If it was in play and marked it would have been called play on. Makes no sense to review the score because it went through the goal posts.

Hogan is a gun down back. I remember watching him for WA and just assumed he was a back man. I was surprised when he came out and started dominating up forward for us. If he plays down back, he is our best back man, I have no doubt about that. Of course I would prefer him up forward, but it was a good move to shift him back in that quarter, and it is a good ace to have up the sleeve. Watts and Hogan can swing position and swing games.

We just didn't handle the rise in tempo, half time should give us a chance to reset, we're clearly the better team, 4 of their 6 goals have come on the back of our mistakes, tidy them up and i can't see them even getting close to us.

Nice 'hang time' kick by Hogan late - super intelligent play.  Roos is using Hogan well too ... get him in the play to help shift the momentum.  Hogan is not just a key forward - he can play anywhere.

Kept that 5 goal lead from the first quarter ... and we would have taken that at quarter time.  We kick the first couple in the 3rd quarter and it's all over ... need a knockout punch.

Wagner, Harmes & Bugg have contributed well ... Frost & Hunt have done a few nice things too.

Dom Tyson played an amazing first quarter but has been well held since then! 10 touches and a goal in the first and now he's what 13-14 touches. 

with them watching him Jones and Viney have been able to get onto the ball a bit more

Jones has played well. Viney got some vital clearances in that second quarter.

Turnovers and skill errors are what's standing between us being also-rans and being a consistently decent team.. Will come with time and experience, but still frustrating when it happens.

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6

    SLIP SLIDING AWAY by Meggs

    It was a sweaty, slippery night at Cazalys Stadium, a tough slog with low scoring and missed opportunities.  The Hokball Hawks hung on to win by a goal and sit second on the ladder, relegating the disappointed Demons to, almost certainly, finals spectators.   We had to win this match. When news broke of late withdrawals of talisman Kate Hore and key back Gaby Colvin, expectations plummeted, and Demon fans despaired.  The bad news was the signature song of 2024, a season that’s
