At quarter time it's Casey 5.0.30 leading Frankston 1.2.8 in perfect conditions at Casey Fields. Michael Newton kicked two goals. Aussie quiet so far.

Casey Reserves had a big win:

Casey Scorpions 5.2.32 6.8.44 7.9.51 11.11.77

Frankston 0.2.3 1.3.9 3.6.24 4.6.30

Ten minutes into the second quarter Casey leads 7.0.42 to Frankston 3.4.22.

Jordan Gysberts is picking up loads of possessions. Colin Garland is blanketing his opponent. I'll be back soon with all the MFC player numbers for those who are going to turn up later.

Quick goals to Stockdale and Healy give the home side a 4 goal lead.

I would say Garland's day is over. He hasn't returned since half time. I think it was planned that he only plays half a game.

On the other hand Aussie has just gone off. He went for a tackle and came down touching his right hamstring. It didn't look too serious but watch this space.

Casey 12.1.73 to Frankston 4.6.30 at the 9 minute mark. Third Term.

Its clear this guys body is not cut out for AFL football at this level. I think we should all start to add him to our list of hard luck stories for the MFC and hope that someone like Maric will step up in his place over the next few years.

Three Quarter Time: Casey 13.6.84 to Frankston 4.7.31

The Scorpions are in control although Frankston will have the advantage of the wind in the last quarter. Matthews and Wall doing well for the home side which looks to have picked up a handy recruit in forward Luke McDonald. Rhys Healey had a quarter and seems to have improved his disposal.

9 minutes into the last term. Casey 91-37.

Gysberts wracking up the possessions.

Juice has a kick for goal coming up from an angle. Pushed OOB.

fitzpatrick just took a nice pack mark and goaled after receiving a 50 m penalty just before the siren.

Great effort KC---Very much appreciated. If you could find out how Wona pulled up- I am sure we all would very much appreciate that.

Great job KC, very much appreciated by those of us who couldn't get to the game. Any news and views in due course on best players for Casey, and (if you can get it) how Wanna and the other Dees pulled up fitness-wise, would be great. Thanks again!!

Aussie's tackling in the first half was brilliant and is something we need desperately in our F50. I don't think Maric will ever be as good a tackler.

Good to hear. How many did McDonald end up kicking?

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
