Jetta straight back in to the seniors is a pleasant surprise. No development league this week?

I agree Nasher, and I'd love him to play where he is named in the BP. I reckon he could carve out a fair career as a small, deep defender. Disciplined, hard at it, reads the play well and very good overhead for his size. Not the quickest and not the greatest kick, but would be very dependable imo. If he's going to make it, the BP may be his go.

Jetta and gysberts back playing footy, you beauty!

Williams has come a long way, from where he has come from and his illness earlier this season to be playing vfl is a good effort

Says a lot about Ablett that he can only make the interchange bench at Werribee!

It probably says that McKinley is a better prospect as starting key forward than Nathan I would have thought.

He is going to be some player this kid.

Any reason in particular that Sheahan is on the extended bench/development squad (other than poor form, of course)?

Great to see Jetta back!

He has had a good season up to the last couple of games where he has struggled. He is a good player this kid with a lot of upside so I hope they keep with him.

I wonder why some of the MFC's extended bench aren't also listed for Casey?

Looks like there will be 2 emergencies who don't get a game

Wouldn't be surprised to see 1-2 late changes to the side, especially with Spencer named in the 25. Bail's availability would rest on the neurological tests to be run today, I believe.

DC as I understand it the emergencies travel to interstate games in case someone comes down sick etc on the morning of the game.

I remember Davey and two others travelled to Perth earlier in the year as emergencies.

There was talk at the time they might get the late flight back to play with Casey.

That never happened so they played for neither side that weekend.

There is the added problem this weekend with the start of school holidays that the flights are booked solid.

I am going to Brisbane tomorrow morning and tried to change flights.

No seats in any class Saturday or Sunday.

So no chance of rushing someone to brisbane.

OK. And Jack also added to question mark over Jamar/Bail failing fitness tests

Must mean things looking good for #7

No thanks, he seems like a list clogger to me. I'd rather we give the spots on our list to players that have proven that they have a desire to play in the AFL rather than those who take it for granted.

Grimesy, I didn't say recruit him.

I suggested watching him closely... the guy has huge talent, but needs to be watched to see if he has the desire. Nothing more.

Nathan Ablett could barely get a kick when he was playing for Broadbeach, let alone in the AFL. He is finished. He was given every opportunity at the Suns, and if he wasn't going to make it there playing besides Gary, he is done.

Nathan Ablett won a flag and i dare say if he never quit and had the passion/desire that his brother has, he would've had a very very good (if not great) career.

Nath Ablett has all the talent in the world, but not the personality.

His general nature is far too passive and only ever wanted to play footy to have fun with his mates.

The determination to succeed has never been there.

That is fair enough. I doubt he'll ever get back into the AFL though.

I do to, but if he's true about what he said, having a real dip.. We'd be foolish to not follow his progress.

He could be a cheaper option as backup to Clarke than Cloke, as we wait for Watts Cook to grow into they're bodies.

These attitudes can change as some grow. As does an Open mind.

Nothing ventured.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
