Heard a rumour that Jake Spencer has done his knee and needs a reco... Did he pick up an injury at Casey yesterday?

Not saying that it is a definite but it's a pretty strong rumour going around..

Bright side, Gawn will get more opportunities in first-grade VFL for Casey.

Reports are that he was a class above in the reserves.

Scullys 6 week injury is dragging out.. he was 6 weeks away on April 13 and on May 3 he was 5 weeks away. Surely his injury is much worse than expected. However, during the game yesterday I heard that he was on the track running this week. So fingers crossed he needs a few weeks to get his fitness back up. Then we can see him tear it up for the Demons.

The way Bailey was talking up Scully's fitness and how he'll "quickly regain fitness as he is such a fit guy", tells me that they won't even bother with Casey practice games first and he'll go straight into the side (maybe as a sub) once he gets the all clear.

Both Jake Spencer and Jack Fitzpatrick sustained their injuries during the second quarter at Preston yesterday.

Injuries are terrible but they're part and parcel of the game.

Sad for it to happen this way but the injuries will fast track Michael Evans' career. He played well again yesterday and his pace could be handy in Melbourne's midfield. This will accelerate his elevation from the rookie list and he could get a guernsey by mid year.

Dan Nicholson has been in good form at Casey as well but was subdued yesterday.

Best wishes to Jack and Jake for speedy recoveries!

With Gawn clearly 2-3 years away from senior footy, if Jamar went down Robbie Campbell would be heavily relied on.

He is now back from injury, drafting him could prove valuable.

If Spencer's knee really does need a reco then this could be it for him at AFL level. I imagine coming back from a knee reco is going to take some serious time. Horrible news for Jake, the club and us fans.

Hopefully both boys can have a speedy recovery.

Tall stocks seem to be thinning. Campbell being rookie listed now looking like a master stroke.

The Skipper was on One Week At A Time on One HD again tonight looking far more relaxed than last week (BTW) They asked him about Scully and he said 3-4 weeks in a pretty positive manner. Hopefully it is the case.

Spencil's a big guy, they'll give him 2 years to recover.

Let's not go nuts, Campbell's barely played a VFL game yet, he's a long way away from being fit enough.

Campbell has missed alot of football and has just recommenced playing. He is still terribly underdone.

Spencer was our insurance for Jamar. And we would have been better getting that game time into Spencer.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
