Pederson hit high, tripped, got rid of the ball, pinged holding the ball.  Worst umpiring decision I've seen in a very long time.

Copped three bad ones in the last quarter. Terrible umpiring.

 

Without Frost and Vince we would have been beaten badly. Great effort from both. 

Keilty impressive down back, showed plenty of composure. 

Tim Smith worked hard all day, great game from him. 

Baker, Vince good also. 

Jeffy, better...

 

Loved the Bernie interview post match. However long it takes, he will be banging the door down to get back in the team. He’s not giving up just yet.

You obviously didn’t see Melksham last week

Baker has the worst haircut in the VFL

His girlfriend may be his hairdresser. She appears to be wearing a Pies scarf in the Instagram pic.

I have pushed that game out of my memory.

Really liked the games of Baker, Stretch, Vince, Smith and Kielty.  Lots at the next level, Frost good amongst them.  DJ goes hard.  Not much of JKH or Bugg today.  Need more from Balic.  Garlett not on form today - not sure if it was because it didn’t go right for him, or he just didn’t go enough? Kent was way off the pace, but probably better for the run.

 

Baker was terrific! Good size too. Could certainly see him on a wing in the AFL side

Twice in the last Kent had the chance to seal the game one did not make the distance and the other was almost out on the full. Poor kicking from a senior player.

I think Dom Tyson will be looking over his shoulder.

Every week I watch Casey we get slaughter in the ruck the opposition get first use of the ball. King must be the worse ruckman going around in the vfl. Today is no exception. God helps if we ever to use him in the seniors.

king has no afl attributes, young but no potential

Umps gave them 3 goals

Nick hind from essendon is certainly worth a look in at the draft, might be a good  fit as an outside runner that we so desperately need and bog imo

Reckon Baker and Stretch must be given a go very soon, Stretch has become a lot tougher

Good hard fought win

 

STRETCH - Prolific but done nothing to suggest he can take the next step

KENT - Poor really rusty.

FROST - Really good game.

PEDERSEN - Serviceable game, took a few good marks.

VINCE - Fantastic game, too good for VFL level.

KENNEDY HARRIS - No real impact.

BALIC - In and out of the game.

BUGG - No real impact as well.

BAKER - BOG must be close to AFL selection.

KING - Still developing took a nice mark and kicked a nice goal.

GARLETT - Poor really struggling at VFL level.

JOHNSTONE - Done some good things developing nicely as a backman.

T.SMITH - Started like a house on fire, but died out of the game late.

KEILTY - Mr. Dependable the best backman on the ground.

FILIPOVIC - No real impact.

A bit hard on Billy methinks. Otherwise spot on. Probably Keilty’s best game.

Me thinks too, Billy played bloody well, should and will be given a go in the ones very soon 


bakers footskills are poor and very loopy, had a solid game but frost Vince and keilty were all better

Can’t see Vince back unless he swaps with Lewis. Thought Keilty was excellent and Frost good, stretch first half very good but little impact on second half. Baker covers the ground well and wins the ball well but doesn’t do much with it yet. I think the rest are nothing more than back ups to our best 22. 

I watch Casey each week. Unless there are a lot of injuries Gartlett is finished. JKH was consistently beaten one on one all day. 

On the bright side Baker gets better each week. Spoke to him at Willy and he spoke a lot of sense. 

Also I have been harsh on Frost but the last two weeks has been very good. Dion is also improving  

Lets hope nothing happens to Gawn because Casey ruchmen are three years away.

Could flatten his kicks out a bit; has a tendancy to up and unders

 

Second week in a row Billy has had a hard tag in the second half. I'm not sure it's something he'd have to cope with at AFL level.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
