    What’s happened to Petty’s marking? Seems to be misjudging the flight of the ball.

    His marking has been very strong the last few weeks, same as Keilty

    Dunno what’s going on with both of them

    Troy Chaplin is what’s going on with them.

    Keilty was clunking everything that came his way the last 2 weeks

    Dunno what’s happening today

    Big difference in foot skills. Chandler the only one to maybe get excited about at this stage.

    Gotta be the wind, all our players going up 2 secs too early

    This looks like a complete training drill for the Hawks

    Our easy exits from defensive 50 are an embarrassment at both afl and vfl level - really sub-standard defensive efforts

    2 goals 2 for the quarter with the breeze compared to 4 goals 2 into it...not good!

    They look as bad as the seniors

    Bombing it forward, shambles in defence. Look like our 1sts.

    Chandler and Stretch the only 2 having a go the rest are pathetic. If Smith could kick he might be a good player.

    have never really understood why we exclusively play the same gameplan at VFL as at AFL.

    Sure play it for a half or every second game ...but experiment !!!

    Frankly at VFL level the chaos theory is more of a scrum that does not encourage skills

    So far In: Preuss, Stretch

    Out: T.Mac (if injured) (if not) O.Mac and ANB.

    I can't believe O.Mac gets another game due to this performance.

    Is Chaplin the worst coach in history? Must be close.

    Stretch has been killing it. Showing genuine speed. I'd bring him in for KK.

    Hawks run & carry (able to link up more often with quick ball movement) and have more players capable of side stepping / baulking or turning their opponents to run into space or switch play.  They are more fleet of foot also.  We have mostly slow/pedestrian plodders in comparison.

    They are also hitting so many more targets by foot and finishing in front of goal beautifully.

    have to remember that the Casey team is almost unrecognizable from that which played last year. I'd love KC to give us the numbers but it's probably 50% turnover if not more.

    What the hell was Hore doing? Left his man and allowed him to take an easy. Woeful recruit go back to Collingwood!

    Baker not showing much, pity.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      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?
