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.

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.

Posted

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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
