I’m going in early to save the site some controversy.

The Casey Demons take on Coburg for the second time this year. Earlier in the season, the Lions were thrashed and the Casey Radio truck got bogged, leaving their loyal listeners bereft of their scintillating commentary.

Be interesting to see if the travelling emergencies make it back for this game.

Weather prediction is 14 degrees, light winds and 2mm of rain... classic football weather.

It might sound strange but the traveling emergencies are not required once the game starts so they can fly back on Friday night and be rested for the game the next day.

 

I feel sorry for Coburg who are a very ordinary team playing 2nd place Casey who are a very strong team on paper.

This will be a slaughter I'm predicting the Dees to win by 150 points.

My Preferred Team

B: Frost, Hutchins, Johnstone

HB: J.Wagner, Keilty, Lockhart

C : Hannan, Stretch, Baker

HF: Balic, T.Smith, Bugg

F: Spargo, Pedersen, Weideman

FOLL: King, C.Wagner, Kennedy Harris

IC: Filipovic, Scott, Munro, Lok, Quigley

The 23rd man will probably change and Corey Wagner won player of the week for the second week in a row.

If the 23rd man changes then Quigley doesn’t play.

yep but with the game starting at 7:20pm local time it's either a late night or early morning flight.

The last flight on qantas appears to be 8pm so that's a hard ask.

As a very frequent traveller to the city of churches it's not blessed by the airlines like the east coast cities

It seems a tight time frame. If Garlett and Stretch don’t get selected for Friday night surely the club leaves them behind to play at Casey. If those two are the held over emergencies it would make it nearly a month without a game for both.

The club needs to get a bit smarter at this. Obviously you want your best players available for the senior side if possible, but it is pretty dumb to have players 23-25 on your list not playing games for multiple weeks.

Having Tyson miss a week after being dropped surely set him back a fair way, and since then we have had Garlett, Pedersen and Hunt miss games whilst on the cusp of senior selection.

Given how rarely you need to call on your 23rd player, I'd rather hold over a player further down the depth chart (Bugg, Wagner, Stretch, etc) and keep the better players playing regularly.

What happens with games like this is that say Stretch and Garlett do the warm up with the boys in Adelaide and as soon as the game starts they are off to the airport and usually land before the game ends so they are ready to play on the Saturday. The issues lie when the game is on at the same time / the day after Casey. 

Agree that we do need to get more game time into some of these boys who havent played for a while.

That's until we get an injury in the warm up and have to bring in someone not up to the job and we bemoan the fact someone of decent quality wasn't on standby.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Hannan stays in the seniors, Tim.Smith in the seniors as well, Petty and Garlett stay at Casey.

Stockdale is 23rd man

Filipovic isn't playing maybe Gent comes in for him. 

Casey at home with a very strong lineup, 100+ point victory guaranteed.


Fired up to get over-excited about player performances against a glorified suburban team.

All eyes on Casey today. Plenty of spots open in the seniors after the last two  losses.  

Hoping for huge games from Garlett, Petty , Weideman and Spargo.   Would gladly have all 4 in vs the Saints if they dominate today.

I'm looking forward to this one to help me forget about last night and see who steps up to get a spot in the seniors.

Go Casey!


Go down and take a look. Be interested to see how the weed plays as well as Garlett, Spargo and Wagner.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
