Three quarter time: Casey Demons 8.3.51 somehow still lead Coburg 6.12.48

Goals: Muley 2 Baldi Briggs Cross Shepherd Sheridan Woodhouse

 

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.

Solid start to the game, plenty to build on 💪

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.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
