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! ;)

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.

Neaves is heading off to overseas for the year.. lost the passion for footy during the year after a fall out with andy collins

Andy Collins sounds like a fantastic bloke! Sure we can't entice him down to Casey..? :P

With you 100% Rhino.

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

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
