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?

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?

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!

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.

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.

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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.

    LAST DANCE by The Oracle

    Forget the wishful thinking from Magpie fans who think their team can perform yet another miracle and somehow snatch a place in the 2024 finals series when their team takes on the Demons at the MCG on Friday night. It ain’t gunna happen. They can whistle Dixie through their non-existent front teeth but the fact of the matter is that both teams have run their race. The game is a dead rubber — for each of them, this will be the last dance of the season.  And given the history between the two

    RED FACED by Whispering Jack

    The wind and the hot unseasonable temperatures together with lights turned on mid game at People First Stadium conspired to leave many Suns players and supporters red faced and gasping for air as the Demons proved a number of points on their way to a nine goal triumph on Saturday afternoon in the Carrara sunshine. Melbourne is the only non-Queensland team to taste victory at this venue in 2024. This surely leaves a number of journalists and media mavens red faced after they rushed to pass
