completely different midfield set-up for casey without either jj or woey 2.0 there

jvr gets a goal out the back; he's been very quiet

Has he had a chance ?

    he's been stationed i50 and only just had his first major lead up the ground to mark, handed it off to white who bombed it straight to chandler with two blokes on him

    tomlinson is an awful kick - under zero pressure he kicks it straight to oppo's tallest bloke on the ground, who drops it, and the rove ended up with harmes marking just outside the square for a goal

    Funny kind of quarter. We were dominated by Sandy, who didn't capitalise. Then in the last 10 minutes started getting better forward entries. 

    Many of the MFC listed were in and out of the game.  Also, occasionally sloppy with handling and disposals. 

    Interesting that they are playing Chandler as a mid, some of the time.

    What's happened to Turner, as he is not playing?

    JVR looking very ordinary 

    Some of the delivery's been a bit ordinary.  Under blusty conditions though.  Might help if the Jeffo & Roohey worked to get front position a tad more

    Blake Howes classy. Beats two on the wing then a perfect kick. Jefferson taking two great marks and delivering a good ball to Schache who lost it in the sun. Laurie creates a good mark to AMW who misses. Getting back on top. Good experience for Verral in his third game playing on a genuine AFL ruck in Cambell.

    JVR takes a nice chest mark at 50. Misses an easy pass to Chandler who passes to Jefferson who gets punched in the head. No free, Schache gets a free in the ensuing throw in and goals. We’re on top atm.

    JVR takes a lovely mark on the lead at 48m. Kade Chandler demands the footy leading to a deep pocket, bottles the mark and it spills over the boundary. Chandler playing for himself. 
     

    Schache meanwhile gets a free, kicks his fourth. He must come into the side, and Gawn or Grundy has a spell. Maybe ply one as a sub

    This English guy commentating is mixing up his players.

    Called Schache Laurie after a goal and Moniz Wakefield, Chandler and then Munro, before getting it right.

    Sounds like he wants Brian Taylor's job

    Pretty sure that JVR kick was in to the teeth of the breeze, they both stuffed the pass.

    Schache got a soft in the back free. Nice finish, he’s putting his hand up but not busting the door down.

    We should give Deakyn Smith a run as a defensive pressure forward, he’s down the pecking order as a defender but he’s a really willing competitor.

    • 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?
