Casey Demons v Coburg - VFL Round 12

Featured Replies

Rain coming down now sadly. Would be good to have a clean game for our talls. 

 
 

Why does Casey radio not cover VFL games very often?

Edited by Rusty Nails


Stretch continuing to be best on. Clearance numbers would be Oliver-esc. He is kicking really well and finding space. He does look like he could come in and play a role - I wonder though if Harmes and ANB are playing his role so he can’t get in? 

Weiderman is playing really well. Conditions not helping him but hasn’t been beaten and presented really well. I can see him being called back in sooner rather than later. Just a super talent and does all the basic stuff right. Playing really well in the ruck as well. 

Frost playing really solidly in the backline and his running and kicking setting us up. I think he will be an emergency next round at least. 

Spargo looks like he has hit the rookie wall. He looks spent! Playing inside mid though and doing some nice things. Does look classy but tired. 

Bugg quiet so they’ve moved him into the middle. 

Garlett sitting at the back of packs. IF he is brought back in its based on his training and team things, not on his performance. 

Petty and Pedo are solid. They aren’t really needed as it’s not in the back 50. Been impressed with Johnstone - changing my opinion of him. Balic pressuring but not having a great game.

i know a lot of love for Baker out there. Not the sort of conditions or game for him. Coach would be happy with his pressure and running patterns though.

Frost will always look okay at VFL level.

The bloke is not an AFL level defender and never will be which is clearly evidenced by Goody's refusal to name him as an emergency.

I don't care if he plays the greatest VFL game of his life, he is not AFL quality.

We've seen enough.

That is complete bull$ittt.  That would be the same Goody who was part of the team that decided Dunn wasn't up to AFL & consistently played Oscar McD when he was barely VFL level let alone AFL standard.

Frost makes errors but he will learn & he has all the attributes to make it  at AFL level but has been starved of opportunity.

If my ears don't deceive me from the streamed telecast Goodwin is actually playing in the ruck for Coburg.

    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?
