Coburg Lions v Casey Scorpions - VFL Round 1

[Miracle 89]

I must be watching different game to Martin. Hunt has been disappointing. 

Pedo taking a lot of one grab marks and using bulk. Weird and smith both good forward. Gus has been fantastic, I was critical last week but this week our best midfielder.

Gus worked into the game in the latter part of the second quarter but I don’t think he has been the best mid. He’s getting held and scragged a lot though.

Baker with 14 touches is he giving a lot of run and carry?

Old dee when weideman is in the ruck is he holding his ground well and he had a limited pre season does it look like hes blowing out at the end of the half?

Just spoke to the bloke who is supposed to be calling the game for Casey FM (They thought they might go live in the second half but are still not operational) He was very impressed with Baker.

We are lucky in this country.

By co incidence found myself sitting next to a few players and their families.

No one bothers them. Great to see

Best at halftime: Weideman, Hunt,Stretch,Hannan, T Smith, Pedo, JKH, Keilty. Brayshaw more closely attended than any other player. Doing a lot of good work in close.

No love for Oskar Baker who has had 14 touches?

Hunt has been good, not great. Still too good for this. I am a huge Brayshaw  fan am bitterly disappointed hes out of the team.Working into it under heavy duress but to say he has been 'fantastic' is fanciful. I hope he is by game's end.

Ah no.... Just posting what is happening about 10 metres in front of me

Weideman is apparently rucking well, has kicked 4 and given one off to Balic, but you say he has "no physical presence".  At the same time you pump up a bloke you want in the team.  A 30 year old who should be doing OK at this level, but offers next to nothing as a key forward at AFL level.

[KC from Casey 7,063]

JKH gets the ball rolling for Casey with his first major (from 65 metres mind you) after Coburg kicks the first goal of the half.

In the best 3.

[KC from Casey 7,063]

And JKH has a second goal - 95 to 33.

[KC from Casey 7,063]

Tim Smith takes a speccie in the goal square and gets his second.

The ton has been reached. 101 - 33

[Diamond_Jim 12,568]

Casey radio truck still well and truly stuck.

First effort to pull it out failed

[Diamond_Jim 12,568]

Hunt steps over the line while kicking out. Goal to Coburg from the ball up

[Diamond_Jim 12,568]

The radio truck is free and another end to end goal from the demons

[KC from Casey 7,063]

Angus Brayshaw atones for Hunt's mistake and replies immediately.

Which end is the radio truck though?

[martin 727]

Baker very good!

[layzie 33,793]

What’s happening with Hunt? Is he looking ok at all?
