Bummer. I'll be out in Coburg tomorrow morning. Pity it's being played out in Terra Nullius.

 

Spargo returns. Billings and Adams the travelling emergencies.

Looking forward to seeing how Kentfield goes without JvR next to him.


I have always wondered why the Casey Demon logo looks so unnecessarily amateurish. Taking into account that they are second tier compared to the MFC but that logo looks like it was made by some kid in Year 8, circa 2005

becuase I typed like a gorilla with hemorrhoids

Casey by 8 goals. Bonner to have 35 possessions. Campbell to have 52 hitouts. Spargo to kick 5 goals and have 32 possessions against the VFL level part timers. Surely Kentfield kicks at least 4 goals this week.

 

Coburg have been traditional wooden spooners in the VFL often with zero wins or thereabouts for the season.

This year is different with six wins and only one spot behind us.

With our travelling AFL emergencies not available could be a tough match

With Lever’s levitation, Marty’s season ending injury and Adam’s Adelaide adventure. The defence cupboard is looking slightly Xposed. Although a refresh with Bryce, Freeman and Lual is a positive given last week’s struggles in Qld.

Paddy Cross is a welcome return up forward, knows where the goal posts are. What was equally perplexing last week with Will Verrall’s limited time on field, was Taj Woewodin’s extended time on the pine.


Anything could happen in this match. They’ve been pretty active recruiting – though not as active as Casey. They are missing Keogh in ruck but have replaced him with Furphy from Geelong, who has very little impact around the ground. Gentile usually has a big game against us. It would be nice if somebody could stop that – Baldi? Woey??

Bytel, Gentile and Allison up forward are quality players. Baldi tagging Gentile is the most obvious coaching move of the week.

It will never happen

FYI @paul Amy reports

Worth noting that Casey Demons talent Roy George has made a mid-season move in the VFL, joining the busy Port Melbourne.

I wonder if that is because we put a line through his name at Casey or something else.

I really thought he had some tricks.

Edited by Redleg

Strong hands by Kentfield. Playing forward again. Shanked the kick though.


Luker regulation mark and skewed off his boot. Unfortunately.

Riley Baldi Goal!

Windsor playing the guts and looks to have some urgency about his game today.

Big Tom Campbell dominating in the ruck.

Pup Brown busy. Spargo one handed hand pass. Free to Coburg.

Windsor Culley Mentha buzzing around the packs.

Will Verrall some good touches and a mark in defence.

Caleb Windsor snap misses major entry.


Hardie with Casey’s second after a horrible turnover by Coburg.

Edited by Heart Beats True

Jack Henderson intercept.

Pass to Mitch Hardie. Goal!!

Edited by Tarax Club

I mean this in a less narky way than it sounds, genuine question.

What are Ricky Mentha’s strengths supposed to be? Cos he’s been done for pace a couple of times already and whenever I’ve watched him appears to be an iffy kick…

 

Score Casey 2 goals 2 behinds

Coburg 1 goal 1 behind

The umpiring standard at VFL is disgusting. Four free kicks to Coburg when the player clearly leads with their head.

  • 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.
