Just a heads up, Keilty's carrying a decent head cold. The Docs at the club gave him some good drugs but don't expect him to come out flying today

I bets the Essendon docs (and others) could get him up.

Great but let him work at VFL for quite a while more to gain both confidence and hunger.

What a kick by JKH.

You won't get a job as a commentator on radio, Clint!  "Please explain..."!!

Game over. Good but cold day out in Box Hill. Win has made it worthwhile.

A skinny but creative medium forward, a bit like Hannan (from the little I have seen) with good hands.

Kicked into the forward 50 over a few Box Hill players and into the arms of Scott who didn't have to break stride while running back with the flight of the ball. Scott marked 20 metres out directly in front and kicked the goal.

That's more like it, Clint!  You might just get the job!  LOL

Great win Casey!  And Weid leads the boys up the race.

Looks like Jane plays like Tarzan.


Got to go into the rooms for the song, the boys were absolutely up and about!!! All getting around Sammy too

What a win!

Now for the seniors to finish it off tonight and make this one helluva day for the MFC!!!

Brilliant hardworking high possession games by JKH , Kent and Kennedy, look like they really want it. Weideman is back and how, with six goals.

Trengove went ok but has definitely lost that zip he had in his early years, can't see him ever getting a senior game with the depth we have nowadays least 5 or 6 players ahead of him.

Loved watching our Ressies in the demon jumper - something so simple as wearing the same jumper as the Seniors makes the alliance much more tangible.

Well I hope he is asked to put in quite a few more before he gays a senior recall.

well blow me down, i would never have guessed

 

Fritsch has reminds me of a young Buckenara. 

Woul be happy to use a 4th rounder/pick in the 60's on him this year. 

A few of my observations from watching on TV.

JKH very impressive, but he's got a few ahead of him in the first 22 playing that role. He needs an AFL level second string to his bow because he won't push out Oliver, Viney, Jones etc.

Maynard is great physically and for clearances, but unless that was a particularly bad day his disposal is way below AFL standard and will need rectification. He makes vandenBerg's disposal look classy.

White and Trengove both excellent skills and decision making at this level (although I thought Trengove was injured he was so quiet in the third quarter) but I don't know they have the physical traits for AFL. Or at least not for Goodwin's game plan.

Weideman wasn't so much the 6 goals that were great, but his straight kicking and aggression in the air that impressed and is clearly AFL level for mine.

Spencer very fumbly, is out of form.

Hulett, I just don't see what he could be at AFL level unfortunately.

Kennedy as usual very effective, but not dissimilar to JKH in he won't push out the genuine midfielders for Melbourne, so what's his other position at AFL level?

Kent was solid as a midfielder. Unlike JKH and Kennedy, he definitely has the traits as he's proved before to play AFL level Other than midfield. Definitely above the shoulders for him.

Johnstone doesn't get much of the ball, but his work off the ball looks good.

Kielty I think could be stuck in between sizes and positions for AFL. Seems to have solid judgement though.

King obviously still getting back into the swing of things.

I wouldn't be surprised to see trade time interest in JKH and White in particular if another team can put them in genuine midfield and half back flank spots respectively. Kent as well if he is on the outer.

I also agree with others the Fritsch will get an AFL chance. Has class and poise and with a bit of physical development could be a Tory Dickson style player.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
