Robert Heatley Stand / Re: VFL Rd 7 2026 Carlton vs Casey at Casey

As I saw it

Absolutely demolished them after quarter time. Out ran them, out tackled them, punished them on the turnover. Everything you want from  a team. If only it could translate to the seniors.

Thought Reidy was BOG. Just smahed his opponent and played like he was Luke Jackson.
Acres got plenty of the ball and kicked a couple but still has disposal issues with hand and foot IMO
Thought Lord was good across the whole game
Hogg probably had his best game for the year as did a lot of others
As I said previously both Moir and Ison have a lot of potential and got better as the game went on.
Derksen kicked 5 but I just don't know if he's an AFL standard forward
Lewis Young was a rock in defense but his disposal is nail-biting stuff
Cody Walker, gee i wish we could play him now. Just a jet
Basically everyone contributed but if i had to pick a couple for our needs it would be Moir and Ison. Speculative selections but after Kemps kicking last night worth the punt

Acres was a standout.
Ison is great with ball in hand. Smart.
Moir benefits from being put in amongst the action. Forces him to work harder.
Walks2 is just so poised. Something special.
Boyd and Young down back were generals.
Reidy had a day out in the ruck.
Lord, Campo... solid.
Derks... how can you complain about 5gls!
Byrne disposal is just so good.
Teacher's pet did his bit.
Darcy Hogg was probably the best of the VFL listed boys... just keeps improving.

Hard to get a read on that, but pleased to have put the foot on the throat and demolished them on their dung heap.

Derkson kicked 5 goals.

Worth remembering he had an afl quality opponent in tom macdonald.  Not sure hes at the peak of his powers but still can only beat who you play against.

Thought ison and acres were really impressive.  Lord too.

There was a game for Vic Metro last year where they got flogged, Ison had about 5 kicks - he either scored a goal or was the root cause of the team scoring with every kick.  His ball use can be first class, even though his draft dossier read "kicking inconsistent".  If that wasn't a red herring I've never seen it.

Just opened up on Casey that last 5-10 min. I think Reidy has dominated. Lots of contributions. Ben Campo has got it a bit but his kicking is average. Young has been solid down back but he continues to kick woefully. Acres getting a bit of it but like Young butchers the ball. Kicked a barrel just before halftime. Derksen was good in the 1st but went real quiet that quarter. I'll just say this.  Ison and Moir both have something, I just wish they could get the pill a bit more. Hope we can persist with these two because unlike the others, these guys CAN kick the ball
