CASEY SCORPIONS v PORT MELBOURNE


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Sounds good

 

Looking forward to the summation by those who were there, and their thoughts on who may have earned a promotion.

You said worst over the last four weeks. He may well have been our worst yesterday but I don't want us dropping match-winners after one bad game.

He was bad yesterday but he has enough credits in the bank to hold his spot.

Easily the worst (still in the side) in terms of averages/output in the last 4 weeks Titan. If he performed reasonably   yesterday i would agree with you. 4 in a row with a horror 4th game in there... Ben Ken time!!! :P

I know they are getting done today but West Coast plays Darling and Kennedy up front, both genuine tall forwards. I want to see Hulett or Weideman both given a chance to be that second genuine forward over the course of the year in the ones.

No.

Harmes has looked spent the last couple of weeks. 

Ben Ken for Harmes is a much smarter decision.

I honestly wouldn't make too many changes from the side that played yesterday... Agree that Jeffy, Kent, Harmes and Oscar have not been great but with Dunn going down today I think we make 1 change only... BenKen for Kent unless injuries force other changes...

OMac needs to keep playing and is less of a liability than Olaf imho

Both Harmes and Kent were abysmal last week.

Kent improved slightly yesterday, Harmes did not. 

Harmes goes first.

If it's wet next week then I'd be happy to keep Kent and rest Harmes for BenKen

Why if wet?

Because I think Harmes loses his effectiveness with a slippery pill... Whereas Kent tackles more effectively with precipitation in the vicinity ?

Fair enough.

IMO, Harmes' disposal has been atrocious whether wet or dry. It was no better vs Port last week in the sun than vs Hawthorn. He turns the ball over almost every time he touches it, at the moment.

I think that we can all agree that on today's form and given our opponent next week, we will be seeing BenKen ready to make a statement on QBD... Who misses is anyone's guess

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
