I have seen nothing about the whereabouts of MacDonald & McNamara last weekend. They didn't play with Casey, even though I think both were in Casey's best players the previous week. And, neither have been on the Club's official injury list.

Does anyone know what the story is with these two?

    Joel Mac was one of the best for Casey the week before so he may have been given the week off, and i'm suspecting he could be recalled for the game against Adelaide.

    As for Tommy Mac - i'm as puzzled as you.

    Would be thinking its just a standard rest, in line with the AFL guys. That said don't Casey have a bye this week so I'm surprised both of them weren't playing last week in order to push their chances of getting into the senior team.

    But then if selected against Adelaide they get no rest!

    Have no idea what the rules are in this area does any one know?

    Joel Mac is named first on the bench, always a good pointer to confirm he is likely to play and seems to make sense they pulled him out of the Willy game on a heavy ground that would drain him a bit?

    Could also be the quota rule at Casey? They bought in Fitzpatrick and Jurrah but not sure if two MFC listed boys had to make way and not sure why Tom would be one to have made way. Joel Mac makes a bit more sense.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
