Saw the story. Humans are amazing creatures, eh?

So vulnerable, and so resilient.

That story really got to me for some reason.

    Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, but what an inspirational story from one of our Casey boys.

    Kyle Matthews Fights Back To Star

    Now THAT's what I call ticker ...

    Absolutely, I've said this before, we should rookie him!

    He IS THE sort you want around our club and really deserves at least One AFL Game in his life !!!

    He may turn out to be Much much more than that anyway. He's an inspiration to have around any AFL draftee, & club...

    I would love to see some of that sort of spirit around the club. Perhaps it would show some of the more talented less committed how it should be done.

    Yes, a great story and inspirational

    And he wasn't Captain of the Scorps before the assault for nothing either

    Nice story but where's the editor?

    Kyle turns into someone called "Williams" in the middle of the story.

    Annoying.

    Agree, the title could do with a bit of a makeover too.

    I would give him a rookie spot, but I am a romantic.

    Good luck to him but drafting him off the back of a handful of games after that is insanity.

    Hooray for romance and sentiment but there's precious little place for it in this game.

    Yeah, but he might add something to the team as a desperado ball-magnet small forward/mid. We have more than enough "silk" in the midfield, but he would add a heap of in-and-under never-say-die grunt to the mix, which is what we need more of.

    Romance drives Passion, & Passion drives hard work & maximum Effort.

    Maybe at his best, but he's played one senior match in two seasons. No slight on him at all but the profile of him in the paper shows he's still doing it bloody tough.

    Yep. I think his comeback is a great story - I really mean that - but I don't think we should draft him this year.

    • 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.
