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

    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.

    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.

    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

    Half Time: Casey Demons 7.5.47 Footscray Bulldogs 6.3.39

    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.

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

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

    Jeepers Jetta having a shocker there.

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

    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
.?

    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.

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

    Wallis and West killing us.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • 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?

      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?
