To answer a few of your questions.

Dawes kicked the first goal & moved ok in the first quarter. Starved a bit against the wind.

Spencer is playing and doing well in the ruck.

Strauss who was also named an emergency for the Demons, is playing well again and is pushing for promotion. Would be good if he could get the call up for the Carlton game, the club that he had that bad break against 2 years ago.

Nicholson is the emergency who flew to Brisbane with the Melbourne team.

    Three goals to the Scorps and they go to a handy break in the early stages of the third quarter.

    Jack Fitzpatrick doing a lot of damage up forward.

    Useful!

    Jack Fitzpatrick starring.

    Casey has been very good this year in its third quarters and tonight was no exception.

    Three quarter time: Casey Scorpions 13.8.86 to Williamstown 7.10.52. Fitzpatrick has four goals including three that quarter. Lynden Dunn starring down back and causing damage with a couple of long goals coming down the ground. James Magner in everything in the midfield.

    The game's not over yet but I'd rather be in front, even against this wind.

    See sawing emotions with the see sawing scores. I guess it's all about the wind advantage.

    Thanks all for the score and twitter updates.

    Go Scorps!

    Maybe i jumped the gun a little with the whole jumping off a bridge thing, glad to hear he is okay, anyone got the scores?

    I am afraid that was a one way ticket!

    So pumped with Casey like I never have before (maybe because half the team contains young MFC players and they actually win!)

    Is it to early to say the ins for next week - Dunn, Dawes, Kent and Strauss?

    The thing i find the most pleasing about casey is when the senior players come back to casey they seem to play really well get their confidence right up and play well when they are recalled, it's exactly what you want from your reserves :)

    Presuming Dunn is playing hbf he's sent a pretty obvious statement to watts. Play well tomorrow or you'll find Casey

    Yer - maybe I am the one jumping the gun!

    Should have never been thrown into AFL straight away. He should have at least adjusted to VFL first (which I asume is higher standard than WAFL?)

    Would have only made him doubt his ability.

    Wouldn't that be great! Seriously doubt it, glad to hear Fitz is stepping up.

    Our VFL side is stocked with a lot of promising players.

    he played sanfl. The standard isn't too much worse. And he out played Evans and others in preseason. Problem is club didnt expect to have him in 100 point debacles. In a winning afl side he'd still look ok

    not convinced Fitzy is one of them. He still drops too many marks then cleans up his mistake. Won't get away with that at afl. Even if he makes it he'll be up and down. Lets see

    sanfl I'd say, & I agree... we went into the first game to young & way too inexperienced, with NO form on any board. selection panel???

    Toumpas has had little impact

    The kids only skinny, he will need 4 yrs to develop.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
