No Jurrah? mmm. Sounds like he still needs to meet the fitness requirements of the club.

Wont he get fitter faster if he's actually playing footy in a park somewhere, rather than just sitting on a bench in the crowd?

Cook and Taggert back in - I'm almost more interested in their progress than that of the Dees this week - almost. Cook named in development side as well?

One more week on the track for Jurrah before his return:

Great to see Cook back from injury for his first game of the year and first draft pick Rory Taggert in for his first VFL game of his

career.

14 Demons players listed in that squad, clearly our injury list is shrinking, finally!

Need Jurrah back asap we will be lucky to kick more than 5 goals this week without Clark

Fitzy gets a good test against Goldstein. How unlucky is Fitzy that Sellar has come in and played an absolute blinder last week? Would love to see Ricky P demand his spot back, with clark out I thought he would have been in. Not sure what more Couch has to do to get a run it's very confusing. the only thing I can think of is we would have Jones,Beamer,Magner and couch who are all inside midfielder's.

Yep, those were four of the best possessions I have ever seen.

I reckon its time Blease steps up and has a game good enough to pressure for a recall to the seniors. We're crying out for outside run and he's in the magoos (as he should be BTW). Without being too dramatic, if he's not at the crossroads with the dess he's approaching it.

Always been a fan and he had a really bad break in his leg to overcome but he's had a full pre season and a month or so of footy so i think we can now start to to expect some good footy from yet another high draft pick.

Agreed. Too bad we didn't have him last season, he would have fit right in to our Round 19 side with a performance like that!

I think Sellar was a bit stiff, not his best game but he was going to take a couple of marks, I thought when Clark jumped all over him. I can't see the pair of them in the forward line together unless they get better delivery or a better understanding.

He definitely wasn't our worst, but 4 possessions is 4 possessions. He needs to impose himself on the game more if he wants to be a part of our team for the long haul.

Good to see Williams back in the seniors. 3 goals last week, and hopefully improvement from here as his rustiness disappears.

The seniors didn't play last week, he was in the development squad for match practice, as was Spencer.

Is it on tv ? Would also love some reports very interested too see how the dees boys play

I'm in the country today (other side of town) and, at best will get there late (if at all). I hope some of my contacts will be in touch with scores and details.

I do know that the development team (aka ressies) won comfortably. Lucas Cook, on comeback from injury, booted five goals.

Cook kicked 5 in the 2nds apparently

Correct - also in the best players.

In the main game North Ballarat dominates early with the aid of the breeze and hold a four goal lead at quarter time - 5.8.38 to 2.2.14.

Yeah but Darling would have kicked 6, therefore Cook's a spud and always will be.

Even though next year Darling would still kick 6, but Cook would kick 8...

Scores level at half time with Jamie Bennell the standout and Jake Spencer very good against Todd Goldstein.

Bad news for Tom Couch - off the ground with a suspected broken leg toe.

Casey Scorpions 7.7.49

North Ballarat 6.13.49

Possession Stats at Half Time

Bennell 16, Nicholson 13, Panozza, Couch, Fieldsend 11, Petterd, Sheahan, Blease 9. 

Goals: Riseley, Smith  2 goals each.

Edit: suspected broken toe for Couch not a suspected broken leg.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
