    Bring in the Killer to play on the same ground as Nicnat...

    Oh. And no resting Jamar. All Watts will need to do is rack up half a dozen kicks. :D

    I was kind of hoping to get a team like Geelong or Collingwood, but I think we're a good chance to notch a win next week, as West Coast are yet to leave WA this pre-season.

    We should aim to play our best (and fittest) 22 in this match as preparation for Round 1.

    Disappointing we have to play another interstate side that's 3 from 4 a bit rough i reckon.

    Plan to get along to Casey, I had a really great time at the intra club. Hope there's a big attendence and we end

    the pre season on a positive note with a win and gain some confidence. I reckon we might see our virtual Round 1 team

    have a hit out.

    Why is that a bit rough?? There's no gate receipts in pre-season, what's the difference?? If anything this is good. WC aren't usually as strong in Melb, perhaps some chance for a win.

    This should be a really good game. WC are in a fairly similar place to us with their list, perhaps a year or two ahead. I expect our season to more or less mirror theirs in '09. It will be great to see how we handle them, especially given that they have a pretty strong (physically) midfield, so our young guys might well struggle. We also match up pretty well on their forwards, although I'm still worried about our small backs, and LeCras is just the guy to show them up.

    I always get a bad feeling when the folks on Demonland start to get cocky.

    we will destroy them and go into the real stuff with a bit of confidence!

    Crumbs... first practice match of our local footy comp will get in the way of going to Casey. I've really enjoyed the trips out in the sticks to watch footy at Casey.

    Me too. IMHO when we click together as a team we'll be competitive against most teams this year, but no point in getting ahead of ourselves on the basis of one praccy match. Just like there was no point in calling the undertakers after the NAB vs Freo. And still a bit of a concern that we had plenty of chances to win it in the last but couldn't put it away. But it's great to see the improvement.

    Does anyone have directions/information on getting to the ground from Cranbourne station? Is there a bus that takes you to or near the ground?

    There is a bus "TrainLink" which meets every train at the Cranbourne Station and travels to Cranbourne East. The bus drops you at the new aquatic complex, and there is then an easy 700 meter walk to Casey Fields.

    Thanks mate. Much appreciated. I know where the aquatic centre is in relation to the ground so that info really helps.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
