in Melbourne Demons

As most of you would be aware, the VFL has a bye this weekend as there is a State match on against the WAFL in Northam, WA.

The Scorpions will be represented by only one player, skipper Evan Panozza.

Captain of the WA team is Paul Johnson and I guess we'll know if the WAFL team is serious or not if they line him up at full back.

Former Demon Matthew Bate was in the squad but missed the final cut.

Casey sits in second place on the ladder and when play resumes next week, it will play a home match against Box Hill in an ABC televised game.

    I assume you meant Evan Panozza KC.

    The Scorpions' good early form has at least gained them some respect among the bookmakers.

    We're fourth on the sportsbet table now:-

    3.50 Geelong

    5.00 Port Melbourne Williamstown

    7.50 Casey Scorpions

    12.00 Northern Blues

    15.00 Box Hill Hawks

    17.00 Essendon

    21.00 Sandringham Werribee 26.00 Coburg

    41.00 Collingwood

    101.00 Frankston North Ballarat

    2,001 Bendigo

    Living in Brisbane, I have little interest in the VFL other each of Casey's games, but jesus Bendigo must be rubbish. 2000 to 1, when no other side is over hundreds.

    They are basically a brand new team after Essendon severed ties to start their own VFL team. I heard their coach, Aussie Jones interviewed and he said because of their location some players can't even make it to training.

    I can't understand the VFL......Why have a full bye 4 weeks into a season......If they want to be a feeder comp to the AFL they should follow the afl fixture to some extent.....Otherwise clubs will have their own reserves side and have their own comp.....which will destroy the VFL comp...

    • 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.
