Wow and I thought I was cursed.....

I don't mind shelling out once a year, but hopefully its not too much to ask to be in the game at half time, this time round. Shelling out for it to be all over at half time is painful :.)

Not only that - I was at the 2001 Footy Park comeback v the Camry Crows but had to bail early.

I am going to have a shot of tequila every time we butcher the ball, so I expect to be dead by quarter time

Bottom line is that we had close to our best 22 in last week, it just so happened that they played like poo. I don't mind only having the one change; there's nobody else at Casey that adds anything t

I thought we played some outstanding footy on QB against them. I'm hoping no one in the team says we owe them before the game.

Dawes might come out and make a statement with his toothy Adelaide private school accent.

Sends a shiver down your spine.

The same hard hitting lingo used by Alexander Down Syndrome in 25 years of political flouncing, leading to zilch.

I like the settled side , give the kids a chance and hopefully clunker/clanger Dawes can redeem.

If you wanted to start dropping blokes for errors etc last week we'd probably have Viney and Gawn v 22.

I haven't seen one ever.

Jeezus!

When an administrator of the clubs main online forum has never seen a win , I reckon that's as big a statement as ever in regards to this clubs recent history. FMD , this club needs to get its [censored] sorted.

I'm going to email the club and ask if they can wear 'Nasher' on their arms next week.

What a [censored] indictment.

It was made clear that he is regaining match fitness via Casey. He played around a half last week and has been named again this week.

I have no problem with this. As much as I want to see Salem in the senior side, it's best to be conservative.

Thanks mate - I've been a bit out of the loop so wasn't sure what's been going on. Have been pretty busy and not really inclined to seek out info on the Dees the last few weeks for obvious reasons so thanks for the heads up.

Such pessimism! There is every chance we will embarrass the Pies this week. Their form has been a bit shaky. Ours has been a little disappointing, I'll admit, but we have not lost five in a row.

Perhaps if we all say the board's prayer:

Our Nathan, who art in the middle,

Hallowed be thy game.Thy clearing run. Thy kick to Viney is direct, As in the game plan.Give us this day our Bernie Vince.And forgive us our turnovers,As we destroy them that wear black and white. And lead us not into hesitation, But deliver the ball quickly. For Hogan is the target,

The Demons, take the glory,

For ever and ever.

Amen

Haha that is brilliant just sent to my family.

Nasher, my heart broke when i read this.

We've all suffered but at least i got to enjoy the come back against freo in 2008 and the build up in 2000 and the delerium of the first 3 weeks the finals series.

When the ship turns i hope you're still on it.

I must admit, I'm pretty sure it isn't sinking.

Although it is pretty stagnant, adrift if you'd like, and i think our biggest risk is that at some point they'll decide to scuttle it.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
