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.

QT Casey Demons 3.5.23 Geelong VFL 3.3.21

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.

Boy Johnson is a very limited player

Common problem- so I’m told.

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.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
