History of Bernie Vince

Thanks for the tip off Jnr.

Great article.  Not a heap of new info, but all told in Bernie's words.  Huge fan of Bern, he has that great mix of knock about country attitude and not taking himself too seriously, combined with high motivation and intelligence under the surface that have made him such a great acquisition for the club.

Such a great clubman as well.  Saw him on on AFL 360 a few weeks back and they were hinting at his drop of in form and where his career might be heading, to which Bernie basically responded that he just loves playing footy, even if sometime in the future that was just at Casey helping the development of the young guys.  The 360 guys didn't probe further, but I get the impression that Bernie would be happy just to play in a playing mentoring capacity as a Casey/VFL listed player rathere than an AFL one at some point.

He definitely hasn't had the same impact this year as he had previously, but I'm looking forward to seeing what he can produce out on the park for us this week against GWS.  Still an important player for us.

    He tries to a little too much on the field with his dinky kicks to the corridor but overall he is a great asset and a good bloke to boot!

    He isn't the only one guilty of that.  Some of Jordan Lewis's exits from back 50 have resulted in shocking clanger type turnovers.  But for the most part, I think these two guys are pretty reliable kicks and decision makers.  I'm guessing that due to their maturity and implied security in the team they are given and accept the licience to take a few more risks on occasion.  We probably forget the times it comes off, because they start the chain which ends in a goal and it's the final goal and goal assist that gets remembered.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
