CASEY: Rd 01 vs Footscray

[KC from Casey 7,130]

Mitch Hannan snaps for the Dogs and now it’s a 14 point game.

[KC from Casey 7,130]

Momentum has changed in favour of the Bulldogs who get their third in 5 minutes. Now 34 to 26.

[smiFFy 264]

when you dominate a quarter and a half and only kick 4.10 it's going to come back and bite you.

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Mcpherson a nice specky in the pack and kicks truly.  Three in a row for the Doggys now.

Hibb with 20 disposals putting his hand up for the job on Paps this week

I love Hibbo. He only knows one way. Straight through.

For who though Chook?

Dunstan is more likely for Harmes.  Getting a fair bit of it so far.  Needs to clean up the disposal somewhat

Melksham. Can’t see why Jordon couldn’t replace Harmes either. Also Hibberd for McVee - going well at Casey. Schache for Max. 

[Vipercrunch 2,847]

Great to see several players putting their hands up and keeping pressure on the seniors.

Jordon has been quality and  should replace Harmes.

Hibberd had got a lot of ball sweeping but I am not convinced anymore on him defensively. McVee would be very stiff to not play round 3 being Cameron took one mark and kicked 2 goals on a night when our backs were massively under the pump.  

Schache has not hurt his chances but interesting that JVR seems to have been preferred to relieve in the ruck behind Bell. Whether to play Schache, JVR or both is still up for grabs based on their second half output. 

[dazzledavey36 55,889]

Jordon completely dominating in the midfield. Direct replacement for Harmes thanks.

Hibbo still got it. You'd think he'd come in for McVee who I actually thought battled well. Another senior head down back won't hurt.

Schache the dominant forward so far. Has already taken 5 marks in the first half and unlucky not to have a couple of goals on board.

Special mention to Bailey Laurie. Looks complete different player to what he was last year. Class, poise and distributing well.

[DeeSpencer 26,299]

Rough end of the half losing some centre clearances and getting beat by some good efforts by the Dogs forwards.

JJ’s been impressive with his ability to cover the ground and contested work in important contests. Whether he’s truly an inside mid just yet is another question but he’s certainly pushing for a spot and they can move wingers and find room for him. He’s kept it simple.

Dunstan’s been Dunstan.

Hibbo’s had some good moments, he’s certainly still a star at this level.

Howes flashes brilliance just needs to get more playing at half back. K Turner has more work to do on his kicking than I thought previously but he’s very willing 

Scache’s been the best of the key forwards taking marks and drawing free kicks. JVR’s best has been enticing but he’s made a few unusual errors with his kicking. Has been involved though which is good.

I’ve really liked the game of Max Gregory aka Fake Bowey. 

[Vipercrunch 2,847]

Sounds like the commentary is coming from a bathroom. 

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Dunstan, Schache & Bell doing well so far early in the third

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Great goal from the left pocket from Hannen grrr

[Diamond_Jim 12,688]

Casey disposal leaving a little to be desired

[KC from Casey 7,130]

A goal apiece this term. Schache now has 2.

[Vipercrunch 2,847]

Anyone know where Verrell and the other young ruck is?  And is a disco out there?

[KC from Casey 7,130]

Two points in it now.

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Hannan having a pretty mad third term.  Him & Mcpherson bringing the Dogs back into it.

Holding call against the Doggys in the Square sees JVR get his first to get one back

[KC from Casey 7,130]

Two quick goals either way and it’s 2 points the difference again.

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Moniz a snap for his first kick (jkgs) and goal

[KC from Casey 7,130]

Moniz-Wakefield snaps across the body. 52 - 44.

[smiFFy 264]

great goal 

[Demon Dynasty 17,132]

Sestan crazy snap out of the ball up about 30 out
