VFL FINALS WEEK 2

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Just went to the Collingwood VFL site by chance.

We could perhaps learn a few things from them.

First: Cost of entry is zero for home and away games.

The club run website provides clear and consistent game day reports including quarter by quarter reports

Here's an example:

KC and others do a wonderful job updating us on this site and I like the coaches notes on the MFC listed players.

Small thing and an example of what clubs with money can do

    Uhm the Pies are rolling in money, it is a stand alone side, they play games at a venue you could walk into for free.

    I think you'll find the fixturing reflects a Western Bulldogs / Footscray priority as they are the only club with teams still contending in both competitions (and the WB are playing on Fri night and hence likely to play the following Fri night or Sat if they win through.  A Sat fixturing for Footscray minimises the scheduling / recovery gap differential across their two teams).  With the VFL GF set for Sun, Casey still gets a minimum 7 day break if they make it.  If Melbourne were contending in the AFL finals series as well as Casey, I'm sure we'd want it managed in the same manner.  We must resist the temptation on here of becoming too provincial and paranoid....

    The Bulldogs AFL team will be playing in the Saturday prelim if the make it. They pulled out players from their VFL team on Sunday who were in line for selection next week. 

    I get that I'd be arguing for the opposite if we were still playing in the AFL but I think the VFL should focus on their own comp, and give the Dogs VFL team a 7 day break instead of worrying about the what ifs from the AFL.

    As mentioned already there's no way that they could charge for people to watch them play at the ground they kicked Athletics Australia out of.

    If you want real-time updates on how Casey are doing game day, either get to the ground (entry is free with a Melbourne Membership),

    or follow the Scorps Twitter and/or facebook page for live updates on who's scoring the goals as they happen, and a score/goalscores

    and stats breakdown at each change. 

    You could also tune into Radio 3SER to listen to a lot of the games live.

    Not sure how many more outlets to keep informed you'd like...

    No JJ Liston for Casey.

    After 18 rounds, the best is ANB on just 10 votes and six behind the leader. He played with MFC in VFL Round 19.

    Looks like we better shut down Gibbons, Jolley and Dunell on Sunday

    I have high hopes for ANB when he finally has the chance to play his natural position... hopefully he gets that chance with the Dees.

    Totally agree. Poor bugger plays almost exclusively as a mid in the VFL racking up 30+ possessions a week and then is played as a Death Valley forward in the senior team.

    Im thinking we are yet to see anything near the best of ANB at AFL level.

    ANB gets pushed off the ball/out of position too easily.

    Michie's defensive game is deplorable and is the only thing preventing him from being a regular in the 1s.

    Williamstown's midfield is easily the best in the VFL. Casey are optimistically hoping to break even in clearances on the weekend and will be using third man up as much as possible.

    Apparently.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
