Swans on top second half of this quarter

 

Swans are well on top

 

I just watched the last ten minutes of that quarter and the ball didn't go into our half.  It doesn't help when every kick out of defence seemed to find a Swans player.  They were all over us and should be in front.

Half Time: Casey Demons 4.8.32 to Sydney Swans 4.5.29

Goals Weideman 3 Grey

Disposals Rivers 16 Baker 13 Munro 12 Ellison Melksham 10

The ball hardly crossed into the Demons forward line in the second half of the quarter.

 

Ground speakers playing Skyhooks “Livin in the 70’s” as I sit here feeling as if it’s just that. Spooky!

so this game is going to finish over an hour before the main game.

So much for curtain raisers

what did the gap used to be?

i remember seeing a few vfl / afl reserves games back in the late 80s and early 90s and it was never anything quite like that sort of gap between the magoos and the seniors

Here's hoping tonight isn't a "Horror Movie" for Demon fans.

Indeed. Is so quiet now, I can hear Balwyn calling.

about 15 -20 minutes top.

In the 80's the seconds would clap the firsts onto the field and then head up the race.

Generally the last quarter was watched by very close to the match day crowd


Beautiful work from Ellison on the wing... loved the leap pack crunch from JVR.  Moniz all class waiting for the crumb for his 2nd....this kid!

Moniz HB to Dunstan to Melk and then White ....yipeee

George Grey snaps his second.

My bad!

For anyone watching - are Weeds marking and goals impressive or easy goals/free kicks?

 

 

Well Munro aint gonna be happy with that

he's working the f50 perfectly, just as he always does as the main option

he and sideshow bob essentially play the same role - it's no surprise that they struggle to gel as a key forward combination

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.
