Just to get you even more excited for Petracca. I texted my mate who plays for the Collingwood VFL side and obviously played against him on the weekend, asking how is he to play against and this

Great work by Melbourne to put up a video of all the Casey goals on the club website and to include the name and number of the player who kicks each goal.

Newton scored a goal that I saw, so not sure if these stats have been lifted from official stats. And yes, he was on limited game time as was Max King, who was also playing his first competitive match

Half time. Now for the weekly catering report. 

Its absolutely shite here. Stodgy hotdogs, or pies. That's it.

Missing those bacon rolls.  :(

Agree. Spread nowhere near that at Casey Fields.

That was a disappointing quarter from Casey and they will need to lift if they want to win this.

Collingwood leads 7.3.45 to Casey 4.6.30

You at the game BRFE ?

Yes. I'm here. Trac not as much ball that quarter 5 or so touches great third effort led to a massive tackle. ANB very good that quarter just accumulates and creates play. Weeds not helped by the forward delivery but he seriously attacks the ball in the air. Pies just seem to link better than we do and hit kicks forward of 50.

Only saw the first half, but pleasingly Roosy was here for first quarter and a bit and would have seen the early show put on by two players - one Petracca and the other Mason Cox.

If Gawn shines and the Dees win today, then the Cox decision to keep him out will go down as one of the worst in history.

As to Petracca, I'm looking forward to Sunday night against Richmond to watch his debut - both he and Vince are definite inclusions. Surprisingly he played mainly on the ball today - i thought he'd be used more as a forward, but it seems they want to get him fitter quicker.

Billy was 23rd man today so did not play but his buddy Neal-Bullen was very prominent as was Michie and Grimes worked his way into it.

But when you are watching a lower standard you really notice the players with extra skills and for mine it was CP5, closely followed by the power left foot of Mitchell White. One piece of play where he switched to Petracca who hit a target (I think Weeds) and then ran down collected the handpass and then hammered the ball home was AFL level at the highest.

Garland and Terlich and Hutchins were also good down back, but the Pies did well counter attacking - hence we were trailing.

Weeds moved well but had a tough match up with Frost and others to beat.

But mark it down now - Petracca to debut next week.

This would make me a very happy camper as I am travelling over for the Richmond match from Adelaide to introduce my 7 year old lad to OUR home of football

Trac just showed his superior strength and determination. An absolute bull at a contest with repeat tackling efforts.

Mitch White goal in the run after a throw in. 

Then Trac - himself goal from mark and set shot.

Stick it up em boys!

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
