Dawes' goal puts Casey 31 in front.

Has the breeze dropped off KC, or are Scorps playing smarter / better?

If the breeze is still blowing the last quarter will be interesting.

    Based on Scorps twitter feed, Dawes seems to be heavily involved. Can anyone there confirm?

    A big turnover near the end of the 3rd quarter and Sandy scores a goall and then closely followed by another one to them.  Still a great quarter by Casey. Up by around 3 goals. Dawes working really hard that quarter in front of Melb coaches (minus Roos). Trenners and ANB continue to shine.

    Sandy 13-6-84 to Casey 15-12-102

    That is the 3/4 time score - 

    Casey Scorpions 14.18.102 to Sandringham 13.6.84

    Goals Munro T Smith 3 Morris 2 Briggs Dawes Hulett Neal-Bullen Pattison Trengove

    Disposals Neal-Bullen 30 Trengove 22 Dunn Newton 21 Munro 17

    It will be hard to ignore ANB at selection next week. Fair games from Lynden Dunn and Jack Trengove who could not be far away. Mitch White is strong in defence.

    Of the Casey listed players James Munro and skipper Hutchins doing very well.

    Hullett also done some nice things today.

    we are building some real kpp depth 

    Can you tell us much about Huletts game? Nobody ever seems to talk about him.

     

    "He is sound in front of goal and the Demons see him
    developing into a third tall forward." From MFC website.

    3rd tall like Watts? I thought he was more of a crash and bash type?

    Serious concerns re Brayshaw.

     

    Give Brayshaw 4-6 weeks off. If he returns this year, give him some headgear to play with.

    ding, I had a chat to Jason Taylor about Hulett during the pre season, did post it, he missed the last year of junior footy with injury but we had been tracking for a couple of years, and saw enough in the couple of games he played to draft him

    Seriously big guy, they expected him to take a while as he hadn't played against men, but also again making sure we don't break him.

    Spoke to a couple of coaches in recent weeks, he is exactly where they thought he would be once he settled into playing VFL and is improving every week, again being a forward, for the modern game, he has to cover all the things that the Weed needs to as well, but they are pleased with his progress

    Disposals - Neal-Bullen 30, Trengove 22, Dunn 21, Newton 21, Munro 17.

    Goals - Munro, T. Smith 3, Morris 2, Briggs, Dawes, Hulett, Neal-Bullen, Pattison, Spencer, Trengove

    Surely Neal-Bullen gets a game soon. Surely.

    The head gear helps protect against cuts and bone fractures but not concussion, which is more about the brain being banged around (for want of a better phrase) inside the head from sudden impact. As others have mentioned on another thread, the head gear can sometimes have the effect of giving the wearer a false sense of security and propensity to take greater risks.

    Exactly what Nev Jetta was told last year when he had the same issue, the only 'cure' is 4 - 6 weeks of keeping your head away from contact

    No dos respect intended but I thought the prerequisite to be a runner is that you have to able to run. The Casey runner cannot run 

    in in any case King misses a sitter.  Still 27 pts in favour of casey

    And all this INTO a four goal wind? Really?

    • 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?
