Geelong v Casey Scorpions

Casey Scorpions

Backs Davis Sheahan Watts

Half backs L Tynan Panozza Fitzpatrick

Centreline Couch Gysberts Bennell

Half forwards Blease Cook McGough

Forwards Collins Jurrah Petterd

Followers Spencer Lees Nicholson

Interchange (from) Fieldsend Gent Lawrence Petropoulos Plummer Riseley Smith Taggert Viney *

Players i'd like to see as really consolidated in the best 18 by years end:

- Jurrah, Petterd, Watts, Gysberts, Bennel, Blease

Of those not playing VFL today, i'd add Stef Martin and Strauss.

That's 8 players younger than 24, 4 of them first round picks and all of them supremely talented.

If we're going to improve it's going to be through these 6 players (plus the youngsters already in the starting team) taking big leaps forward in their football development.

Add Davis to that list

So who's going down, and who is going to provide us lovely people of Demonland a much appreciated in depth analysis of all Demon players?

From the sight unseen list, suggest after watching both of them at Junior Level and one in the games last year

Cook - who is as good as they originally said and why we drafted him, just had a bit of a run with injury

Taggert - Club was really pleased to grab him when we did, he will surprise

So who's going down, and who is going to provide us lovely people of Demonland a much appreciated in depth analysis of all Demon players?

Man, that avatar's disturbing........


Watts, Jurrah, Gysberts, Blease, Viney all playing for Casey this week. This match is a far more exciting prospect than the Melbourne match this week and this saddens me.

Agree wholeheartedly, Sylvinator, but thinking best 25, rather than 18. I think you'll struggle to find the eight players you are going to remove from our current best 18 to fit these guys in.

Never wanted a VFL game to be televised more than today, what a pity... Damn I hope Jurrah just steps right back into it and bags 3 or 4, would love him at the feet of (or on the shoulders) of big Mitch in the near future.

im going down to give the boys some support

not sure about providing a report though hopefully i wont be cringing in dismay but cheering hard for outstanding play

ive got an idea that we will shock the cats alil and hopefully give a few bruises as well


Game 20 odd minutes in and I havent even heard a score on ABC Grandstand, which is supposed to be all about the VFL. Crap how hard it is to follow VFL unless you can go.

Thanks KC and great start Scorps...

Liam's doing well. Probably had half a dozen touches in the first quarter.

Cats start the second quarter well with a couple of goals but Casey still leads by 9 points.

How is Viney, Strauss, Watts playing and what are their positions on the ground? Keep the updates coming KC!


Our side looks much stronger - result will be fascinating.

Casey's side. I don't even barrack for Casey in the VFL, although I like them to do well.

Where is Watts playing ?

  • Author

Already a bit of a contrast to last year when Geelong kicked ten straight in the first quarter to lead by almost six goals.

Sure is WJ. A little over halfway through the term and Casey lead 9.2.56 to 4.5.29.


Casey's side. I don't even barrack for Casey in the VFL, although I like them to do well.

Yes 'OUR SIDE' and if you do not barrack for it tough tities. Casey is still 'OUR SIDE'.

Greatfully appreciated getting your updates of 'OUR SIDE' KC.

Thanks for the updates KC.

Whereabouts has Watts been playing? Wing? Up forward?

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
