CASEY: Rd 09 vs Sandringham

[demon3165 2,323]

Can someone please explain why you play on from the centre at pace and then kick to 3 on one opposition and the other forwards no where near it?

[Tarax Club 3,354]

Sandy have the goal scoring end five straight 

[Tarax Club 3,354]

AMW 12 disposals not a kick in in sight. Paddy Cross closes the gap.

[Demon Dynasty 16,353]

Moniz prolific ... ends up with Bill who hits Sesto lace out on the lead.

Sesto hits a shorty to Windsor who goes back amd misses from 30 in front

Sandy by 2 points

[MrFreeze 1,632]

Casey ball movement looking the best it has all year.

[Tarax Club 3,354]

Casey a competitive quarter, inaccuracy for goal denies them the lead.

Entertaining footy. 

Laurie, AMW, Tholstrup all excellent. Billings using it well, K Brown had some impressive early touches. Jefferson showing that he's capable at ground level and not just reliant on his marking. Sestan got more involved as the quarter wore on and looks dangerous inside 50.

Laurie is a small forward with no real pace but has footy smarts. Perhaps that’s he only real position.  Hes not a midfielder imv

Surely AMW gets a promotion soon. His tackling is good.  Won some good contested footy too.

Inability to get clean possession inside 50 hasn't helped. Sandringham much better going inside 50

Casey would positively lead the i50 count. Sandy cleaner more efficient.

[Tarax Club 3,354]

Jeffo TWO!

Yes they often miss lateral or 45 options but it's also a result of some forwards not working hard enough (repeat efforts) to hit up at the ball carrier.

This same thing purveys alot when players are bursting out of stoppage through the middle or off a wing. 

The leads from designated forwards often go missing.  They are somehow expecting fatigued player to kick it over the head of their defender as they run away from them towards goal.

Alternatively a player at stoppage receiving or gathering under pressure then having to dump kick.  Often forwards sit back in this situation allowing their direct opponent or a spare to play in front for the easy intercept.

See this quite often at senior level too.

One of my bug bears.  Very frustrating to watch.

Their transition has been quicker / slicker on occasions too giving them nice looks inside 50

[Demon Dynasty 16,353]

Edwards having a decent game so far.

Hits up Benny who then decides not to shoot at goal from 50 and returns the favour to Edwards who misses from 35 on a 45

[KC from Casey 6,774]

Ten minutes in and the Zebs grab the lead back.

[Dee-licious 1,867]

Jeffo with a good contested mark but fades right. 

[Tarax Club 3,354]

Mitch White playing a captain’s game.

[KC from Casey 6,774]

Zebs spraying the goals 38 - 37.

[DubDee 21,954]

Agree, but one can see you have no forwards present but they just kick without understanding they need to hold it up till the forwards get back it's just playing on for the sake of it, it's bad coaching full stop.
