KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Great long centre clearance kick by Trac and ends in a Hulett 4th goal. Beautiful. Trac decided it was time to impose himself in the centre.

    So now... Trengove is having a big impact on the contest from stoppages and Petracca looks dangerous. Finally starting to impose themselves.

    And proof you shouldn't make wild judgments after seeing just a quarter of footy.

    After much confusion in the box Casey radio informs us Sam Weideman is the son of Mark and grandson of Murray with the comment "you heard it here first"

    I'm assuming these are the same guys who thought that Mitch and Max King were the same person, except with a name change?

    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.

    "Grimes is still just as bad at this level and Trenners looks as slow as he did before he went down."

    And " Can't see Trenners or Petracca getting in next week on this performance"

    Oh really, OK Petracca's comeback might need to be stalled a bit more till he hits form!!

    Given the way this farce has now played out in putting him in the emergencies, will comeback and bite the selectors on the Bum!

    If he hasn't got form then lets ar, eh, wait another 3-4 weeks till he's ready!! 

    What utter TOSH!

    That's enough for me, Grimes and Trengove both Surplus to needs unless many get injured! 

    Onwards and Upwards!

    So apart for a five minute burst at the start of the quarter we've barely touched it. I stand by my original post.

    Well, really not much to like about that qtr for Scorps. Willy picked up the pressure from late in the first qtr and haven't let off since. They apply very strong pressure ALL the time. Their marking is strong, kicks accurate and decisive and set shots at goal mostly dead centre through the middle from most angles.  We have so much trouble clearing it out of our backline that the second or third in a chain of attempted clearance possessions often was a turnover.

    FANTASTIC!!!!!

    Seeing as though you're crtitical of AF's analysis, why don't you tell us how those 25 possessions would stand up at AFL level?

    As stated - seeing it's his 2nd game in 2 years one would expect that part of his game would improve considerably with game time.  As the youngest ever appointed AFL captain I think he has proven his credentials at the highest level. We will see him in the seniors by June.

    Not if hes lost his pace and is too slow we won't!!

    Sam Weideman takes a nice mark and slots it through for his second but the game is well and truly over. Margin is 44 points.

    All of this talk about Trengove's supposed lack of pace is a load of hogwash. He was slow two years ago when hobbled by his foot injury but he has definitely picked up in the area even though you still wouldn't call him quick. However, he's aerobically very strong and that is where he can press home his advantage.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • 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.
