Half way thru qt. Effectively five goal lead.

Umpire get [censored] glasses.

Frost goal shot barely a point.

Sinnema Show getting game time.

Casey pressure still omniscient.

Great team defence lead by Jed.

20 minute ⚠️

Adams again debut has given him confidence.

We’re 22 minutes in and Casey 25 points in front.

Box Hill now missing their shots.

Hawks doing everything but kick goals

We've stopped

Reeves 😆 Hawks playing hookball x4

25 minutes in. So far 6 behinds this qt.

Keep going Casey!

Gee Poor Laurie there, was out and free

Great win. Well done dees.

Tom Freeman great defensive mark.

Luker now in defence.

Siren!!!

Spoiler alert!

Great win against the ladder leaders!! Surging into finals

one of the best wins demons have had all year, against the formerly ladder-leading hawks

12.16.88 to 9.11.65

a dominant performance after quarter time

final stats:

my best, based upon stream viewing:

6: billings
5: spargo
4: bonner
3: laurie
2: tholstrup
1: fullarton

it feels strange to say this but... fullarton should be perservered with, as a tall defender option

he's been great the last month of footy

Dim Sinnema is a player

Bring your girlfriend!

The last 10 minutes were horrible, totally outplayed by the Hawks who couldn't hit the side of a barn with their goal kicking. Too much handballing just to get rid of pressure, just handballing to a team mate under more pressure. But continual great defense by the back 6, and some class from Spargo, Billings, Kolt and Laurie.

Makes for an interesting finals series.

Casey were never seriously challenged Mboy38.

Land of the giraffes down there. Long way from ball drop to boot. And it showed.

Plus the handball while not perfect busted open the game for a stirring Casey victory.

Agree re: final series

Sinnema is class and will be a player, can't wait to see him develop.

I still think we should offer Bonner a rookie spot to release Salem or Bowey up the field.

Good win!

Kolt - showing something and also showing why he just needs to play consistent footy in a team with the same role.

Billings - just a VFL specialist

I think Johnson is what we need in our AFL side, for now.

Kentfield - coming along nicely, not a great game but kicked 3 somehow

Sinnema - showed more than enough

Mentha - just needs to be a little harder but that's just nit picking

Laurie - I can't understand why he can't translate this to AFL, he might just be another Billings

Fullarton - has made himself as a backman(VFL)

Spargo - Keep doing that and you will force yourself back into the AFL

Brown & Woey - same every week

Jefferson - interesting game, not horrible but we need him marking

Frankston and Lions drew, meaning I think we go to 5th if Willy wins and 6th if Tigers win, but we are out of wildcard and have a week’s rest before finals and Casey get a couple of players back like Culley and Howes.

Huge win..

Go Casey!

Great win

There was a draw at Frankston between Casey’s neighbour and the Brisbane Lions which was enough to assure the Demons of at least sixth place on the ladder after they won their fifth game on the trot against the ladder leaders. This means they get a week’s break (or another bye if you like 😄) and a home elimination final.

If Williamstown can beat Richmond, Casey will finish fifth!

Now let’s find a place to hide Toby SInnema away for a couple of months.

AND a home final, I presume.

And against battered wild-carders?

Sinemma was gold class

Fantastic result- l had to leave at 1\2 time and just got home.

It was a perfect day - sun shining and no wonder.

Guess who was there ?

The Ghosty person.

She didn’t know you could go onto the ground at 1\4 time !

But she didn’t need any encouragement once l told her !
