Casey Demons v Box Hill Hawks - VFL Grand Final

[whatwhat say what 23,855]

Once Hawks played two key forwards we were bereft of intercept and completely went to pieces in terms of ball movement 

It was an ugly game to watch with an uglier result

That last quarter was awful

 

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,825]

I thought Box Hill had by far the  better run from the umpires, who exuded inconsistency and diffidence.

Could someone please explain to me that last free they got dead in front after we marked it.Was it no 15, play on, then Petty was deemed to throw  it? ( I think he thought the ump was going to say no 15, but he didn’t, so he pulled his handball, expecting to be paid the mark)

Sorry all 

harsh on Hunt but I saw him as being a really good if not great player at end 2017. 

Just disappointed

Some fairly irrational responses here. I get you’re hurting but seriously. Hunt was good early, tried to take the game on and was under pressure every time he went near it. A good preseason and regaining some confidence will do a lot for him. Keilty and Petty were solid, including a huge impact early. JKH was excellent early but faded. Garlett poor. McKenna unsighted. Bernie tried but has called it at the right time. Pedo was Pedo. JWagner quiet. Tim Smith contributed. Bugg fought all game but struggled to have a big impact. Fritsch showed his talent and one of the few to continue to take the game on (though can’t understand why they think he’s a defender).

Keilty and Petty huge in the first half .

Dont know why the hatred for Hunt here. He broke lines, he put his head over the ball and created contests. He also hit tagets which has been one of his big problems. 

 

 

No he didn’t. Which game were you watching? He was terrible.

What a stinker of a captains game. Get stuffed

You're absolutely correct, he is nowhere near what he could be, and even worse, nowhere near what he was

Bull Smith has had a disappointing year. 5 goals 17 and doesn’t get involved enough. A limited player, unlikely to be up to AFL standard

I liked him Drunkn. Especially his first half.

[Cassiew 1,903]

Could have gone a small way to cheering me up from yesterday. Sigh

He paid over the shoulder for their 40 th free for the game. Disgusting umpiring just disgusting.

FUGGIN AWESOME. 2nd time I have watched him. looks the goods.

[layzie 34,528]

Umpiring was bad. I hate criticising this aspect of the game but this was up there with the Fri night Port game this year. 

[DSP 1,488]

Sad thing is apart from Fritta, Pedders looked the best of the bunch out there.

Garlett, Bugg, JKH and Hunt were all marginal.

Thats a lot of dead weight we are carrying.

[godees 913]

Umpires took the momentum from us and handed it too them on a platter in that second quarter.

We were killed by our lack of a recognised ruckman. Big need this off season. Fingers crossed for Preuss

Culture of losing continues with our club ... 

Only for a handful of pathological supporters.

The rest of us are celebrating a wildly successful season. 

[layzie 34,528]

It’s time for Bugg to bugger off, no disrespect to the bloke of course.

Coming off the back of zero disposals last week. Should not have been selected

Disappointing for the boys who have been playing there all season that they couldn’t get across the line. 

Can’t say I feel too much personal connection to Casey myself though. It surprises me that some are behaving as if this is some extension of yesterday.

Because MFC listed players play there?

What a poo house weekend, all things Red&Blue well and truely [censored] up the bottom. The Dees, Casey and Norwood

Bad things come in threes, well they sure did.
