CASEY: Rd 13 vs Werribee

[defuture15 902]

Very very hard to watch. Werribee can't buy a goal. About 5 missed chances at this end for the quarter. I have finally seen the score board sitting on the ground!

[smiFFy 274]

Baker's disposal has been rubbish all game.

[Sydee 4,672]

good lead, mark and goal to weid 

[KC from Casey 7,198]

Weideman marks and kicks his second. Dees lead by 3 goals.

[Sydee 4,672]

35 - 18 casey lead at half time 

[defuture15 902]

It could be worse. We could have no.1 for Werribee upforward for us!

[KC from Casey 7,198]

Half Time: Casey extended its lead to 17 points but this has been a horrible game of footy. The Demons have dominated inside 50s but their forwards have often been closed down by the Tigers defence.

Bowey is too good to be in the VFL. The kid has it all except for height. Will play 200 games. 

[adonski 13,202]

Bite the bullet and train Bowey up as a winger

[chook fowler 19,757]

How is Bowey’s pace?

I can only think he is yet to build the tank to play wing at AFL level - that two way running that say Langdon does is not easy

Has speed - both running and with disposal. No doubt he is a good footballer just need to find the right spot / right time 

[old dee 24,072]

Standard is ordinary but I am enjoy a real game for a change. Casey should be double their score. But Tigers are playing good defence.

Decent without being lighting. His strengths are elite kicking, decision making and composure.

As an established player, he’s most similar to Caleb Daniel and the clubs developing him in a similar half back rebounding role. At underage level he was a half forward/wing/midfielder. He’s definitely versatile and we’ll love his kicking skills in future if he’s paired up with Salem off halfback!

Mitch Robinson like squeal whenever he is in space and demanding the ball. Can see why they don't always honour it.

[Whispering_Jack 31,341]

Love Bowey’s game and Declase and Turner look to be handy additions. 

Weideman looks good at this level but there’s very little fire power or marking strength up forward or pressure to keep the ball inside 50.

They lost last week when the Giants played the same type of defensive game. They need to step up a gear - especially those striving to break into the Melbourne team.

He’s a cross between Salem and Hunt in terms of pace and skill. Great balance and makes good decisions. Only issue at AFL will be height. Half back is his spot IMO. 

[KC from Casey 7,198]

Weideman has three - lead is 15 points.

[JTR 2,906]

Rosman with an ice pack on the bench. Very high up, inner/rear thigh. Hamstring?

[DeeSpencer 26,650]

Ice on Rosman’s hammy.
 

Backline struggling one on one, midfield need to lift and put this one away

Hammy - yes.

[KC from Casey 7,198]

A stupid 50 metre penalty gifts a goal to Werribee and reduced the Demons lead to 7 points.

[old dee 24,072]

Werribee playing way better than us this quarter should be in front, poor kicking for goal is costing them. 

[KC from Casey 7,198]

Great play in defence by Bowey leads to a beautiful goal from Bedford to steady the team.
