loving BT today... massive change of heart!
-
bruce another turn over...
How many bad bounces have there been today? terrible from the umps today!!
-
Some tired play at the end of that quarter. Not sure we will have the legs in the last.
Bennel looking great. Jones going well and morton and davey should take every kick in!!!
PJ is doing really well in the ruck also martin lurks very well.
Dunn getting smashed by hunter, and again didn't go back hard enough and the eagles player marked.
-
Bate having his best game in 2 years (except 2nd half against Freo last year)
WOuldn't be hard with his recent form but i don't think he is having a great game. Still not sure he deserves a game next week.
Robbo and petterd need to lift..
-
Jones looks great, he looks so much quicker and skills are getting better and better.
Bennel looks sensational.
Almost feel sorry for sylvia, three times was in the clear yet mclean kicks it at his toes then bruce puts one on his head..
PJ is doing really well on cox. Has good hands for a big bloke.
Will be tough to win with 2 blokes down!!
-
Rivers never to kick out again!!!
Disappointing for all our dominance we barely scored... TWo umpiring things, the first bounce. Why was that not called back? and the boundary umpire who was standing next to the ball when it was over!!!
THought PJ did really well. Moloney loves to have crack! And morton is going to be a gun...
-
Yeah it's a weekly show, if it was anyone else but hutchy it would be great!! Missed most of it.. did they mention butchers 6 yesterday?
-
i don't see why they would be promoted...
The players on he LTI Jamar for which spencer was promoted made sense, but with blease who was playing a game anyway means no need to promote anyone... To elevate mckenzie would be strange as he hasn't done enough to deserve a game. And Valenti probably the only rookie deserving but why promote him for meesen? just as i write this i see on the afl website it has been confirmed and wona out for six!!!
-
The one thing about the melee was that the umpires just walked off... with many people yelling at the umpires to do something they said it wasn't there problem...
Now one question who's job is it? i bet it wouldnt have got out of hand if they hung around and threatened to lay reports!!!
-
it is far too low.. another thing that annoys me is the scoreboard, or now its just an advertisment screen, all it plays are ads.. rarely highlights or stats!!
-
he was definately having a shot, had a few players open but he couldn't get it to then without giving them a hospital handpass so took it on himself to have a shot.... was a absolute floater but it was struck well enough on his wrong side and went through. which i think is a great effort considering the pressure on him
-
i also have to feel a little sorry for him. Just watching the geelong game and seeing robbo miss easy shots and blow one out on the full embarrasingly but we still love him yet juice has been banished and bagged relentlessly...
i know robbo has a few more runs on the board but he still thinks his return was more important than the game
-
Get rid of:
Sylvia - Would probably be a servicable player at a better club where he can flash in and out of the play but we can't wait 3-4 years for the list to get to his comfort level. Trade him
PJ - He tries but just isn't up to it. Delist.
Bell - Shocking awareness. Trade to SA?
Possibles:
Dunn - Thought we had a real find when he fist started playing but he just seems a bit lost now. Trade bait?
Bate - Ditto. Wish he had a right side. He just seems too predictable and not sure of his role.
Jamar - I doubt getting rid of 2 rucks will happen but if we could pick up a discard ruckman with a couple of years left in them I'd cut him from the list. (King or Ottens type trades springs to mind)
Miller - Tries his guts out but might be a good trade to GC next year.
Bartram - see Miller except I am not sure on the trade possibilities.
lost me when you said we could trade dunn??? who would we get from southern football league third division that will help us? this is where dunn should be playing!
-
Did do a lot wrong and not a lot right but will be better for the run. Hard for guys coming in after missing early games in the year.. The positives were he kept finding himself in the right spots... and we wee playing geelong
-
Front page of HUN tomoro, a current affair story and womens groups find another reason to get upset over footballers!!!!
Everything in moderating you will find is good for you!!! Players need fat for energy to burn!!!
-
Dunn bashing to much? i'll bash him everytime he squibs at a contest, so i still have at least three up my sleave from today...
Dunn and bate must go...
BAte for a half forward just cannot take a overhead mark... maybe promote hughes to play the lead up forward, is better over head, just his fitness at the moment from comming back from injury.
To replace dunn either grimes or maybe bail... or promote valenti he has worked hard enougha nd played well enough to deserve a call up.
Whelan if fit has to play is a gun... and wona still a couple of weeks away
-
i agree with that all.. many good points!!
with newton 5, watts 3, and hughes 3, there is a lot of pressure for bate and petterds spot!
Also think you missed dunn a lot of niggle and pushing and shoving yet has little courage foinf back with the flight!
I also think frawley is becoming something special, looks good in defence and has great run out of defence!
-
Geeze, what do you expect from him?
8 tackles.. i thought he had a good crack and second half was very good..
surely people will start to turn from col and realise dunn has massive courage issues and is hopeless. Bate has had 5 shockers in a row but seems to be a walk up start....
Don't get me started on bruce.. typically butchered the ball, was laughable in the third against johnson and his kick to maric that nearly had him killed was terrible!!
-
Maric good?????
Was selfish at times and has little courage... will need to improve a lot...
Dunn's lack of courage and footy smarts is terrible and bate should suffer newtons fate surely... he has had 5 shockers and newton had one!!!
-
i for one will admit i mark valenti quite hard, but today i thought he was very good. Up against afl standard midfield in cousins cotchin and simmonds i thought he was terrific!
From being at the ground and no knowing the stats. It is also hard to tell who was who!
But newton was very good, missed some easy one but was the difference. Also Hughes' third quarter changed the game and put us on top...
Watts was good, great goal but it was a floater! Still looks a bit like a schoolboy amongst men.
Wona struggled and got some close attention.
Mcnamara was good, in the game a lot but skills let him down at time..
It was a fair effort for the forwards to kick as many as they did with the delivery they received. a few of the casey guys just butcher the ball or they run to far then have nothing to kick to...
-
Good question! Maybe we leave Spencer in when Jamar is due back in a few?? Maybe Valents gets one last chance for a crack. Sounds like he has been going well of late in the magoos!
If jamar is due back then we dont need spencer, with meeson doing well, jamar to come back in and PJ will do better at VFL than spencer...
With blease not in the main side i would prefer trying one of the untried rookies. Out of hughes and healey i think... healey looks ok but is only playing in the twos... hughes is still coming back from injury but is playing well at casey..
-
yeah it is the t.v game, some might guides say another game collingwood vs ballarat or something but that ground was unavailable or something!!
-
I hope someone takes a camera down there, So we can watch some highlights on youtube.
You can only watch his Under 18's highlights so many times.
It's the ABC match of the round so it will be on ABC live...
-
Just read on the Afl website that Jack Watts will play in the Casey Scorpions firsts on Saturday ... against Coburg and Ben Cousins.
GAME DAY IN PERTH
in Melbourne Demons

Would be very interested in why you think robertson is still a very good footballer?
Think he is really struggling, twice he couldn't kick the ball 50 metres. I know he is still only a few games back but he is working against age...
It wasnt a 50 metre against cox because when he threw the ball dunn ran further back. Was a correct decision.
