VFL Rd 17: Northern Blues vs Casey Demons

[laj]

Fightback's on! We kicked the first point of the half...lol.

The bottom line is that our depth is almost non existent, two or three key injuries and our seniors and seconds are both sunk.
We've still got a lot of work ahead of us but most of us were well aware of how far back we were coming from.

Injuries we have in the seniors, which is plenty, will always hurt the NBs but we lost a few regular NBs too. Likes of Kerr are out for the year.

Graham getting rubbed out didn't help either, but our depth is poor.

Three quarter time, Casey 11.4, NB's 4.9.
We won a quarter!
Byrne and Macredie playing well, goals to Korchek and a couple of kids in Declase and Thorpe.

Jaksch went on the plane to Perth, so there wasn't a lot on the field today.


Considering the difference in players we put on the field, you can see why we have struggled lately.

However we are still trying hard. 33 points down.

We lost by 37 points when Bolger missed after the siren.

Casey Demons  2.0  3.3  4.8  5.9 (39)
Northern Blues  3.2  5.4  6.6  7.7 (49)

That is a pretty good effort from a very undermanned side.

DISPOSALS: Palmer 30, L. Russell 28, Stevens 23, Wilson 20, O'Shea 19, Declase 19, Byrne 18.

From the sounds of things, Palmer played his best game for us. We also had a LOT of shots today, including a minimum of 4 posters.
They had 10 scores after half time, while we had 19 scores.

Not a bad effort with the side we had on the park.
