That's right, you heard it here first. Our very own Doggy Brown has signed on with Casey but I'm also pretty sure he is having a part time role with the Dees and I think he is an ambassador or something the Scorpions next year as well. I'm just not too sure.

Anyway that's what a friend of mine who he played with at West Adelaide told me yesterday. He also said Brown hated playing there this year because of the way Andy Collins ran the club and Brown hated him to bits as well.

A handy pick up for Casey next year I would say! ;)

    There was talk about this a couple of months ago but i hadn't heard anything for a few weeks, good to see it's back on track.

    True. Good people such as N.Brown are invaluable for the Casey Footy Club. Would be great for the alignment.

    Fantastic news.

    Browny is one of those players who, regardless of their on-field success, leaves a really positive lasting mark on a football club.

    Having him back involved will be fantastic for everyone. Our young players will do well to follow his work ethic and attitude.

    I will never forget his reaction when we lost against Essendon in Daniher's last game as coach.

    Andy Collins wanted to take over Sandy in 1998...he wanted to get a group of his own people to run the club....maybe he's doing something along those lines at West Adelaide...

    Wonder if Neaves and Ferguson will follow Nathan Brown back to Victoria

    While I have loved Dogga's attitude and spirit at MFC (not always his disposal) I hope he comes back as a net benefit to a younger playing list. I hope he is not the start of Casey being an "old boys" side for ex MFC players that are no longer AFL standard. I dont want Dogga's selection to block the opportunities for young aspiring MFC players.

    I certainly dont want Neaves and Ferguson at Casey.....and no I certainly dont want that "team" player Saunter there either!

    I really doubt it would happen, but I'd be spewing if Neaves or Ferguson signed on for Casey. Ideally we'd want as few people holding up the 'rare' spots like the ruck or key position defence as possible.

    Brown's another story though. He's a dime-a-dozen runner who most likely wouldn't be holding up the spot for anyone worth their salt, and he's a favourite son of the club who oozes leadership and would die for his teammates. I'd welcome him with open arms.

    Bloody brilliant, i had so much admiration for him. He just constantly worked his butt off every time he went out onto the ground and i think it's fair to say he got every inch he could out of the talent given to him.

    It'll be great to have our young guns learning from him at Casey.

    With you 100% Rhino.

    Brown is a bit of an exception though. Will be good to see him about!

    Brown should fit right in playing with players who match his skill and ability.

    lol.

    But will they match his determination and winning the hard ball?

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
