VFL FINALS WEEK 2

Featured Replies

Posted

Things are a little more low key this week at the Casey Scorpions following last week's ground-breaking 70 point win over Footscray in the First Qualifying Final. 

The win gives the seniors a week's break and they will be back in Preliminary Final action against the winner of the Williamstown v Sandringham Semi Final at North Port Oval on Saturday.

That game will be the curtain raiser for the weekend's big game - the Development League Preliminary Final between the Casey Scorpions and Williamstown.

One man who will not be taking part in the Preliminary Final is Melbourne's forgotten man Dean Terlich who was suspended for one match following the Qualifying Final win. The Scorpions have a few handy players likely to come in to replace him - Christian Salem, Jay Kennedy-Harris and rookie Joel Smith all missed last week's game.

The focus will turn to the JJ Liston Trophy on Monday night where Viv Michie, Alex Neal-Bullen and Jack Grimes have all been mentioned as potential winners. Problem is that they may all have taken away too many votes individually thereby preventing one of them from winning. 

Casey's Declan Keilty is one of the favourites for the Fothergill-Round Medal for the most promising young talent in the competition. 

KC can you confirm Terlich only got 1 game? I understand he got an extra game due to poor record, but does that mean he was originally found guilty but got 0 weeks?

It said one game in the tribunal report.

Would have gotten a reprimand but his record got him a game off.

Do you know what time it starts KC ?, hopefully it will be streamed on the VFL website

Thanks Samael, that's what I was looking for. 

Id read one game. And i'd read, an extra game due to bad record.  But i hadn't seen anywhere say, reprimand plus one game for the bad record, and just wanted to clarify. 

 

I'm by no means a massive Terlich fan but I reckon he has been hard done by at melbourne these past two years.  I can't believe that he has been the only player undeserving of a call up in that time. I'm sure there are issues, in all, performance and personality, but it just seems a bit odd. 

As a result, I hope we get to send him off with a win in the premiership.  It would cap a career where he has gotten the most out of his limitations.

Can anyone confirm which day we play? The Sat or Sunday?

Scorpions look like playing the Seagulls in the Seniors Preliminary Final. They have a comfortable lead over Sandringham in their semi final.

It's been a sluggish start for the Development League boys with the Seagulls on top for most of the term.

The game has ebbed and flowed with Casey leading by 15 points at one stage but Williamstown kicked the last three goals of the quarter to lead by 3 points at the final break 76 - 73.

Seems there are two close games on today. One in Sydney between GWS and the Swans and the other in the VFL Development League.

Yep. Scores level with both sides on 91 but Casey the more accurate with 14.7.91 to Williamstown 13.13.91.

    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.

    Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    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?
