Footy, Seaworld style.

 

Looking forward to the runners coming out on Jetskis

Funny commentary as it’s pi55ing down and the ground is awash:

“Casey are kicking with both the wind and the tide at the moment...”

Commetti-esque.

 

Bugg looks at home in these conditions


How long has McKenna been back for? Forgotten player.

haha, Dom Tyson playing dry weather footy, in 6 inches of water.

Done well to keep them goalless for a half

Great to see Vanders back. Pat McKenna has shown a bit. Hannan too good for the 2’s

Vanders excellent in the conditions.  First game for 2 years and he had a real impact!

Best thing in the first half was Oskar Bakers clean pick up of the slippery ball and the spin away from a defender to get clean possession .

It stood out like a sore thumb as the game is so sloppy and the balls so hard to handle.

Just a tad difficult for me to comprehend the playing conditions given that I'm following the commentary from my hotel balcony in Athens where it's already 25 degrees at 8:22 am (sorry - just had to brag to someone)

In Mt Eliza it's 28 degrees. Drops 20 degrees when you hit Olivers Hill.

I think we need to kick the ball off the ground more. In those conditions there is significant advantage to it.

I sometimes think the average player is so brow beat about what they are supposed to do that they lose all ability to adapt.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    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?
