The team chairs retiree Joel Macdonald off the ground. Pity the crowd here is so small because he deserves to be applauded by more than the handful who turned up to watch today.

 

Thank you KC....which is always a prelude to me asking how Toumpas and Taggert performed.

129 points then and Taggert with 5.

A lock for debut next week.
 

[censored] happens.

Hyperextension, PCL, ACL, whatever, he'll come back and be good.

Only a matter of time before some nutbag comes in and complains that for some reason he shouldn't have been playing...

hell yeah Taggert

hope Jimmy T racked up the touches

Magner with 51 touches, Toump with 31 touches and Nicho with 30 touches.

Thanks for the updates KC!

Fantastic win for Casey, great to hear about some of the boys having great games, fingers crossed for Hogan.

I really feel sorry for those Bendigo boys. The vfl and afl need to sort out this competition quickly, although I imagine it is already too late for it.

two big possession games for the Toump on a row now. Might deserve a call up but after the year he has had I'd almost say leaving him at carry to get a month of great form, lots of touches, self confidence and winning feeling back hopefully through a finals series will be better for him.

He haven't had to many kids go back or come up through Casey over the last few years who were capable of getting 31 touches. 22 normally gets you promoted!
 

Thanks KC!

So next week is the fight for second on the ladder then?

Box Hill vs Scorps at Box Hill on Sat

...and of course it won't be televised!

KC, mush appreciated as always, you're a champ!

32 to the Toump, 5 to Taggert.

Surely Taggert gets a run this week.

Magner..52...lol, that's ridiculous


There of course is no time to hurt a knee but hopefully it's a strain for Hogan rather than structural and won't prevent him doing a full pre season.

Really shows how good Toumpas could be as soon as next year with a full pre season and getting the tempo of AFL

Any idea on J.Tynan's stats? Even Luke Tynan would be good to pickup next year, seems to be in the best most weeks.

The Doc at Casey thought Hogan's injury wasn't going to be serious. We can only hope! I was 10 metres from him when he did it.

It was from a vertical leap out on the half forward flank. Dan Nicholson could kick it would have hit his chest. Instead it was way over his head, Jesse jumped and as I followed the ball there was a very loud crack. I felt sick whe I realised who it was !!

Credit to Jesse he got up within 10 seconds and made his way off the ground. Guys who do ACL's rarely get up like that.

Please cut us some slack footy gods. If he played today he would have kicked 10 for sure. Casey annihilated Bendigo.


Speak of Best, Best, the Casey player seems to be kicking goals and playing well every week, could be worth looking at but i dont know what sort of player he is?

Justin Sherman maybe?

I'm not a massive fan.

Absolutely ! This guy will be on a rookie list next year at least. He is a smart footballer with pace to burn. Knows where the goals are to

All who are calling for Taggert, Toumpas and Magner to get a senior game, I ask "why now"?

I watch Casey week in week out and you can see Toumpas developing at this level and Taggert has come on in leaps and bounds as well.

Granted, they couldn't do any worse than our current "firsts"!

Casey are trying to secure second spot on the ladder !

Leave them there to get some consistency in playing together and to gain some confidence from playing finals.

Some maybe unaware but in previous years the MFC have screwed Casey by playing guys in the last couple of rounds and making them ineligible to play at Casey in their finals campaign.

Let's have these guys play finals and hopefully go all they way for Casey !

I think that experience and development will far out weigh debuting Taggert and co.

Rant end.

VFL eligibility has changed so we should have no problems there.

I think it can be invaluable to give young players a taste of AFL footy late in the year. You hear many players say that it helped drive them during the next pre season having had a taste and realising where they need to get to. EG Tom McDonald. This could be great for Taggert

Shouldn't of been playing anyway.

I was having this discussion with my old man three weeks ago, telling him MFC only has 2 things going for it, Viney and Hogan.

And there is no use Hogan running around in the VFL after the mid way mark, what do they expect?

D*ckheads if you ask me.

This argument is raised all the time.

It's utter crap.

You can do your knee at training. You can roll your ankle running in the park. Essentially, you can get injured at any time, it's often nothing but luck.

I'd rather Hogan continue to build confidence and understanding at Casey.

Looks like we need to take Boyd in the draft after all.

Wait it out, hopefully it's not an ACL, if it was, then Boyd would come into calculations.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
