I'm really getting sick of this, the AFL clubs treating the VFL competition like swiss cheese. to do to it as they please. they're destroying the VFL's standing in the communities around the country.

its time the AFL clubs separated from the VFL & went back to playing either prior to AFL home Victorian matches, or play at the training venues against themselves.

leave the VFL to be the suburban & regional entertainment they were.

What standing. The VFA gave up it's own standing when it became the VFL and relied upon the AFL to help it survive as a professional league. Most of the clubs have now worked something out. Northern Bullants and Box Hill have folded into their AFL alignments, Port and Frankston stand alone, Willy will join them, North Ballarat and Werribee enjoy a split a alignment.

Casey and Melbourne remain together because the matter is both clubs can't live without each other. And yes we've treated them badly the previous 2 years but at the moment we (and they) have been hit with a bad dose of injury trouble at the wrong time of the season.

It seems Hogan got injured, Rodan got injured, Couch got injured, Strauss, Burns and Blease all did contact injuries. Strauss and Blease I believe needed their surgeries regardless. I don't think they could've been delayed and even if they were they were probably out 4 weeks recovering just to play 1 match maybe.

As I said feel bad for Casey. But this is the same club who hired Fev when we pleaded with them not to. If anything they still owe us one.

Stark 2-4 weeks Hogan 4 weeks ... please (put down season). MFC doesn't rate Casey anyway, why else would Toumpas, Bail & Rodan all fail to qualify for Casey. Toumpas and Rodan should have played agst Box Hill and ... Bail sitting on his backside in Adelaide was "STUPID" item number 22 for the year.

The extraordinary thing about our injured list is its capacity to expand during the week after the list has been announced. They are what's called around here "the mystery injuries of the week".

The following players not on the senior/rookie list are not playing this weekend:-

+ Rohan Bail (reason - probably emergency for tomorrow)

+ Mitch Clisby (reason - suspended)

+ Troy Davis (reason - believed to be a hamstring injury)

+ Joel Macdonald (reason - retired)

+ James Magner (reason - unknown)

+ James Sellar (reason - probably emergency for tomorrow)

It's tough on Casey to field a strong side of AFL listers when all of these things happen. Injuries can't be avoided but why did we need to hold back two players for tomorrow's game?

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
