Marty Hore is a beacon of hope in a stormy sea. Crunching tackle and holding the ball free.

Marty Hore another timely intercept. Mitch White free! Working inside a telephone box. Fullarton free on i50. Terrific goal!

First quarter for Casey reminiscent of Monty Python Four Yorkshiremen skit. As the goals piled on… “Luxury, sheer Luxury”. Well we can always look on the bright side. Casey with the breeze next quarter.

Welcome to Friday’s Festival of Footy. Hopping a cloven hoof can spoil the party somewhere between the kennel and the ‘g. To re-assure those on the outer limits of the Demon periphery (eg. Milwaukee’s finest) Gerry and your correspondent are ringside at the TJ Whitten oval (virtually) resplendent in the afternoon sunshine sitting in deckchairs. Is that an omen? We’ll have to wait and see. Go Demons!

A few 'observations' if I may from WCW's videos this AM. 1. T'was a lovely brisk morning in Old Melbourne town. 2. Tommy Sparrow has learnt his lesson and after an 'appropriate' timeout wishes to be re-admitted to class. 3. During the kicking drill those that failed to hit their target were required to do five or so push ups. Bring back old school master Mr Blight and have the recalcitrants do push ups "live" during game time. Humiliation builds resilience or was that avoidance? 4. Jack Viney gave the #3 guernsey a new cachet. Takes no prisoners on field or at training. 5. That WCW be nominated for a Walkley award for services to Footy photo-journalism. To go with her other 'gongs' and her backstage pass.

Ed's choice 70's Rock 'n Roll anthem absolute Bowie classic. Rather 'hear' that on the 'G PA than being aurally assaulted by Hell's Bells or whatever else is going around . One match at a time "We can be heroes just for one day". * Any folk interested in the song's genesis go here https://www.bowiebible.com/albums/heroes/

Sunday September 18th 1994 was a grand day at the footy. Garry kicked a lazy ten, David Schwarz running amok, two goals and twelve marks, Glenn Lovett delivering the Sherrin lace out at will. Bulldogs sent packing, back to the kennel with their tails between their legs. Woof Woof

Mono he appeared much more comfortable this game than his Casey Demons debut. 7 tackles indicates he is willing to get his hands dirty and apply defensive pressure to his opponents. 8 disposals seems like a limited contribution but he probably had a lower ToG% than most. He was covering space forward of centre, HFF? Two scoring chains he was prominently involved with resulted in Casey goals. When he gathered the ball and burst thru the pack to deliver a composed foot pass to Will Verrall. That was a match highlight. Looks physically bigger than Dad, covers the ground well and he appears to have a fair portion of the Yze footy IQ. Will need to wait to see if he has any of Adem’s X’ factor. IMM a definite father son prospect.
