Dean TERLICH

2016 Digest:   Struggled for opportunities in 2015 and when they came, he was unable to make the most of them. Form across half back at VFL level was OK, but presented in great nick for pre-season however an injury slowed his progress a touch. A big season in final year of his contract looms.

2016 NAB Cup:   One of Casey’s best in trial loss to Williamstown but appears well down the pecking order.

2014 Season

Played for : Melbourne

1	StK	Ran down from half back to kick early goal. No great impact.	4
2	WCE	Got plenty of it, did nothing with it. Defensively horrendous.	2
3	GWS	Rightly copped big serve from coach over third term error. Hardly hit a target.	1
4	Carl	Battled away before leg injury ended his day in third term.	3
5	GCS	Needs a spell in VFL desperately. Decision-making and execution not up to standard.	2
6	Syd	Can’t fault effort – tackled and harassed, but disposal still iffy.	6
7	Adel	His run and carry through the midfield a highlight.	6
8	WB	Made few mistakes and tackled hard before being KO’d by Jones.	4
9	Rich	More of a link man as they moved the ball across half back.	4
11	Port	Neither here nor there. Rebounded fairly well, but wasn’t a big factor.	5
12	Coll	OK down back defensively, but still makes the odd nonsensical decision.	5
13	VFL	Fair in VFL after being dropped.	–
14		Senior emergency.
15	WB	Defensive forward on Murphy with limited success. Subbed off with shoulder issue.	2
16	Frem	Started in attack and was one of the Dees few winners roaming up the ground.	6
17	Geel	Sub. On late for four disposals. At least all hit the target.	1
18		Senior emergency.
19	Bris	Good numbers but struggled to push to each contest. Decision making poor.	3
20	VFL	Just 16 touches after being dropped. Not his best.	–
21	VFL	Off injured early and took no further part.	–
22	VFL	Back in some form with 23 possessions at half back.	–

2013 Season

Played for : Melbourne

1	PM	Casey’s best in practice match loss with 33 disp.	–
2	Ess	Forgettable debut result but at least had a go. Not the worst.	4
3	WCE	Had a go and provided some good run with 13 uncontested possessions.	6
4	GWS	Made some mistakes but got to love the way he attacks the ball. Gave his all.	6
5	Bris	Rebounded well off half back but made some costly poor decisions going forward.	6
6	Carl	Made some blues that cost the Dees goals. A bit panicky down back.	3
7	GCS	OK in defence. At least tried to provide something but decision making questionable.	5
8	Rich	Good effort. Took it on all day and was willing to try things for the team.	6
9	Frem	A trier but a panic merchant when he is confronted with pressure.	3
10	Haw	Worked hard out of an under-siege back half – led side in rebound 50s (six).	6
11	Coll	Made some fundamental errors. It’s a bit tougher at this level than SANFL.	3
13	StK	Disposal may be questionable but no questioning his attack on the ball.	6
14	WB	Mopped up in last line of defence time and time again. Star performer.	7
15	Syd	Kept McGlynn goalless and mixed good and bad offensively.	7
16	Geel	Found the going tough with permanently in the Cats forward half. Battled.	3
17	Bris	Can’t fault his endeavour, but went to ground too often in big contests that cost goals.	3
18		Quad.
19	GWS	Mopped up in back half and used the ball much better but not overly influential.	5
20	GCS	Beaten by Brown. Disposal needs a lot of work.	3
21	Frem	Took game on with ball in hand but shown up defensively – not for the first time.	4
22	Adel	Played well across half back starting many offensive attacks.	6
23	WB	Lucky not to suffer neck injury after heavy landing after taking fine mark late in game.	5
