With the AFL having its rest week ahead of the start of the 2015 season, all eyes this weekend will be on tomorrow's World Cup Cricket final between Australia and New Zealand today's VFL practice match between Williamstown and Casey Scorpions at Casey Fields.

The Seagulls are a stand alone team which had a good season last year despite ending their association with the Bulldogs while the Scorpions are rebuilding their side after a horror 2014 that saw them slip out of the finals for the first time since they began their alignment with the Demons.

There will be some Melbourne players in this game with special permission to play (usually given if they have had interrupted pre seasons).

Among the AFL senior listed players expected to play are Angus Brayshaw, Jack Fitzpatrick, Jay Kennedy-Harris, Dean Kent, Viv Michie, Aidan Riley and Bernie Vince.

The Senior game starts at 1:00pm with the Development League match at 10:00am.

I have an appointment at the other end of town but hope to make it down before quarter time and will report on the game from then.

    For some reason I am heading to Casey to watch. I think it is my way of immunising myself for the year ahead. I can try and provide some reports but I know I won't be as good as the experts on here. 1st time to Casey so if anyone knows where to park, please let me know.

    Thanks maybe next year. No such thing as an expert, just write up what you see.

    A stack of Demonlanders will be very grateful. Thanks in advance!

    For a VFL practise match presuming no other major events on at the fields there's ample parking either in the main lot next to the stadium (between the tennis courts and main oval on google maps) or if needed the lot next to that for the athletics track.

    If coming along the Monash I have found it easier to stay on the freeway and go down Clyde Road to get to Casey fields instead of potentially getting stuck in Cranbourne. Although there's been some development along Clyde road so it's not as nifty as it once was. Also you then miss your chance at taking a sideswipe at Saty on his scooter.

    Any report would be appreciated

    Vince out there but no Howe. Kent there as is JKH and Vandenberg

    Good stuff. They are the 4 I want to here about as I want them in round 1! And any update on Brayshaw would be great.

    No Howe? thought he was further advanced in his rehab then Vince. Guessing he won't play round 1.

    Bradshaw misses from a set shot but has been everywhere and is making a strong case for next week. All melbourne listed players have been serviceable. Kent, Vanders and Brayshaw the standouts in my humble opinion

    Is Michie playing?

    Quarter time. Average game but you can tell the AFL listed players. Brayshaw clearly the best in Q1. Vince, Kent and Vanders busy. Michie and Riley tough at it but spent about half the quarter on the bench.

    Scores

    Scorpions 2.4.16

    Williamstown 1.3.9

    • 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?
