QT  Casey Demons 6.4.40 Footscray Bulldogs 0.1.1

The Demons came out of the blocks with the wind at their backs and dominated the term right through to the siren.

Declase is getting very close to a debut. Physically ready and good skills. Love to see us give him a chance.

Corey Ellison with an early goal for him.

This kid Ellison looks very much like a natural, space-optimising forward. Let's get him developed.

[Deemania since 56 6,805]

Great start. Dominant quarter from the Casey team. Quite a few of Casey's players are a league ahead of those from Footis-kry. Oscar the Baker is making great space moves and has great pace.

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Wonder if Jonesy a chance to go to Perth now that the team is coming back here first, if he gets thru this game unscathed?

The vfl stats is all over the shop. I've counted twice that Bailey Laurie has had 2 handballs but yet is listed as not having a touch.

Glad I’m not the only one going insane over this.

if Baker gets a senior game then we are going bad,  he has to have one of the worst disposals by foot in the game cannot hit 15 metre target.

Agree despite the windy conditions.  His pace is good but disposal is lacking.

If he had better decision making/skills he'd be incredible

Goals Goals White 2 Baker Declase Ellison Grey Jones

The Bulldogs came back hard in the second quarter after conceding the Dees the first goal against the wind. It took the Dogs 9 minutes into the second quarter to score their first goal of the game by which time they trailed by 46 points. They’re right back in the game now thanks to six unanswered goals.

[Redleg 42,144]

Casey is disposing themselves out of this game. Totally wasting a gale.

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Footscray get the first goal of the third quarter and trail by just a point. 

[Redleg 42,144]

Jetta in a crazy piece of play from a kick in, handballs over Jones head and gives away a goal.

[dazzledavey36 56,285]

Jeepers Jetta having a shocker there.

Unfortunately our VFL are just ordinary suburban players. Killing is with turnovers.

[Neil Crompton 5,838]

Just seen why Jetta and Jones are no longer AFL standard - sad.

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Bedford gets his first for the afternoon. Casey needed that.

Getting beaten in every facet. It’s gonna really really ugly in the last quarter. Bulldogs play like their seniors - hungry, sharp, constantly there for each other. Probably some learnings there….?

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Footscray get one back. Casey by 2 points.

[Adam The God 30,715]

Not a player out there worth a game in the AFL. 

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Footscray takes the lead by 4 points.

In case anyone’s wondering, free kicks are 13-8 in the Doggies’ favour.

[Webber 10,650]

I take it back…..getting ugly this quarter. Western Bulldogs depth is truly frightening. As of now, I don’t see  how they don’t win the premiership.this year. 

[Click_Bate 182]

Geez this has been a trash performance by Casey after quarter time. Smacked in every area of the game

Helped them that we took extra players for our trip and weakened the team dramatically.

Wallis and West killing us.

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Dogs dominating and have extended their lead to 8 points. 

[KC from Casey 7,211]

Goal to Footscray - now a 14 point lead. What a turnaround!
