Conditions today were appalling but Lynden Dunn with eight goals was sensational. Didn't miss and was solid throughout.

Box Hill goaled on the siren to get within 14 points but it was the wettest I've ever seen at Casey. Had to make a quick getaway because the car park was getting inundated and the iPhone battery was threatening to erupt like an Iceland volcano if I would have kept it open.

So Dunn in for Watts next week?

Thats the no brainer of the week. Dont know why Dunn has not been used as a forward that's what he came to the Demons as when drafted.

It is not as thought we have six good forwards forcing him up the ground!

Geez, it's like beating my head against a wall. Dunn should have been playing forward for the last 3 years!

I'm still at a loss why we dropped him.

Wouldnt it be Dunn for Miller instead of Watts?

After yesterdays performance there are 5 spots available.

The only one of our forwards who earnt his place was Green.

Dunn should get any of the other five spots he wants.

He was dropped due to poor form! People must forget how bad he was playing.

He was rightly dropped, but he was getting to the right spots but panicking and not finishing off good work. 8 goals indicates that he's found some confidence, lets just hope he can bring it to the big league.

Dunn needs to play as a forward for the remainder of the year. Inside the 50! Full forward or in the pocket as a leading player!

His career is on the line at the Dee's. Our luck we will delsit him and another club will pick him up and play him forward where he will do well.

Dunn IN

Miller OUT

Dunn deserves a chance forward before Miller & Newton. With Jurrah & Pettard out. This is hs time! Versatile player too. Just needs to be given time forward. I think he is a real trier. More than what I can say about some of the others in the senior team at the moment.

Still not sure why Mckenzie didnt play at the "G" yesterday would have thought match ups and conditions would have suited him. Great too see him in the Best and Dunn has done everything right for a recall good on him others need to look at him and learn as he is a bit of a whipping boy!

Versatile?? More a master of none who had a day out at Casey.

A week ago all these know alls about Dunn were very quiet. He has been a terrible and repeated disappointment at AFL level. We have not got a functioning forward line and after a full pre season Dunn cant nail a position in the side. Hmmm

For 8 goals at Casey he deserves his opportunity (once more) to grasp a role at AFL level. I did not see the performance but I hope it is a sign that he has turned the corner and not a demonstration of the expanding gap between the AFL and the VFL.

But after six years and 60 games on the list, I have yet to see any aspects that suggest he is more than a trier who is borderline AFL at best.

A poor return to date on pick#15 in 2004.

Deanox for the win! B)

Is Dunn a key position tall? No

Is Bate? I think not.

The only reason why Watts is believed to be a Key position is because he is 196cm. Truth be told, he plays like a Forward flank for a VFL reserves team.

I noticed early in this thread there was a mention that Jack Fitzpatrick was injured in the reserves. I haven't been able to find any more detailed information on this anywhere at all, so am wondering if anyone here might know what the extent of the injury was and how well he was performing up until the time he left the ground. Thanks in advance.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
