3QT: Casey Demons 6.8.44 lead Collingwood 4.3.27

Goals Bugg 2 Lewis Lok Scott J Wagner

Disposals Tyson 28 Bugg Kennedy Harris 26 Baker 18

The Demons dominated the quarter but couldn’t hit the scoreboard as they lacked the marking power up forward to take advantage of the many moves inside 50.

Both Baker and Petty will play 1s this year. Both look really good

petty will, bakers disposal and decision making is very questionable . Will need more time .

strange ...until the last week or so Oskar has been marginally ahead of Petty.

They will certainly get a chance... maybe not this season ... wonderful if we have time to get that extra development into them.

 


Baker has great potential, but right now he is a Hunt clone.

Must add some strings to his bow.. and Hunt needs to do the same.

Weideman a huge disappointment ... . hes been invisible.

Petty looks real solid. Will be best 22 next year. Excellent presence.

Weideman no presence

Pretty hard when the service to him has been this abysmal 


Goal from jkh after a great pass from Frost. Pretty close to big today Kennedy-Harris his field kicking has been superb hes taken risks by foot all day that have opened up the play

Weideman is a real worry.. barely touched it. Hes st an age now where he should be dominating VFL level now.

Gee, Rawlings is impressive- wouldn’t mind betting he gets a senior gig one day. Great to see Casey play the same high pressure contested footy as our firsts. Everyone is singing from the same songbook at last.

Guy Lok robbed of a beautiful goal a few minutes ago.

Have to agree considering the promise he showed earlier in the season.


petty has controlled that back half

and when weed is clunking those sorts of marks you can't help but watch the kid and think 'add 10km of muscle please' - he has agility and the basic traits of a key forward, but he's undersized and only 20 years old...will be a player

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
