Baker in a different role was worth a go but the backline isn’t it. Half forward next (at Casey)

    Jordon stiff. Free kick was rubbish and we’ve got away with walking up as we returned the ball for years. Viney is Viney. 

    jordon wasn't stiff, jordon was dumb

    that's exactly why the 'time wasting' rule came in

    Wasnt stuff. Was told twice to hand the ball back


    If Carlton had a forward line (aside from Mackay) they might do some damage this year. But they’ll be 9-10th I’d say. Defence is average too

    got The making of a good midfield though

    Carlton very scatter gun. Look a bit like Melbourne 2018. Could cause damage this year.

     

    Fritsch again goes to ground laying an ineffective tackle.

    What is up with him? Dees need to take the finger out - serious attitude issues.

    Credit to Carlton though - they'll make finals based on this.

    We look pretty flat, disorganised with less numbers at the contest. Lucky it’s just a practice match!

    Sure but it’s a new rule and preseason, someone has to stuff up so the others have seen it

    Being absolutely reamed by the umps I'd say.

    Yep but we are looking very ordinary

    Pretty insipid training run I must say. I get we have no back half but I’d expect some pressure around the ball at least.

    Our big guns are a bit off and we’re mucking around with it inside 50. Plus the backline is the backline.

    Nothing too concerning so far, really it’s the result of winning a game by 80 points. 
     

    Advice for the inside 50’s is take the easy ones.

    Advice for the backline is stick more defensive then worry about rebound or intercepting.

    Am I watching the same game as you blokes we had almost double the inside 50s and got unlucky a few times they aren’t even close to on top.

    Remember the last time we lost a pre season game? 
     

    Spoiler alert: we won a flag

    No Salem or May. Pretty much doing ok. Only downside I can see is we are susceptible to a crumber. Hibberd usually fixes that quick smart so he is our biggest loss. 

    If the new interpretations are anything to go by scrap them. The umpires have killed us.

    Every bounce going their way so far. Agreed.

    • 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.

      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?
