Kick was fine, Laurie should have taken the grab...

How was that a free kick against AJ on the wing?

I actually think he goes ok and at least competes well.

That's what I was referring to... it was like it was a free kick for being too strong in a marking contest. Weird.

Decision making and execution needs vast improvement.

 

Show composure in the forward 50 and we’ll win this. Rushing too often

AJ’s follow-up work from marking contests is impressive.

Was having a bit of a laugh... wasn't a terrible kick. A little bit loopy though so gave the defender a chance. Also a dangerous spot.

I do like what I see from Sestan though, something to work with at half back.

 

Casey playing OK Cut down on some errors and they'd be way ahead


ex- sCat shows ‘em how.

Goals Edwards Hardie Verrall

Disposals Hardie 9 Cross Laurie 8 Sestan 7

Casey had more of the play but couldn’t translate this aspect onto the scoreboard.

Casey clearly trying to cut back through the middle at every opportunity but kicking each time to a player under pressure.

Easy to see what they are trying to do though. I wonder whether this is what the senior team is trying to do as well.....


Great forward pressure, and certainly trying to lower the eyes. Some concrete hands ruined excellent F50 entries, but the intent and commitment to the style has been encouraging.

Not a bad quarter, but we should be 4 goals up.

Unusual that Fullerton has dropped a couple and almost missed his foot with a snap.

Actually, think Verrall has won more taps than Campbell.

Good to see some method. Just need to hang onto a few marks now.

Trying to play the quick game and not quite connecting. That play interrupted by the siren was lovely.

Could be the ground but we are playing closer to the boundary than we do at Casey.

Laurie getting amongst it but needs to show some more skills. Woey needs to do more. Is K Brown playing?

I'm not one to write of players as a rule, but geez i'm getting close with Laurie.

Watching, i thought he had to go forward for that mark and show strength in his attack on the ball.

And speaking of attacking the ball, just a few minutes earlier he didn't straight line a ball inside our 50, they won it and transitioned it up the ground. Poor effort.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
