    Best comes from the Leongatha Parrots

    For novelty value, they should organise a game against Fev's Yarrawonga Pigeons.

    Why is a Roos joke less serious than a Connolly joke?

    What a joke.

    Thanks KC! Good to see a demon connection with Cranbourne's coach, Melbournes own Doug Koop. How good was he in the 87 and 88 finals?

    CRANBOURNE star Michael Boland has signed with VFL team Casey Scorpions.

    The athletic prospect was yesterday compared to emerging Fremantle ruckman Zac Clarke by Scorpions football manager Matthew Young.

    Boland, 22, has played a variety of positions for the Eagles including centre half-back and ruck under coach Doug Koop.

    "We targeted him at the end of last year and we've been watching him for a few years now and he's close to a couple of guys that play at the club," Young said.

    "He's tall, he's lean and our coach [Rohan Welsh] compares him to Clarke from Fremantle."

    From the above article I hope that Casey haven't gone out and recruited another Lucas Cook!

    The focus this week might well be on Southport where the Demons take on the Gold Coast Suns but, if you've developed a fondness for Casey Fields after last Saturday's NAB Cup game against the Saints, why not come back again this week for the Scorpions' first practice match v Frankston?

    The neighbouring Dolphins have recruited well, it promises to be a big day at Cranbourne East and the parking won't be anywhere near as bad as last week. I can't promise which of the Demons will be on show this week as the MFC will probably take up a decent squad and rest a few as well.

    SATURDAY MARCH 16

    Casey Scorpions vs Frankston at Casey Fields DL 11am VFL 2pm

    However, it looks likely that some big guns will be on hand at the same venue following week (March 23) when the Scorps take on VFL heavyweights Port Melbourne and they could have a couple of handy inclusions.

    Demons look to VFL.

    Casey will round off its practice match series at home against Box Hill Hawks on 30 March.

    I assume our New Zealand international player will get his groundbreaking introduction to the game at Casey?

    From my understanding he was staying in NZ for most of the time. I presume he might come over for a block of training at some stage and maybe play VFL (that does make sense) but the main plan is to pay him to develop as an athlete first and see how he goes.

    As for this VFL match it sounds like Clark and Trengove are aiming for it (but the week after might be more reasonable) and if he doesn't play this week that Dawes would be odds on to feature in it possibly with a few others trying to get some footy into them before round 1.

    We'll beat Port round 1 anyway, so they may aswell have a roll down Casey.

    your confidence made me lol

    The twitter news from the Casey Scorpions suggests there will be some Demon represention at Casey Fields tomorrow even allowing for the 27 strong squad heading to the Gold Coast plus injuries and a few rested players:

    1st praccy match is this Saturday at Casey Fields vs. Frankston. Development at 11am. Seniors at 2pm. Plenty of @melbournefc boys to play!

    Possibly Dean Kent, Dom Barry and a few rookies, I would suggest.

    With a few showers and a top of 22 predicted and a reasonably empty car park, it should be a stark contrast to last week.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
