Sting going out of the game and Coburg getting a couple of junk time goals. Scorps lead by 72 points.

Thanks KC

When Clayton Oliver works out how to get a few cheap kicks....

He's been more than good again today, does so much work in close.

I just re-read it and it looked like I could have been talking about Garland. But yes I did mean the ump.

Go Scorps.

Oliver and Kennedy should be back next week. When you think that an unconditioned Oliver was averaging 15 touches at this level last year and is now getting 35+, the sky really is the limit for him. He tackles to hurt too. Kennedy is far too good for VFL and (contrary to others' opinions) I think he has proven himself to be a useful AFL player.

Weideman is skinny, raw and a touch on the slow side, but was impressive. I wish Hogan adopted his set shot approach, so fluent!

Thanks KC, love your work.

Clarry has to come back in now. He's way too good for VFL and his development needs AFL matches now.

Grimes is making it hard for the selectors to ignore him.  Would love to know his disposal average over the last 6 Casey games.

 

Trenners is also putting his case forward.

Agree Dante.

If Grimes  cannot get a game 39 disposals then why should Kennedy?

I think there has to be one eye kept on the future. For mine Grimes represents our recent history and will be walked at the end of the season, he's not the future. At the same time I don't think Kennedy should get a game either. He has the tricks and will be a player for us, but the one thing lacking with him is consistency. He needs to string them together at Casey before he gets another crack.

Not a big Terlich fan, but he gee he has really done well as a forward, hasn't he.

New contract next year, yeah, nah.

Kennedy is your classic too good for VFL not good enough for AFL.

And to top it off he is too short.

You guys are so biased towards Grimes. The bloke has had 100 games to prove his worth, and honestly he hasn't shown what it takes to be valuable to the team in the modern game.

Kennedy has 70 odd less games and 4 years on him.

Too short?  Please.  That's a weak argument.

He is younger than Grimes and has plenty of scope for improvement in him.  We know what we're going to get with Grimes.  Big difference.

Sorry for having an opinion.  I always thought that the whole concept was, show the form, get a game, I like Kennedy but you can't say he is consistent, that said i'd play him next week on his VFL form, he seems to play well in his first game back.

Height isn't the issue.

It is if you are not very good.

If you are short you need to be very good at AFL to make it.

He is not very good.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
