VFL GRAND FINAL - CASEY SCORPIONS v FOOTSCRAY BULLDOGS

[boydie 655]

Key forwards are handy, but both this VFL side and their senior side show why its far more important to have midfielders that run both ways.

If you can win the ball and move it quickly you'll get scoring shots rather slow movement and bombing to a key forward thats got 3 players on him.

Jong is far more than just a VFL standard player. To come back from a broken collarbone and to play the game he is playing, setting up most of the Dogs' attack ( and will likely play in next week's GF)...the Dees should be taking a serious look at him.

Spencer and big Oscar haven't fired a shot

[Phadraig 760]

Holding the ball? Wtf

[Lord Travis 10,685]

8 Casey players yet to touch the ball in the 3rd quarter after 20 minutes! Pathetic work rate!

[Demon Jack 6,850]

Could someone man up on Lin Jong please?

[Clintosaurus 7,808]

Umpires are a joke.

[dazzledavey36 54,110]

Grimes is horrifically bad

[Call Me What You Will 751]

Ah the romance of it all - the football world love the doggies, but particularly the commentators and the yellow clowns in control - nauseating.....

interesting but true

It also helps when you have 13 plus games indoors (Docklands) where speed is the key

Sorry to say it, but Plapp is not a good coach in this situation.

Nees Terlich on Russell, not the Casey player. Russell is killing us, and he's really not that good.

[chook fowler 19,432]

I am completely over Grimes - another hospital hand pass causing a turnover. Pathetic 

[KC from Casey 7,057]

Scorps trail by 27 points at the 21 minute mark. Are being out pointed all over the ground.

I been saying that for a while, he is carving us up. 

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

Doggies have run em ragged....game has probably gone

[Clintosaurus 7,808]

How is that shepherding rubbish allowed?

Who was the commentator with that 'what a footy club' BS?

[Webber 10,452]

What a horribly gutless way to play a third quarter in a Grand Final. The Scorps showed too often during the season that they're frontrunners and so it comes to pass now. Woeful stuff when the big prize is there. 

[Gorgoroth 12,911]

Casey have truly joined with Melbourne. Turn to poo when at Etihad.

[Lord Travis 10,685]

Umpires definitely favoring the Dogs, but the Dogs are also just playing much better. We're lucky to only be 6 goals down thanks to their inaccuracy. Very disappointing!

[KC from Casey 7,057]

Now by 33 points. You would think theres a 6 goal wind but the roof's actually shut.

[Ted Lasso 19,191]

1 team wants to win, the other likes the idea of winning, and the difference is obvious, this is sooooo dissapointing, a team that has two AFL co captains in it should not lack effort in a grand final.

[Jaded No More 68,855]

Apart from Oliver, Weids and Hullet, every Melbourne listed player out there should get the cut on Monday. Seriously [censored] poor!

And there goes the Cup

[WattsUp2312 63]

Apart from Oliver the rest of that Casey team is not up to AFL standard. 

Matt Jones and Ben Kennedy have been a disgrace really

[Clintosaurus 7,808]

Sturt are in front so the day may not be completely lost.
