Demonland

MAYDAY by KC from Casey There’s not very much that can be said of the lacklustre performance of the Casey Demons at Avalon Airfield Oval against the Werribee Tigers on Saturday other than that it was woeful. There were however, a few small rays of hope for Demon fans, the main one being the display of defender Steven May from injury and to a lesser extent, Kade Kolodjashnij’s return after two months recovering from the effects of concussion. May was in stellar form down back, taking intercept marks, disposing of the ball meticulously and bringing teammates into the game. He finished with 22 disposals and 9 marks. The Demons gave away a lot to get the former Gold Coast skipper and it would be a surprise if he didn’t return to the AFL this weekend against Collingwood. His former teammate Kolodjashnij was less spectacular but he showed some flashes of the brilliance of the early years of his career up north. The other Queensland connection was provided by Corey Wagner who picked up 25 possessions and worked hard all day. Jim Munro is having an excellent season and he was one of the few who didn’t let his team down. His strength and his tackling were a feature. Congratulations to veteran Mitch Gent who played his 100th game and has been a real stalwart of the club. The game also saw the debut of Melbourne mid-season draft pick Kyle Dunkley who started slowly but showed some very good signs for the future. However, there was little else about which to be enthused by the Casey Demons’ 7.11.53 to the Werribee Tigers 13.10.88. That score line flattered Casey which never looked like getting close after the home side stamped themselves on the game in the latter stages of the first quarter and kept the Demons to one goal in each of the second and third terms. Casey’s next assignment is against traditional rival Collingwood at Casey Fields on Sunday. 2019 Hard Yakka / Totally Workwear VFL Casey Demons 2.2.14 3.4.22 4.8.32 7.11.53 Werribee Tigers 4.3.27 7.4.46 9.8.62 13.10.88 Goals Casey Demons Bedford Chandler Keilty Kolodjashnij Lefau Munro Quigley Werribee Tigers Augerinos 3 Henderson Riccardi 2 Barlow Bennett Brew Clayton Maishman Munro Best Casey Demons May C Wagner W Collis Chandler Munro Werribee Tigers Brew Coughlan Hanson Augerinos Hebron Clayton Statistics Toby Bedford 1 goal 3 kicks 3 handballs 6 disposals 2 marks 4 tackles 35 dream team points Heath Briggs 5 kicks 4 handballs 9 disposals 2 marks 1 tackles 33 dream team points Jaxon Briggs 1 behind 3 kicks 5 handballs 8 disposals 2 marks 4 tackles 43 dream team points Kade Chandler 1 goal 7 kicks 2 handballs 9 disposals 5 marks 3 tackles 56 dream team points Wayne Collis 9 kicks 1 handballs 10 disposals 4 marks 2 tackles 46 dream team points Kyle Dunkley 2 behinds 9 kicks 2 handballs 11 disposals 3 marks 3 tackles 51 dream team points Tom Freeman 5 kicks 2 handballs 7 disposals 4 marks 2 tackles 33 dream team points Mitch Gent 10 kicks 6 handballs 16 disposals 3 marks 4 tackles 64 dream team points Jack Hutchins 6 kicks 4 handballs 10 disposals 3 marks 3 tackles 38 dream team points James Jordon 8 kicks 4 handballs 12 disposals 2 marks 7 tackles 66 dream team points Declan Keilty 1 goal 1 behind 4 kicks 4 handballs 8 disposals 3 marks 2 tackles 7 hit outs 31 dream team points Kade Kolodjashnij 1 goal 8 kicks 4 handballs 12 disposals 5 marks 5 tackles 74 dream team points Mykelti Lefau 1 goal 1 behind 4 kicks 1 handballs 5 disposals 2 marks 24 dream team points Nick Lowden - 3 dream team points Steven May 16 kicks 6 handballs 22 disposals 9 marks 1 tackles 92 dream team points James Munro 1 goal 1 behind 9 kicks 9 handballs 18 disposals 2 marks 14 tackles 114 dream team points Braydon Preuss 1 behind 7 kicks 2 handballs 9 disposals 3 marks 1 tackle 43 hit outs 76 dream team points Aidan Quigley 1 goal 5 kicks 3 handballs 8 disposals 3 marks 4 tackles 52 dream team points Cory Stockdale 7 kicks 3 handballs 10 disposals 2 marks 3 tackles 43 dream team points Anthony Vella 8 kicks 8 disposals 1 mark 1 tackle 31 dream team points Corey Wagner 1 behind 20 kicks 5 handballs 25 disposals 8 marks 10 tackles 130 dream team points Liam Wale-Buxton 1 kick 1 disposal 1 tackle 17 hit outs 18 dream team points Mitchell White 17 kicks 4 handballs 21 disposals 5 marks 6 tackles 100 dream team points

Lucky no AFL officials were in my living room tonight.

When does the contract with the NT end?

6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 please.

Can we take a chest mark on the forward 50.

Jeffy [censored] himself. Twice.

Playing for Casey.

We're done.

Commentators starting to barrack for the Crows.

OMac useless.

Spargo has been much better this week.

Walker just threw that. My God.

OMac getting killed tonight.

Our forwards can get manhandled but you can't breathe on theirs.

Shut up Lynch you sook.

He looks cooked.

We're going to lose this one. My MFCSS is tingling.

These misses could be costly.

JKH has to go at year's end.

They are allowed to dispose of the ball any way they want.

I like the coaches indigenous polos.

How do our forwards not get the same protection that theirs do?

Will be good for the run. Been very quiet.

Jones loves a captain's goal off one step.

Wish our forwards got that Silver service from the umpires.
