Casey's backline is dominating,Joel Macdonald, Nicholson and Jetta have probably Casey's bes but all the Dees have done well so far. Casey is moving the ball very well and are putting good pressure on North Ballarat.

Ah, Sensaaational! it's great to hear Jetta's stepping Up to the plate!

Is he starting in the Centre Square, Melon?

Made the trip out to the rat, fair hike but it's a good game if you're a dees fan. Social club isn't too bad either free scones at half time!

All the Melbourne players doing well, I'll highlight Warnock who's been particularly solid and Strauss has got the possession up, had 25 or so at 3 quarter time. Jetta got the wind knocked out of him but flashing in and out, Blease has also had more of the ball but his only trick seems to be running through the lines and kicking it long. Joel Mac has been a little quiet.....

good game though Casey up by 57 at 3 q time

I think Jetta's stepping up a gear.

Blease, I think will take at least half a season, from what I've seen, to 'Grow' his game. thats just for him to make alterations. I don't expect much from him this Year, except maybe just a teaser for him, toward the end of the year.

This is why I'd like to see Strauss in the Dee team, sooner rather than Later. On the wing. Blooding youngsters.

Big win to the Scorpions who kept last year's premiers down to just eight goals on their own ground.

The last quarter was a dour affair with only one goal kicked in blustery conditions but Casey ran out easy winners by 56 points and it could have been a greater margin had the forwards found their targets late in the game.

Ricky Petterd with four goals and Matty Bate with three were good up forward and local boys Dan Nicholson and Lucas Cook were among the best in a great homecoming for the youngsters. Sam Blease played his best game yet for Casey.

Casey Scorpions 4.3.27 10.7.67 16.9.105 16.16.112

Final score:

Casey: 16.16 - 112

North Ballarat: 8.8 - 56

Wasteful last term, much? 7 behinds, to 1.1...

Good win, though - last years champs now 0-2...

Petterd 4, Bate 3, Lindsay 2, Stockdale, Jetta, Lawrence, Nicholson, EVans, Cook and McShane the goalkickers.

Best news all week right there, especially Nicholson, Blease and Cook. New boys starting to step up.

Watts and Dunn will need to be solid tomorrow with Bate and Petterd, not to mention Newton, breathing down their necks.

Interesting times. Thanks for the info.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
