Two narrow defeats in a row have placed the Casey Demons in the precarious position whereby they must beat the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Sunday to avoid a wild card playoff for teams finishing 7th to 10th.

That is a tall forward line!!!

yep

It's been a problem in a few games. Especially if you are trying to play one of them into form.

Realistically.. all eyes on TMac

Like Disco back in. Steele should come back in and maybe Neocluous as I think Jordon will be sub and Spargo the carryover player.

I think that is probably right. Bell a bit unlucky not to come back in after injury but, to put it mildly, team seems okay in the talls department. I am not sure it will start that way, but the FF line is remarkable.

The team is not tall enough!

Footscray’s 12 goal victory over Port Melbourne today means that Casey will drop to 7th if it loses to the Brisbane Lions tomorrow. 

My interpretation, to avoid dropping to 7th ( where they went to today but with a game to come ) the boys have to not only win tomorrow, but do so by a margin of around 28% to avoid being in 7th on percentage.

A challenge but doable.

and Brown!


Rhys Mathieson playing tommorrow, might have to go and bag him!

Ziggy Toledo-Glasman,

Gotta see this guy play  ZTG 

Another game where I only see up to 3/4 time, as I have to head to the "G".

Not very good scheduling. 

Great that D.Turner is back, with Jed developing and Kye getting some match fitness, the youngsters to show us that they know their roles and can work together well. Lead them on Hibbo.


Looks like Schace and Jordan have been sent to the G. 

Grundy, Hibbo, Spargy, all at Casey, Jeffo on a wing, GRUNDY KEY FORWARD AGAIN

 

AH BIT???? DEESGRACE T.MAC KICKS FIRST

  • 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.

    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?
