Half Time: Casey Demons 7.2.44 to Coburg 3.7.25

Goals: Muley 2 Baldi Briggs Cross Sheridan Woodhouse

Coburg wasted a lot of opportunities in that quarter and should be much closer. 

Shepherd playing a great game in defence for the Demons.

    Great work again @KC from Casey. Appreciate the coverage for the reigning premiers, not that it seems to have been deemed worthy for melbournefc.com.au to provide updates.

    Bunch of country league youngsters   
     

    More like a development squad. 
     

    Casey has about 12 VFL listed players missing and NONE of the AFL listed players. 

    Shepherd is definitely a player.

    The Lions certainly kicked themselves out of the game. They hit the post a couple of times and missed a few easy shots at goal. Basically, as a hit out, it didn’t really achieve much for Casey - a few players staked a claim for a place but competition for places is going to be tight.

    So out of the Casey players the players that played last week were Sheridan, Grass, Baldi, Cross, Freeman and Valentine

     

    So last weeks team was

    B: D.Smith, D.Turner, Buntine

    HB: Hibberd, Tomlinson, Freeman

    C: Howes, Jordon, Burgoyne

    HF: Sestan, van Rooyen, K.Turner

    F: Moniz-Wakefield, Schache, Jefferson

    FOLL: Verrall, Munro, Goonan

    IC: Farris-White, Steele, Grey, Sheridan, Grass, Baldi, Cross, Valentine

     

    I think Valentine kicked a goal against Richmond not Schache so Schache had 4, van Rooyen 2 and singles to Valentine, Grey, Jefferson and Verrall.

    Thanks KC.    Do Casey have a seconds side or the 30 odd players that miss out just go back to their other leagues.  How did Ned Moodie go

    No, Casey don’t have a seconds side. Players who don’t make the Casey team usually go back to their local side.

    Lions on that showing should incrementally improve this season. But a competitive practice match against the Casey ‘seconds’ doesn’t inspire too much confidence of a climb out of the basement.

    Casey boys certainly worked with prevailing conditions and took their opportunities better than Coburg.

    A few observations on individual players thru red and blue glasses.

    Jack Bell;  mobile competed manfully supported his team mates 

    Riley Baldi; impressed last season in his appearances at Casey. Showed grunt in tight as a inside mid-fielder.

    Cooper MacDonald; backline sweeper who read the play well. 

    Paddy Cross; provided defensive pressure on opponents and gave plenty of rebound. 
     
    Miles Shepherd; utility who was prominent in defence first half, swung into attack second half and hit the scoreboard.

    Rhys Galvin; stood up in defence with his intercept marking.

    Wal Wual; athletic player who covers the ground panther like. Still raw but involved in a play of the match nomination. Gathered the loose ball in a congested situation btw centre and CHB and laterally scythed thru traffic to commence a scoring chain which resulted in a Casey goal. An impressive cameo.

    A tantalizing prospect with a double twist. Firstly the dress rehearsal out west at E J Whitten Oval. Not unlike dancing with the wicked step sisters, (Mitch and Sauce). Followed by the the season opener at the Casey Vegas floor show. Question is will Friterella make a guest appearance at the gala ball up!?

    Must say I don't understand the need for all the byes unless it is driven by the need to reduce travelling by interstate teams and thus keeping costs down. With the ten Melbourne based AFL teams and the non aligned Melbourne teams (around 6 if I recall) there are ample teams for a twenty round season with no byes between the Melbourne teams alone.

    • 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?

      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.
