Damn Dec screwed up that one

Casey lacking a momentum /possession slow play option and not sticking enough tackles

 

36 minute quarter. 50 metre penalty on the siren... and... goal to Flip.

He wasn't keen on delivering inside fifty there.

First couple of minutes a good example of where the Tigers are great and where the demons lack.

 

First I've seen of Baker. He seems taller than his listing. And heavier looking.


Alice took on one tackle, broke that, ducked his head on the next.  Awful awful decision resulting in a goal

Anyone got a score update? ✌?

47-50 to demons. All Tigers the last 20 minutes tho.

 

And another awful decision....defender being tackled kicks a quick instinctive kick from 50...bounces, wobbles along the wing about 15 meters...goes out.  Deliberate! 

Wow. Not that I'm not grateful that there's a live stream... but the camera couldn't find the ball for about 30 seconds there. And the commentators are getting worse.


Lol....toiges player handballs it to the line....over.  No deliberate!  you have to wonder eh

Tigers hit the front. 54 - 50. Tigers looking a cut above in the clinches in the last 30 minutes.

you would think mfc would put teams up by now 1sts and 2nds but it is of course the mfc,good grief they dont care about the supporters who tip their dollars in every year

Have Richmond named their team?

Getting cut up atm. Overdoing the handball and have lost all forward structure. Playing a lone small out of the goal square. Sound familiar ? 


tigers dominant since the 20 min mark of the first term

hannan and bugg both know how to find the ball; neither has any idea how to use it

both have handballed multiple times directly to the oppo in attacking positions; some really bad decisions by hand and foot

2 Hannam errors cost goal.

Shocking turnover. I wonder if its just that he's not used to playing that far up the ground? or?


Apart from Pedders working for it, our big men do not take enough marks around the ground to provide any relief against the tide and are too easily pushed off the ball.  No physical presence.  No big grabs.

Hannan good early but two turnovers looking to go inside this quarter.  Bugg a horrid one in the first.

Nice work from Munro, Spargo and JKH for the finish there for the goal against the run.

 

It's frustrating knowing what some of these kids can do, but seeing the roles they're being asked to play. Spargo is playing as a target like he's a FF. Baker's being given no opportunity to run. Coach them to their strengths, surely.

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
