Won't be any pressure on selection at this rate. Gee whiz, worst Casey game I've seen love for a long while. 

Hoping for a turnaround in the second half. 

Agree can’t recall a worse quarter by Casey. Woey has turned it over 3 times for 3 goals. We are looking 2nd rate.

Need to regroup. I think BBB and Tom Have kicked 6 points between them.

 

Casey has a new game plan, see ball get ball and handball to someone under pressure, never thought of that, not quite working out yet.

Half Time Richmond VFL 7.3.45 lead Casey Demons 2.9.21

Goals Edwards Valentine

Disposals Dunstan 21 Harmes 14 Howes 10

Edited by KC from Casey


6.1 to 5 points by Casey.

Absolutely terrible quarter by Casey.

 

Really missing Jimmy Munro. He actually knows that offence comes from defence. Too many (basically all) Casey players running ahead of the ball and refusing to defend. That plus attrocious goal kicking and umpiring. It shows even at VFL level if you don't turn up with the right attitude you will lose. On the positive side, Casey can't possibly be any worse in the 2nd Half.


If Jimmy Munro is at the ground he may well go into the rooms at half time and start whacking his own team mates. 

This has been dead set heartless. Tigers are walking out of tackles like they're playing against U13s

Dunstan would be a world beater if he could even occasionally hit a target. 

I think you're right 'Neil', he doesn't look like hitting a target.

The only one who can kick a ball where it's supposed to go is Sestan.

...and he needs to get more of it.

Even though the commentator seems to call Sestan for every player she doesn't know the name of.

i've only watched the last half of the 2nd quarter and casey seem to be playing with no energy at all

so slow, lazy and sloppy. doesn't look like a casey team, more like a team of cardboard cut-outs

better pull out the finger in the 2nd half

 

Ben & Tom look a mile off AFL level at the moment.

Couldn't run out of sight on a dark night.


Strong team but will get a lot better…Ferris- White on interchange will be a worthwhile watch along with Jefferson, also on interchange.Hopefully Harmes has another good half as others are pathetic re TMac and Brown..Backline very poor, so far, first half

 

casey midfielders lack a lot today

the game plan is ponderously slow as we all know and lends itself to the running counter attack from our half forward line

Woey another turnover. Don’t know what is going on. 

It's called tying to do more than your ability allows.

  • 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?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?
