It’s a VFL practice match Dazzle. 

I wouldn’t expect too much.

Casey defeated Geelong 12-7-79 to 7-9-51

Carryover emergency : Hore

Goal scorers : 2 Stretch, T.Smith, Keilty, Gent 1 Preuss, Chandler, C.Wagner, Munro

TEAM

B: WHITE, HUTCHINS, TYNAN

HB: J.WAGNER, PETTY, MUNRO

C : BAKER, MAYNARD, MCCAFFERY

HF: C.WAGNER, T.SMITH, GENT

F: BEDFORD, KEILTY, CHANDLER

FOLL: PREUSS, STRETCH, SPARGO

IC: STOCKDALE, STEPHENSON, D.COLLIS, W.COLLIS, M.LEWIS, WALE-BUXTON, D.FRITSCH, GAHAN

 

SPARGO: Disappointing, slow start got into it a little bit but is a long way from a senior recall.

BEDFORD: Quiet done a few good defensive things finds it hard to find the ball.

STRETCH: Had a blinder he was everywhere and kicked 2 goals very close to senior selection.

MAYNARD: Nothing to write home about really a few good inside things but he isn't playing near his best like he did a few years ago.

PREUSS: Beat his opponent in Zac Smith but needs to do more around the ground.

BAKER: Just a game done a few good runs but that was about it.

PETTY: A class above Oscar should be in the side. Done everything right.

CHANDLER: A work in progress but showed some good signs.

T.SMITH: After a slow start worked into it Pretty well, missed a few shots but kicked 2.

C.WAGNER: Fantastic game but let's himself down by foot sometimes.

J.WAGNER: Really good second half a solid backman.

KEILTY: After a good start realitively quiet took some good marks.

McCaffery spent the second half on the bench not sure if injured.

Good to see Hutchins at full back as solid as ever don't play him forward again.

I'd rather wait and bring him in when he is smashing the door down, full of confidence.

A backline of May, Lever and Petty is so much more inspiring than with OMAC and Frost in there.

I think some context is required when discussing Petty.

He was playing in a VFL practice match, it's a massive step up to AFL.

I think Petty will absolutely become a permanent fixture of our backline in the future. He's 197cm, agile for a big man and from what I've seen reads the play well and has decent disposal.

But he is not ahead of OMac or Frost yet and should continue to develop at VFL level this season unless we have a ridiculous amount of injuries (fingers crossed).

FYI I'm looking forward to a back 6 next season of:

Jetta         May       Lever

Hibbo       Petty      Salem

Agree, especially when coupled with @WERRIDEE's well known 'love' for OMac and Frost.

I prefer Frost I still like his speed and could be a good match up on Rohan. Oscar gives us nothing.

Yeah he's fast but did you see his 4 runs last weekend that ended in a turnover? He is DUMB

Thanks to @WERRIDEE for scores and goalkickers. Assume the club might have some sort of bash at VFL coverage once the real stuff starts, but given that the last two weeks have been trial games for senior selection in all but the award of premiership points their commitment to telling people what's going on has been pox.

You can say that again DD.  Our backline would probably be the worst in the AFL right at this moment.

thanks Werridee!

So you would think Stretch will be looked at.  could he play the small fwd/crumber role we are desperately in need of??

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
