Casey Demons v Box Hill Hawks - VFL Grand Final

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

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

    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)

    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).

    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.

    Sorry all 

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

    Just disappointed 

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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

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

    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.

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
