Give the Smithy’s commentator a Specsavers voucher. Jefferson. No it’s Fullarton.

Noah Yze caps off great team goal for Casey.

No sign of Shane McAdam this morning. Despite being selected late withdrawal from side?

Dumb and dumber Casey defence.

Denied free to Casey in G square so blatant. Pin the tail on the umpire.

Rain is persisting down. JEFFO!!!!!

Spazzed!!! Mitch White ripper goal!!!

Umbrellas are up, light rain falling at commencement of second quarter.

Casey two late goals in red mist* time. Scores are equal. *Tommy Sparrow is an angry young man.

Tommy Sparrow absolutely decks a bloke! It’s holding the ball. Verrall goal!!

Yze bursting thru pack sets up Fullarton goal. Against the gale.

Sestan getting amongst it, Casey defence under pressure second GWS goal.

Umpires who can’t bounce get out!

Answer my own question; It’s overcast , very dull and mercifully dry. Wind appears to be a factor leaves boughs and branches moving in the background. Roy George mark but no chocolates.

Looking forward to a festival of football. Noah Yze and Roy George named on the bench. Pickett reporting on the other side of the fence. But whether the weather will wind, wuther and wrain?

Has Gawny lost his ring?

My vote goes to Tom Petty's distant cousin Harrison who didn't break too many hearts.

❤️ 💙 Best debut season at Melbourne since David Schwartz IMHO. Not afraid to go and get his own ball. Will get stronger and the sky is the limit. Great recruitment and very pleased he has committed to the club.

Premiership player tried his ❤️ 💙out today against the odds. Pleased he choose to stick thick.

joeboy - TV dinner tonight Ed Langdon watch; gave a rats Petty - team first performance Roo - inland of giants Billings - game next week Windsor - clearly class above 1066 - says it all Umpires - Margetts finishing school Bookies - got it right

Ghost of a chance with multiple Margetts clones ‘officiating’.

Umpiring fair and equitable? Freo 1 goal Dees 0 Umpires 2

The relief post-treatment was palpable.

DZ performance indicators would need to be tempered by the atrocious conditions. Statisticians wherever they are? were relatively warm and dry ticking up the stats. Whilst the guys on the field slogged it out. Quantitatively there for sure but qualitatively questionable. Disposal efficiency would definitely be revealing. For a slightly built young fella, KB is not afraid to mix it in the packs. Shows a fair bit on the outside too. Will Verrall competed manfully against a bigger bodied opponent in the ruck. Has some nous when directing hit outs. Plus he has the mobility and skill to get involved when the ball is on the move.

The view from the periscope suggested Kynan Brown, Marty Hore, Will Verrall, Blake Howes and Shane McAdam were the better AFL listed contributors. Mitch White, Tyler Edwards, Mitch Szybkowski, Roan Steele and Jack Bell off the Casey list.
