Now hullett matches it with another beauty 

Yet to see Hullett live. Very keen to do so.

 

Casey 34 points up and will win comfortably despite sandy playing ok against the wind. 

 

Newton ok ok and back on ground.

 

We are building some real depth at casey, good to see.

sandy not a bad side either.

scorps should finish right up the pointy end this year.

To whet your appetite......and if he keeps developing as he is........and comparisons which we all hate.......Jack Darling.......had the opportunity to spend half an hour with him a couple of weeks ago, absolutely stoked to be on an AFL list, regards it as a privilege, determined to give it absolutely everything.....thinks the development he is getting from the coaches is first class


Anb hands in close are a thing of beauty. Tackles hard too.

i know it is hard to break into seniors midfield at the moment, but he surely must be close. Had the ball on a string today.

Thanks Saty. You get an idea of what someone's like in your mind and it's always a little different. I've heard the Darling comparison. Just looked at an interview and get the impression he's a tough hombre.

Same thing said by Weeds family so it was written on here last week.

Finally we have a REAL footy club by the sound of it. Roos might get most of the plaudits, but our entire development team need a pat on the back. (Even if we dont win tomorrow)

Turnover and Dawes spots up weed who is now getting reward for effort.

Credit to dawesy, as despite competing for the same spot, looks like he has really taken the young weed under his wing.

They've worked well together today.

That's true, but Roos set the whole thing in motion and maybe we wouldn't have attracted some of these guys if he wasn't there.

I give him credit for turning us into a football club again, first time for decades.

And don't underestimate the importance of selling a great product to the family. Remember, these boys are generally still incredibly influenced by mum and dad. Hopefully not in a 'this fish is overpriced, let's punch on' Damir Dokic way, but in a way that allows us to retain this impressive crop.

I've enjoyed my first Casey game for the year. All were impressive and they future of Melbourne is bright with the young players we have. Impressed with Dawes, Terlich, Newton, Trengove and ANB.  Can't wait for tomorrow although I can't go as son has his own football game.  Casey will win by about 5 goals. Battery now nearly dead

Peter Jackson got Roos in and said 'what/who do you need", and then ensured he got it

As you all know I speak to the players quite often, all have said, it is a team now, there are no stars, you get a role, you play it, you play it consistently well, you stay in the team, if you can't crack a spot in the position you normally play, you can have a crack at another position at Casey, see how you go, see if you can get in the team that way.......Michie.............the coaches will help you have a crack at the other spot......the ball is very much in the players hands.....you make the effort you get rewarded

As for Neal Bullen, had a bit of an interrupted pre season and Clayton Oliver jumped him, just has to bide his time, but we are going to have a battle hardened replacement who is in top form should we need him

Thanks for the updates!


We are on the road to being a successful club on field, being a destination club, successful financially and re earning the respect of the AFL football community. 

It so heartening for all the long suffering loyal fans.

Always appreciated KC.

Should Angus Brayshaw has 4-5 weeks off match footy then wear a Helmut. 

First his knee sidelined him for 5 weeks.

Now 3 concussions in 3 games over 5 weeks.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
