    Very tough on Brayshaw. He was very solid tonight.

    Generous on Tomlinson who I thought was beaten numerous times tonight.

    Jordon may be rarely sighted but had 22 touches and provides an important link in the chain.

    Tough on Brayshaw again. He doesn't need 30 disposals to play his role for the team.

    He also got absolutely smashed in a contest and has been playing in defense. He just does the team role every single week. 
    When he ran on without a helmet I was just thinking his poor mum must be beside herself.

    A class act. Way ahead of Hunt now in value and effectiveness.

    Angus Brayshaw committed and courageous

    Alex Neal-Bullen career best form

    Jayden Hunt hiding to nothing

    I normally don’t try to justify myself but in the case of Brayshaw’s analysis I will explain .

    I’ve marked him hard because his disposal by foot is regularly problematic, nothing more nothing less.

    And for those who think I have an agenda , he’s in my top 4 favourite players

    Hunt won’t play seniors when Salem/hibbo are fit.

    Thommo looked like he was 5 weeks off the pace early, got better but tbh if Petty wasn’t injured he would be at Casey building form. 
     

    Kozzie needs to start around packs further out and just fly past, they grabbed him slightly a couple of times last night, be out a bit further and the umps will see it. And he would move opponents all over the place.

    Who did he tag?

    Agree JB he can spray a few but some of his foot passes last night were terrific. Hit his intended target laser like  lace out. Massively impressed by his courageous return to the field and performance after being seriously ‘collected’. Given his history of concussion. It was a big hit.

    So Neal Bullen has played a lot more midfield minutes so far this season and he’s been really really good. But I can’t help thinking that we miss his forward pressure and the downside of him playing midfield is that the ball is leaving our forward 50 with much greater ease now.

    I just can’t believe how this guy has turned his game around. A couple of years ago he was my number 1 delist and now he is a fixture in our team and deservedly so. Well done ANB.

    Agree TC zi thought Angus kicking and disposal was excellent last night both in style of passes and consistency on very good delivery.

    Jordon was good and I thought Tommo saved us plenty of homes in defence.

    Kudos to all in defence msybe Hunty was off but all the others stood up well and teamed together and agsin put pressure in the Suns in attack as did the mids.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
