Was Salem reported by the umpire?

Was Salem playing as desired by the coach with more intensity? Perhaps out to show these lesser players at reserves level that he is tougher than them? Perhaps he merely applied AFL intensity to this game? Was this merely a tragic error of time space location?

    Jeez we're quick to hang our own players on here.  

    Salem does things on the field that not many players in our side can do.  Importantly he can hit a target.  

    Sounds like he's made a mistake today, but for god sake now he should be traded.

    unbelievable.

    Sounds like that might have been a problem today.

    Probably not, he was good without being great

    Did he play with any desperation?

    Blues really cost themselves percentage with their accuracy.

    Great to see the win, great reports on mfc players aside from the Salem hit.

    Stretch and BenKen keep knocking on the door.

    Best game I've seen from Keilty, looks like just what Melbourne needs down back.

    Anyone know stats for the amount of games we have had a player suspended this year? Last year we only had a total of three weeks of player suspensions.

     

    this year I reckon we are pushing a total of 20 weeks

    That has not stopped Weideman from getting a game D167.

    I'm looking forward to reading Plappy's report. That's normally a good indication. Would think he'd need at least 2 weeks though.

    Watts not in our best, at VFL level.

    Bug's act of stupidity is going to give this more fat than what you are chasing deserves.

    For me, the thing about suspensions is not necessarily the quantity of weeks, but the quality of the personnel doing it, the quality of the impact that caused the suspension, which then leads to the outcome of the game the incident happened in.

    For example, the Bugg suspension ticked 2 out of 3 boxes for me.  It was a lesser quality player that did it, he totally wiped out one of their key playmakers out of the game, but we lost.  Had we won, it was the perfect suspension in my eyes.

    I know that will be controversial to some.  I don't really care.

    On any level it was a stupid act.

    He deserved every week he got. I have seldom seen that benefit the offenders team.

    "I felt that he played a strong role in creating aerial contests for us to bring our ground level players into play. In the last quarter, when we needed players to stand-up and compete, he took two strong contested marks and kicked a goal. He also set up another goal. When we needed him the most on the weekend, he was there. It was great to see the young man influence the game in the last quarter."

    etc. etc.

    From the VFL website-

    CASEY DEMONS
    Goal Kickers: B. Fritsch 4, Y. Zijai 3, B. Kennedy 3, L. Hulett, C. Salem, E. Morris, A. Ferreira, C. Porter, J. Kennedy-Harris, J. Watts
    Best Players: D. Keilty, B. Kennedy, J. Trengove, C. Salem, B. Stretch, Y. Zijai
     
    Was a great day out. I sat next to Sam Frost for half the game in the grandstands, and we had a good chat about him, Dec, and a few of the other boys who were playing (Salem, Kenno, Watts) Was pretty awesome.
     
    Keilty is in AFL form, his last 2 months have been sensational. Last week and today were the 2 best game's I've ever seen him play. Being in the business end of the season, I doubt he'll get a debut, but keep an eye on him over preseason, and he might just become a great player for the Melbourne Footy Club.

    Technically if they lose the next 2 and Werribee win the next 2 by big margins, they could drop to 9th, but Casey percentage is good enough and the next 2 games are at home where they haven't been beaten in over 18 months so they should be right.

    Thanks KC and all other posters another great win to Casey, sorry to hear Salem will probably miss a few games as looks like he played a fair game. Go Casey, Go Dee's!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Quote

    Keilty BOG after a run of a month being named in the best players.

    Hes going to debut at some stage, but will he run out of time this season?  I wouldnt put it past Goody to debut him in an Elimination final if we got there

    Anyway, great to see his development

    With all the problems we have had with suspensions at AFL level, Salem goes and whacks someone in the VFL and knocks them out.

    Trade him.   We dont need this sort of idiocy at the club when we need all players available at this crucial time.

     

    So trade him because he whacked someone? Should trade you to demonology for being a weak fickle 'supporter'

    Mark Yeates' hit in 1989 was nearly a masterstroke.  Can't remember if he get weeks for it, but it nearly got the desired result.

    While I do not endorse what Bugg did, if the right opportunity, and the right moment, during the right game presented itself, providing it lead to the right result, I'd accept it.

    I have to admit I am very surprised by all of the Salem talk on this thread, I didn't see him get reported and the incident where Sumner was injured I thought wasn't even a free kick at the time. You don't have replays and I didn't have the best angle but I think he will be fine from my view, just a very solid bump..

    On the rest of the game, Casey dominated the contest in the first half over a very poor blues team.  I was fairly disappointed with the second half thou,  they stopped and limped over the line with the Blues dominating the contested ball.  Luckily for Casey the Blues were very wasteful at goal and Declan Kielty was on fire as the final margin should have been a lot closer.  

    Watts didn't do enough from my view, another week in the VFL.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
