FFS, how many times especially over recent years have people posted on this board that ......(name an opposition star).... .... is out and how good is that for us? Now we will have an easy game.

And how many times, even when we had reasonable form going in has that come back to bite us??

Why not just face up to whatever the opposition chooses to put on the middle against us and..........kick ass.

i couldnt give a toss if a bout of pneumonia went through the club and forced them to field their seconds - we wants more wins, mono, WINS!

And sure as hell, I do too.

What I am saying is that there seems to be some sort of mentality that if so and so is / are out it will be, to use a term from some other team, a cakewalk, which it usually isn't.

We need to focus on whoever IS there and not on who is not.

i dont think the term 'cakewalk' is running through ANYONE'S mind. I am totally prepared for us to be blown away in the first 20 minutes with or without Pendlebury. I just pray to the Lord (Howe) that theyve learnt a valuable lesson in how good they can be when all 22 give 4 quarters of pure effort, and if they do, perhaps Pendles not being there to rack up 35 touches might get us over the line. So i'll drink to his exclusion.

And I too would have no quarrels with his absence.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
