    Two questions re the Sporting Globe Bar

    1/ what was May drinking?

    2/ was Melk there?

    Surely the f.ck J.Smith (44) is not playing defence again , the selectors must be sh.t scared to try something out of the ordinary. Probably trying to cover their arses.

    Interesting to see where Joel lines up. Steven May said he would be playing forward on Wednesday night in answer to a question about our lack of tall forward options.

    With a little over an hour to go before today’s game, it’s worthwhile mentioning that Casey’s closest rival Southport is playing Collingwood at Victoria Park and is getting a bit of a touch up at half time.  Needless to say that it’s highly likely that the Demons are going to finish on top of the ladder and in doing so will provide useful back up to the AFL team’s finals campaign. In addition, this means that a few of the clubs younger brigade should get some valuable finals experience to assist with their development. The first round of the VFL finals are four weeks away and, although he’s listed as being still 6 to 7 weeks away, there are reports that we’ll see Tom McDonald in action with Casey at around this time. Watch this space.

    Anyone know if Kade Chandler and the emergency(s) who went to WA managed to get back here for today’s game?

    Highly doubt it, they took the red eye last night. Would've landed early this morning

    But what about the emergencies? They could have left earlier.

    A little pre match banter on the stream would not go astray.

    Perhaps a pre recorded player or coach interview.

    Wonder what the commentary will be like. I liked the Bulldog commentary last week except that the microphone levels of the two commentators seemed to be at different levels.

    For all the complaints we make about the AFL this has been a great innovation

    They’re off in the battle between the top of the ladder Casey Demons and last placed and  Northern Bullants. Kade Chandler is in the team so he made the red eye from Perth and the Casey team appears as selected.

    Mitch Brown gets the ball off a pack and snaps truly the Demons’ first.

    • 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?
