Casey with its wind is not a great ground for practicing goal kicking. That said the wind doesn't look too bad today on the broadcast

Pretty good without dominating

His best work has been in link up play between the arcs where he has found space and used the footy well in transition

Had 2 shots on goal in the first quarter, one long bomb from 55 and a second from a set shot inside 50 where he missed both

Has played pretty much exclusively as an inside mid from what I can tell but you miss stuff with the dodgy camera work

A few too many quick kicks. 
He has the ability to break tackles - just needs to try it.

Verral has no physical presence 

Yeah I've been a pretty staunch supporter but he's heading towards delist material. 

3rd year in the system and hasn't shown any improvement at all. As you say, for such a big guy he does lack that physical presence.

Sure you weren’t looking at Lewis?

With that many talls they should be raffling it. Too often players are not minding their opposition - no care for their teammates. 

 

Jeeesus the skill level from our MFC players in Brown and Campbell have been atrocious so far in this last quarter.

I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

Get this Daz.. I was the goalkicking coach for De.La Salle and Old Melbourne grammarians after I retired and both won flags when I was there. My phys ed background worked a treat! It needs a regimented structured approach, but I reckon my methods weren't that hard to master!

Lovely work from Langers there

Let me save you the heartache, Verral will not make it. I’ve got more of a chance of making it………….

…………….now wait for him to set the world on fire in 3…..2…….1……

Baldi & Yze having an impact in this last Q

 

That score pretty much sums up the one v one today

Scores are officially nice.

Meanwhile, these commentators are reminding me of when I discovered that Robbocoholic becomes bearable if you speed up the audio to 1.5x. I think 1.25 would do for this pair.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
