple emoticons.....

At quarter time Williamstown hold a 7 point break but are playing better and the Scorpions did well to stay with them.

We are finding it very hard to get it off half back and past the centre. Willy applying huge pressure.

Weeds very strong standing mark on the goal line!  And goal!

After watching him for 3 weeks I'm starting to think that Weeds has a bit more strength and solidarity in his body than first appears. He's not a strong build but often with him in a clash you hear a solid thump or slap as he connects really solidly with an opponent. Heard it again for that mark and goal. I wanted to keep him for next year before getting a look in the seniors but may have to reconsider.

No Dawes.

Next week we should see his return i guess along with Oliver, Oscar, Spencer & potentially Matt Jones.

Cheezus H Chistmas OLIVER IS R E S T E D!! and WILL be back next week in the Ones!! No Doubt!

So Oscar plays a coupla minutes in the 2s last week before concussion, plays no minutes this weekend, and gets into the ones next week?

He's here tonight and looks fine and even  said he's fine but I didn't see a halo around his head or wings on his back. 

Huey has really picked up his game this week. He's playing with fully twice the effort and desperation than I have seen from him before. And has 3 goals now.

It's 6.2.38 Scorps to 9.4.58 Willy.

For someone who self-proclaimed as rarely wrong, I'll hold you to that.

To quote Mission, Oliver will "absolutely, definitely, no doubt about it" be playing at Casey before coming back into the senior side.

Doh,.. Not talking about Oscar Mc Donald ! Don't muddy the waters! Talking Clayton Oliver, AKA Clarry Choo Choo A Bloke who can Play!! And who will be back next week!

My bad. Trying to watch the game and post. Obviously not a multi tasker!  


Hulett 3 goals before half-time has Jason Taylor done it again?  With help from brendan McCartney 

Geez the tackling and pressure was absolutely fierce that qtr. Willy applied it much more desperately than we did. And got the benefits with lots of forced turnovers.

Hulett is a huge unit.

Glad to hear he can play also.

Well that quarter was dominated by the gulls. Getting killed in the ruck and around the packs.

Not a lot to write home about for the Melbourne players so far. Trenners playing well, track trying hard, Hulett done well to kick 3 & White using it well is about it.

Not out of it yet at 26 points down. But a lot of work to do.

Casey trailing by 26 points at half time. This is real VFL opposition and they'll have to dig deep to get out of this one.

Things are going pretty much as WJ suggested before the game.

Keep your eye on McInerney. Looks pretty capable and isn't far off playing in the firsts. Wont be surprised if he plays tonight.

He started well early but haven't kept an eye out for him since. Big guy and looked ready made for a ruck role. He was similar height and build to Cordy from Willy. Never seen him before. How long have they been hiding him??

A team half full of full-time AFL listed players is losing to a team of part-time VFL listed players?

That team of part time VFL listed players are the reigning premiers.

 

I'll get shot down for a few of these comments, but here goes.

This has been like watching Melbourne in 2014. On the occasional moment you can actually see the play from this ground, it's just utterly frustrating because the performance has been ordinary. Got here at the twenty mark of the first and have seen two Casey goals. One from an impressive Weideman mark.

Grimes is still just as bad at this level and Trenners looks as slow to me as he did before he went down. Can't see Trenners or Petracca getting in next week on this performance, but still a half to go.

Still reckon Trenners' best position at AFL level is half back. Doesn't have the speed for the wing. Not in our current team anyway.

  • 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?
