It's a tough game to play into the wind when you're down 23-5 in clearances. 

We've lost the top end of our AFL midfield, so we see that lack of depth for inside midfielders the most at VFL level, particularly when you're up against genuine quality like Sanders and Macrae. 

Let’s see how we go in the second quarter before the wrist slashing starts. That looks to be a pretty strong wind

First quarter for Casey reminiscent of Monty Python Four Yorkshiremen skit. As the goals piled on… Luxury, sheer Luxury. Well we can always look on the bright side. Casey with the breeze next quarter.

Geez we are putrid

Demons have the advantage of the wind in the next quarter but they need someone like Riley Sanders who has the ball on a string.

Is Luker Kentfield capable of racking up more than 4 touches a game?

Double take!

Marty Hore another timely intercept. Mitch White free! Working inside a telephone box. Fullarton free on i50. Terrific goal!

Fullarton kicks off the second quarter with a goal.

Wowed that was weak by Lachie Hunter..

Didn’t want that goal kicked against us.

Too slow and too much boundary play by Casey

Intercept > Link > Inside 50 > sprayed by McAdam

Passing ‘skills’  by foot or hand by Casey ordinary. Turnover city.

Good lord Fullarton is absolute crud in the ruck contests. 

He really is a below VFL standard player.

That’s the way Dazz. 

Footscray lead 42 - 15 as we approach the halfway mark of the second quarter.

Marty Hore is a beacon of hope in a stormy sea. Crunching tackle and holding the ball free.

Hoping a 42-15 scoreline isn't a portent of things to come.

Did Billings just flip the bird to someone in the crowd as he was coming off hurt?

Poor play by Casey leads to a turnover and gives Footscray a goal. 

Nice pass from Tomlinson to set up a Footscray goal.

Free kick given to Casey holding the ball after Casey bloke places ball under oppponent? Kynan Brown goal!

Just trying to work out the logic of playing Schache,  Brown, Jefferson and Kentfield forward in these conditions.  If Hunter is given a game to get his 200th it will be a gift. Ordinary and unaccountable. 

Good long goal from young pup

Kynan Brown kicks his first.
