Ah what a shame, I've already made plans to go to the G with mates to see the Bombers and Blues game. Would have been great to head down to watch this one.

Good luck to all the Dees boys.

No Blease???

I reckon they will manage Sam very conservatively. If he is fit I suspect he might play a half or a bit more with Casey ressies.

Shattered by the night game. Was planning to go down Saturday as well.

How about that forward line, the Spencil at FF and the Stefan Martin Experience in a pocket. Imagine if we got Juice down there as well.

A big welcome to up to half a dozen possible "newcomers" to the Casey Scorpions line up. Five VFL listed players could be making their debuts tomorrow night plus another who had one game last year as a TAC Cup "guest" under the 23rd player rule:    

* Cam Purdy 20.06.1989 191cm 90kg (East Ringwood) - comes to the club with a very good reputation in the eastern suburban competition as a versatile key position player.

   

* Mitch Dowse  24.09.1991 176cm 77kg (Heyfield) - slippery customer from Gippsland Power who had one game for Casey last year as a 23rd player.

   

* Matt Fieldsend 14.12.1985 178cm 79kg (De La Salle) - shared the honours last year for VAFA A Section best and fairest (with a De La Salle teammate!).

* McDonald Luke 29.04.1990 195cm 92kg (Eastern Ranges) - key position forward from Eastern Ranges who led the 2009 TAC Cup goalkicking.

 

* Danny Nicholls 02.03.1987 177cm 80kg (Rowville) - former Collingwood listed player who has impressed as a busy small over the pre season.

* Plummer Ricky 11.06.1991 175cm 73kg (Peninsula Grammar/Mount Eliza) - clever small man could force his way into the team for round 1.

I am amazed McKenzie would be named for Casey, (i'm aware he is named for Melbourne as well). But given his form at AFL level I would have thought he wouldn't be available for Casey.

I guess we'll see what happens tomorrow, but if he lines up for Casey I'll be very dissapointed.

Everyone named on the extended bench for the seniors has been named for Casey also. Therefore, 4 of those named for Casey will actually play for Melbourne, I will bet my house that McKenzie plays on Sunday.

If he's 100% going to play for Melbourne, I don't see the wisdom in naming him on the field for Casey. Not a big deal at all, just seems odd.

confused how mitch duncan from the cats is in the centre line for both the vfl and afl match

Thanks to some of my spies from down at Geelong, the Cats' side has now been updated. It doesn't look anywhere near as formidable as the original published side which had 17/18 AFL listed players.

    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.
