Yes in saying all that a lot can changed. Patty Dangerfield on radio the other day said he was really homesick the first year or two but after a while once you build friendships with players, coaches etc its just to walk away..

In Jesse's case this could be particularly different too. He will have 23 years here, finish his schooling here, and will turn 18 here, so he will get to go through the 'have a few beers at the pubs and clubs' etc with new friends he has made in Melbourne, both from the club or others, not with his high school mates. He won't be doing schoolies trips etc with those sorts of guys. I know you make lots of friends, but those sorts of bonds can be what drags someone back. 3 years is a long time to be away from your friendship group and pick it back up as well. Family will be the big calling I reckon.

    It'd be interesting to see how Magner and Couch would go together in the seniors.

    Is Couch likely to be elevated to the senior list at the end of the season?

    part of our debt was to bail out casey.

    I thought the dees were a better side when affiliated with Sandringham.

    Perhaps the senior players suffer jet lag when they train at casey.

    The city of Casey is really going ahead though, I hope we stay affiliated with them.

    It's a growth area and if we can gain some support from the locals - it will pay off in the long run.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
