Port Melbourne v Casey Demons


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Earlier this season, the Casey Demons scored a shock win at home over the then ladder leaders Port Melbourne. Can they do it again at the home of the Burra on Saturday afternoon?

With the AFL squad missing 10 players, Casey will be fielding lots of youngsters. A big upset if they can topple Port at Port.

At least, with the Seniors playing the night before, would presumably mean ALL the emergencies for the senior game will be able to have a run with Casey...!

They got the top of the table Hawks last week and while Salem and Garlett are out of the seniors J.Smith is back and we'll also have the carry over player from last week, so essentially no loss of senior guys (in numbers). 

I've been really impressed with the way the guys who've been dropped down to Casey this year have performed when they've come back into the senior side. The term "shuffling the deck chairs" was used a lot on here in the past, but guys like ANB, Melksham, Harmes and OMac have gone back then performed well and come back better into the senior side.

Considering the injuries, Casey only lose White from last week (as Wagner went to Perth) and gain Smith which pretty much cancels it out. Still a strong looking VFL side I reckon. Really hope Weid, JKH, Kennedy and Kent can pick up where they left off and continue putting upward pressure on the seniors.

Hoges for a half at Casey?

Won't happen but there is some sense in it

I agree, some game time in the VFL for Hogan would be good . His first and best year, came off him rag dolling defenders in the VFL. It might give him added confidence and get his 'eye in" for the game against Carlton next week.

Well ... it's a bit chilly but the sun is out.

Nice day to head to the Port Oval perhaps via the trendy South Melbourne market.

Never before have the Casey AFL players had more reason to play well and display their wares.

Places are going begging in the senior team for next week and if you play well against Carlton then you will get at least two to three more games.

I would not have thought it two or three weeks ago but with a good game the Weed is a chance for next week along with the usual suspects. Hell... even Trenners is in the mix

See you there guys and gals

PS I see that Maynard and J Smith are both rookies according to our list. Do we have enough long term injuries (horrible thing to say) to activate those two if they star?

If the 3 not-so-special K's were left out last night for disciplinary reasons, they owe their teammates and supporters big time. 

One or all could have made a difference last night.  Being fresh they could have helped us stay in touch and added some spark and energy in the middle and up forward. 

Top game expected from all three today.  Don't want to see any of them getting undeserved senior games because we have no one else to choose from.

Kennedy, Kent and Kennedy-Harris - its time to stand up!

BIG DAY FOR 

Kent, Ben Ken, Weeds, J Smith, Trengove, JKH, and Spencer!

:blink:

Agreed.  Spots up for grabs in the side for sure.  These boys should be very hungry - especially Kent, BenKen and JKH.  I think they owe the team more than the rest.

I'd add Maynard to the list too.

Kent named in the BP is telling, chase you bastard!

The only thing it "tells" is that the spots in the VFL sides are listed pretty much at random.  He won't play there.

Yes and No, the thought must have entered someones mind. It is what it is and I have no issue with him playing there, would be good for him and his attitude.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
