So the VFL season starts 2 weeks after the afl season, and ends one week before the last afl round. I wonder if the delayed start will limit the number of new players chosen in the senior team in the first few rounds. DB may prefer to see how Blease, Strauss etc go in the VFL before promoting them.

I doubt whether that would make a difference DDDDC because the players in question will get plenty of opportunity in both MFC and CSFC practice matches including NAB Cup and NAB challenge games. The VFL clubs will have practice matches running through the relevant period so if the players are good enough, they'll get their chances.

Will be interesting to see how many VFL games are scheduled at night this year, or even moved to night games. I know Werribee had two last year (having seen the Werribee v Geelong fixture when Ottens struck form) and apparently they have been scheduled a couple more this season.

I see Casey has a scheduled 7pm twilight game on April 10 against Geelong; Round 1.

Does anyone have a complete fixture available and can they identify if there are other night games scheduled ? Could be an interesting move by the VFL and the VFL clubs to gain extra exposure and gate receipts against interstate games live on TV.

I notice that Casey has a large number of Saturday games this year; usually only the ABC game was on Saturday and the rest of the round was on Sunday. I can't see the ABC doing all of Casey's Saturday games, so is this a change in policy by the VFL?

Cheers for that link JCB.

I think it's an intriguing and interesting move by Werribee and to a lesser extent Casey.

As you alluded to: -

Rd 1 - Casey v Geel - 7pm Sat 1oth April.

Rd 3 - Werribee v Gold Coast - 7pm Sat 24th April

Rd 4 - Werribee v Collingwood - 7pm Sat 1st May

Rd 16 - Werribee v Williamstown - 7pm Sat 7th August.

Obviously, Werribee have an alliance with North Melbourne but share half the AFL players with I think Nth Ballarat. I was fortunate enough to be invited to last years Werribee v Geelong at night down at Chirnside Park out in the sticks. By all reports it was well above their regular home match attendance and they profited well with sales. Now they have 3 night home hames against some opposition with plenty of interest. Gold Coast. Collingwood and their largest rival in Williamstown. I've noticed they have scheduled these games away from the heart of winter too.

Is this something we will see more of in the VFL as long as there is adequate lighting for TV coverage? A new attraction for local footy perhaps ?

It is my understanding that the Nth Melb rookie sensation Majak Daw may also been drawn to play VFL with Werribee and not North Ballarat.

For interest sake these scheduled games clash with the following AFL games: -

Apr 10 - 7:10pm SYD v RICH

Apr 10 - 7:10pm CARL v ESS

Apr 24 - 7:10pm MELB v BRIS

Apr 24 - 7:10pm PORT v STK

May 1 - 7:10pm SYD v BRIS

May 1 - 7:10pm ESS v HAW

Aug 7 - 7:10pm GEEL v COLL

Any news on whether or not Casey are going to be able to play their remaining home games at Casey Fields? Very keen to get to the Casey-v-Gold Coast match in a few weeks and the loss of home ground advantage could really hurt their chances of a top 2 finish.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
