CASEY SCORPIONS v WERRIBEE


KC from Casey

We have a fair bit of depth and we have basically played 16 AFL players every week. If you think about it, today we have 6 first round draft picks playing in Treners, Grimes, Salem, Dawes, Dunn, Kennedy. You dont really see that at VFL level week in week out. Plus in other weeks we've had Oliver, Brayshaw, and Weiderman. 

Dawes and Kennedy weren't first rounders were they?

Late goals to debutants Aloysio Ferreira and the Time Lord, Tom Baker (x2) see Casey stream home by 105 points!

Baker replaced Tim Smith, a late injury withdrawal before the match.

Casey Scorpions 5.8.38 9.16.70 16.20.116 21.25.151

Werribee Tigers 4.1.25 5.4.34 6.4.40 7.4.46

Goals 

Casey Scorpions Baker Dawes Kennedy-Harris  3 Neal-Bullen Salem White 2 Ferreira Grimes Kennedy Munro Spencer Trengove

Werribee Durdin McKay Mountford 2 Jacobs 

Best 

Casey Scorpions Trengove Michie Grimes M Jones Kennedy-Harris Neal-Bullen

Werribee Hanson Gribble McFarlane Tippett Nielson Hibberd

Disposals M Jones 42 Grimes 41 Neal-Bullen 37 Michie 35 Trengove 30 White 29 Kennedy 27 Kennedy-Harris 26

Williamstown's loss today to Footscray means that the Scorpions and Collingwood VFL fill the top two spots with the Seagulls a game behind and a bye coming up which will make it hard for them to get a home game in the first week of the finals.

BenKen was 19 (I think that was still in the first round that year) and Dawes was 28 (my bad). Although didnt we give up a 1st rounder for him? Anywho, main point was that we have a fair bit of VFL talent.

Few players there who aren't knocking on the door, they are smashing it down.

It's going to be hard telling some of them that they're not getting promoted, on the other hand it will be hard telling someone in the one's that they are going back to Casey.

Really hope JKH and Salem continue to finish the year off strongly.

A comprehensive win by the Scorps.

 

Just as happy to also see Trengove and Kennedy finish the year off strongly as well (plus ANB)! We might need a bit of depth if we manage to make it to the finals.

Commentator has mentioned that JKH has been offered a three year contract by Carlton.

Jeez, this one comment set this thread off.  Who was it, what was their source, and how do we know it is even accurate?

many here are already trying to map out the trade.  Perhaps, if likely, it needs its own thread?

loving the pressure that success at both levels is creating on players.  Creating the habit of winning, building something special for Casey and Melbourne.  Go Scorps, Go Dees!

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
