    Dawes on the ball, he definitely has the agility for that role...

    That's a strong and experienced Hawks team.  A win will set Casey's season up really well, and speak volumes about Melbourne's depth.

    3 years ago that was the nucleus of our best 22 in the seniors!!!! We have come a long way:cool:

    No Fitzy for Box Hill which is a shame.

    Should be about 15 Melbourne listed players tomorrow night, so hoping for a win!

    Am I right that vanders will be making his Casey debut?

     

    Off the MFC website titled, "No Time frame for Lumumba"

    In better news for Melbourne, utility Aaron vandenBerg is set to play this weekend for Casey, after missing the past five rounds with an ankle injury.

    “Vanders is going to play VFL this week against Box Hill. He’s trained really well the past few weeks and he’s rehabbed that ankle really well and he’s looking forward to playing,” Misson said.

    That's my recollection also.  Fairly certain he came straight into the Melbourne seniors at the start of last year, and has played all his games at that level.

    Not a bad team for Casey this week. of the 15 MFC players named in the team only 4 ( Hulett, Weideman, Max King and Smith) have not had first team experience.

    They're gonna miss ANB down there. 30 touches and probably a goal gone from the side. Hopefully Vanders can walk straight in and dominate for Casey as he has for Melbourne in the past and they push Salem into the midfield for a fair chunk of the game to get his hands on the ball.

    Wow, O'Rourke crossing from gws to Hawthorn has done wonders for his career. I hope he is enjoying the noodle box at Box Hill....

    We may have burnt a pick selecting Toumpas at 4, but O'Rourke has to be the biggest bust of the 2012 draft.

    O'Rourke was greedy by choosing the Hawks.  He thought he would rock up there and win a flag, yet he chose a side at the peak of it's powers and he can't get a run.  He would have been much better going to a middle of the road club, like the Saints for example, where he would have been given far more opportunities.  

    Instead he is languishing in the reserves and his football career is at a stand still.

    O'Rourke, Toumpas, Morton, Aish and Kane Lucas could all be the same player.

    I'm absolutely spewin' that I can't make it to this game tonight as I have a prior commitment,will keep a keen eye on this thread this evening.

    The only thing is it didn't matter a bit to GWS, they had a whole bunch more first round picks to get right or wrong...it was a numbers game for them they were going to get something good  but for us it was a very important pick and we got it wrong.

    • 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?
