Casey is always windy, which leads to the odd skill error, but in the main I thought the standard was pretty good, certainly better than recent years. And there's an evenness across the ground now.

I was there today and some of it was really interesting rather than a highlights reel. The first thing to note was that apart from a couple of the young boys, we are a much physically stronger list th

It was an interesting morning. Blue team was clearly the "A" Side, although they put a couple of the senior guys in white to be the leaders (Frawley and Sylvia to start). They often pulled things up

What, we were experimenting in the intra club match too? Bloody hell, Caro will now start reporting that we were practicing how to experiment in game-like conditions.

Well part of the fun for me is seeing a real game (perhaps with slightly shorter quarters) and seeing which team of players play best together

I can imagine the outrage on here if they advertised it as come one, come all, 2pm Saturday and then the crowd turned up to find out it's not a real match like last year. Watch out tanking thread, it'd be 65 pages before Sunday morning.

Do we know what the teams will be for the game? I thought last year they were announced a couple days prior to the game but not 100% sure.

Honestly I am not to worried how they structure the game (4 quarters or 8 aahh... eighths??) just excited to see some of the new boys out and about.

Will be sure to bring a printout from the webpage with all the players names & numbers as just looking at the training photos it's easy to be confused.

I'm making a fair journey for the trip (from Echuca that morning, told work it's a 'client meeting'). Can anyone give me a rough estimate how long it will take say from the Bolte Bridge to Casey Fields?

Cheers

Approx. 45 minutes but it totally depends on the Bolte traffic which can be very slow at peak times.

So I would allow an hour Min.

Deeko,

It takes me 45 min from SE Suburbs so I would allow at least an hour plus depending on traffic

I've been once before but I can't remember, do they have team sheets available? I don't think I'll recognise half of our team!

Deeko,

Allow an hour.

I used to live in Cranbourne and it would take me 50min to punt road on game day.

Really good drive with the freeways now.

    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
