Any news on when and where next week is?

Saturday September 4

Seniors 2nd Semi Final

Casey Scorpions vs Northern Bullants at TEAC Oval 2:10pm

Would have to be a big change for next week. Please no Bennel he was terrible!

No chance of that because Bennell is no longer eligible for the finals now that Melbourne's season has ended. The bad news is that Matty Warnock is also no longer available.

Bennell played as though his season was already finished. Casey played one short with Bennell who didn't get many possessions but never looked like getting close to the ball or putting any pressure on the opposition ball carrier. Warnock will be a loss though. Was probably Casey's best.

Bennell was nothing but horrible. Terrible output from a player that has more than that to offer. Luckily for him his next game is not for 6 mths otherwise he would be a fair way back in playing for the Dees.

He is better than that and needs to show it, whether with Melbourne or Casey.

I believe that Aussie is eligible to play but wonder about him. He looked stuffed at the end of yesterday's game although things will be much easier paced.

I like to think he has been carrying a niggle.

Gee, he and Bennell can go missing across that half forward line.

I spoke to Dean Bailey about Bennell the other day, his answer was that he wasn't going to get a game in Adelaide because they thought he was running out of steam/form after a long season, but they persisted but dropped him this week, I assume Brad Gotch gets some say in who he wants to play, unless he wasn't given a choice.....

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
