VFL GRAND FINAL - CASEY SCORPIONS v FOOTSCRAY BULLDOGS


spirit of norm smith

Recommended Posts

Tim Smith deserves a go on an afl list. I know he's the wrong side of 25, but he's a really good third tall forward.

 

Oliver, Ben Ken, and Terlich all really solid I thought, unfortunately ANB, Grimes and Matt Jones can get it but their skills are not good enough, and Weideman and Hullet look like genuine prospects.

Sterling commentary from Campbell Brown a second ago: "well, Dunn is the spare man for Casey, and it looks like Russell is doing the same for Footscray down the other end..."

Thanks mate, really insightful.

I want Rhys- Jones back

Looking to our future, not much to get excited about other than Oliver, Weid and J. Smith. Plenty of effort and good tackling by the rest, but poor disposal and no speed is the reason why most are playing at Casey.

Not much to get excited about for the future?

Righto then.

Oliver is something else. Will be the best player of all our current players I reckon. 

Like the look of Joel Smith. 

The Weed having a good game. Will be a gun, no worries there. 

Ferreira looks worth a punt.

I'd even take PHIL Cleary ahead of him

Without question. In fact, there's very few people I wouldn't have ahead of Thug Life. Sheet, I'd rather listen to Kevin Rudd.

That's enough. Huelet looks alright as well and Salem is in the wings

Add Huelett he should have 3 goals.

Our skill is terrible. 

Grimes has turned it over at least 6 times. 

They seem to get the ball in the contest and then spread. We just turn it over when we have it. 

ANB is like a headless chook. Does some absolutely stupid things with the ball. 

We need to lift and get some clean disposal happening.

You're right. Pretty pathetic of this unexciting mob of youngsters who've made the VFL Grand Final and have the lead at half time, against the seconds team of this year's Grand Finalists.

So who else can you see taking it to the next level? 

Brayshaw, Petracca, Salem etc? Most of our young talent is already in the seniors.

I suppose you mean in the context of those playing in this game, although I didn't read it that way.

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.
