ANB not even an emergency for the ones.

[Diamond_Jim 12,628]

ANB is a listed emergency for the AFL team.

They will take two emergencies to the Gold Coast.

By my count that will leave 7 MFC players for the game at Windy Hill.

Must be getting close to a record low.

Thanks DJ, my bad.  I thought he had missed, and I saw him named on the ground.

Travelling emergency wont be able to make it back and play as the 2:00 start time overlaps the GC AFL game, so whoever goes has essentially a week off.  Not ideal for guys trying to push their cases.

Maybe, he is going to Run with Gaff.?

We've got a 6 day break, in which we're also making the longest trip in football (Qld to Perth), so maybe aren;t worried about having a couple guys not playing this week. Still not sure why you'd bring back Viney with that in front of us, and drop ANB who is super fit. Be interesting to see if any of the Casey guys are on restricted minutes with that in mind as well.

You feel old!

[Diamond_Jim 12,628]

So who ended up being the travelling emergency?

May make it but looks like there will only be around 7 MFC players available. And with Bombers on top of the VFL ladder it may not be the happiest of days.

What’s happened to Spargo?

Hope so. 

It might turn out to be a better spectacle than what transpires on the Gold Coast.  

[KC from Casey 7,117]

The women’s team beat Essendon by 3 points in the curtain raiser scoring 5.5.35 to 5.2.32. Came from well behind and kicked the last three goals of the final quarter.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Munro with the first goal of the game.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

ANB and Charlie Spargo are not playing.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Preuss and Baker goals and Casey leads 20 - 1 but they don’t call this place “Windy Hill” for nothing.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

QT: Casey Demons 3.2.20 lead Essendon VFL 1.2.8

Goals Baker Munro Preuss

Disposals Baker Freeman 6 Lewis Petty 5

You get the feeling that while they played well and kept the Bombers at bay for most of the term, it wasn’t enough.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Goal to Tim Smith makes it a good start to the second.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Smith is firing - gets his second!

[Diamond_Jim 12,628]

Just got here. First time I have ever had to ask someone where the scoreboard is.

Quite a breeze
