I think we'll need to wait for real opposition before determining the true form of any Melbourne listed players vying for a spot in the 22.

Obvious? Sure.

But I hope posters don't get too excited by numbers etc from this game. 

Agreed. But it's good to see them really put away opposition. I want that ruthless edge in the senior team.

Poster on Bigfooty reporting that Rawlings was having a chat with Brayshaw at the break trying to give him a lift. Said that Gus was playing okay but looking a bit dejected.

Have watched Gus closely at a few VFL games and he always wears a serious face on the bench. A big contrast to say JKH who is full of infectious enthusiasm when on the bench. Not sure there is anything to read into it but I hope Gus does enjoy his footy.

 

Went down the road for a look. It is hard to guage our performances due to the fact that Frankston were shizenhausen.

Brayshaw looked uninterested but played okay.

Frost was good at half back and was short passing the ball alot.

Hannan was average.

Kent good in the second half.

The weed looked good today. Did some ruck work as well.

Baker looked okay but has to learn to control the ball better.

Spargo looks lively but is small.

King looks like he can do a bit in the forward line on top  of rucking.

There wasn't a bad player actually but as i said the opposition were no good.

Did Billy Stretch play or is he in QLD?

Stretch didn't play. Didn't see Maynard as well.

I'm guessing you didn't notice Balic ?

Final score:  Casey 21.18.144  Frankston  5.3.33

Goals:  Kent 4, Weideman 3, Hannan 2, Scott 2, T.Smith 2, Lefau 2, King 2, Brayshaw 1, Kennedy-Harris 1, Filipovic 1, Dwyer 1.

Thought Frost and Kent were outstanding. Brayshaw tried hard and did some sublime things. Petty, Baker & Spargo all showed promise.

nice size too 

He doesn't look that big in the photos's does he, he looks like a well balanced Mid.

I had no idea he is that tall.

 

What i see is a balanced skilled kid, with fierce desire. Elite levels in tests.  And just beginning.  He 's a must.

We don't get that many opportunities like this, I think.

Likewise.

although I’m not sure Bouiji Boy would enjoy John Wayne representing D-evolutionary theory!

i agree. i got those measurements from a newspaper article.

he did get 100cm in the running jump. niknak has the record at 102cm so he must be reasonably tall to do that

How did Johnstone and Keilty go?

Mykelti Lefau seems to be going well - any chance that he could be rookied as a Category B as an international player (born in NZ, I believe).

hope so.

Don’t blame him. Playing at that level is beneath him and a waste of his time. If he was at any other AFL club he’d be getting a game this weekend. Unfortunately he is at Melbourne and the selection panel here has proven to make repeated mistakes and ruin development of elite young talent. 

Hopefully he cracks the senior side soon and never has to look back.

Name a young player we’ve ruined by playing in the 2’s for too long in the last decade? Always the opposite.

At training Gus has shown flashes of good Footy but has always regularly made bad turnovers and hasnt shown a lot of zip. He’s missed a lot of games with injuries the last two years. A couple of weeks or even a month or so in the twos won’t hurt him

Same thing occured to me DA. I also wonder if he thinks he is a lot better than he is.

Is there a player remotely close to the fringe that 1) you like? 2) you want to do well?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
