all single goalscorers for the dees - laurie, hardie, ireland, mentha, kentfield, billings, cross

billings bog for mine; that goal he kicked was incredible

the votes from my spot on the other side of town...

6: billings
5: campbell
4: laurie
3: hardie
2: woewodin
1: bonner

you can see why bonner didn't make it at afl level; he gets a heap of the ball and really doesn't use it well enough for a player who is predominantly on the outside of the contest

I think I've officially watched the worse game of footy ever.

You clearly didn't watch the first 89 minutes of the Subway Socceroos vs Japan last night

Billings will go down in history as one of those classic “too good for VFL but not good enough for AFL” players.

Laurie probably the same.

couldn't agree more

same situation as mitchell white, riley bonner

That was never say die old fashioned football in less than ideal conditions. Thoroughly enjoyed it. A gritty win to Casey.

Yes.

Do we add Woe into that mix as well or too early? Such a terrible shot at goal. Showed something in the clinches in and under though. Was he asked to play that role tonight or is it just starting to click?

Thought Laurie, Woe & Billings were the diff in that second half.

I turned it off about the 60 minute mark.

One of the most boring matches i'd witnessed at that (world cup qualifying) level.


At least that’s one win over the filth for the weekend Go Dee’s

Jack Billings surpriseds by kicking straight

The goal he always needed to kick…

Big game at the ‘G in his dreams

Was it Woey2.0 that was next to the filth player that got a freebie on our forward flank. A quick jab in the guts was it. They replayed it once but I had no sound

Yes.... was a love tap pushing off his opponent. The opponent milked it big time. Should've been play on. The umps love the filth.


It was a hard watch but even harder to look away, I thought that they would overrun us but Casey are very gritty and appear to have found their belief, even with so many outs, they never dropped their heads, what happened with Adam’s and Hore gave the Pies a bit of a run on and a bit of an edge until Billings and Cross snuffed them out. Go Casey.

Missed the game tonight but just read this thread from the first bounce to the final siren.

Well done posters.

To say that you gave me a feel for the game is understating it

Thanks to all

Respectfully disagree.

Billings has played 172 AFL games over 12 seasons, averaging about 14-15 games per season. Clearly he has been good enough for AFL: he is in the top 1000 all time VFL/AFL games played (over 13000 have played at least 1 game, and only ~4000 have got to 50 games).

Has he been an AFL star or able to regularly dominate at AFL level? No. Maybe right now he fits the "too good for VFL but not good enough for AFL" descriptor, but it doesn't sum up his career.

However right now I thinkthat is how Laurie is tracking. He'll get more chances this year and next, but I suspect ultimately he will be not be good enough to play regularly at AFL level.

Noah was selected to play for the Oakleigh Chargers against the Sandringham Dragons in tonight’s Coates Talent League game.

And just for the record, Noah Yze was among the best players and had 23 disposals (8 kicks, 15 handpasses), 6 tackles and 3 inside 50s and kicked a goal for Oakleigh Chargers in their 26-point win over Sandringham Dragons last night.


I only saw the last quarter but I was pleased (?) that TMac was there. Solid , reliable, did not panic. Hope he did well the first 3 quarters

Hopefully not. I think that Bill could be a good AFL level player if he was given a reasonable go at it

Unfortunately, for us, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was at another club.

yeah, every chance

he is classique 'good, ordinary'

 

AFL website

Mason Cox's second goal with just minutes remaining helped seal a nine-point win for the Magpies over Casey.

The 211cm big man, who was dropped for last week's AFL win over Hawthorn, also had nine disposals, three clearances and 22 hitouts rotating through the ruck.

The whole article is written up as a Filth win. No mention of a Casey player anywhere. AFL is The Filth

  • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

    It's Game Day and the Demons have another opportunity to spoil another team's finals aspirations as they take on the Hawks at the MCG. What do you want to see from the boys today?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.
