Casey important to success, says Roos

Paul Roos discusses the importance of Casey's ongoing good form to the senior AFL club.

Hopefully then this year we will also "buy in" to the VFL finals, unlike the past insults we have sometimes handed out to our affiliates

They are no longer our affiliates, they are our Reserves (Seconds) Team!

In fact doesn't Roos refer to the as the seconds?

Good pick-up - the shift in terminology is very important here.

Wet, constant drizzle down at Geelong at present. Me thinks these conditions mean a great day for Trenners and Dunny!

Stopped raining now

By my reckoning, the following players meet the eligibility requirements:-

Lynden Dunn, Colin Garland, Jack Grimes, Liam Hulett, Jay Kennedy-Harris, Max King, Viv Michie, Alex Neal-Bullen, Ben Newton, Cameron Pedersen, Joel Smith, Jake Spencer, Dean Terlich, Jack Trengove, Sam Weideman, Mitchell White

Matt Jones will qualify if he plays against Geelong today as would Chris Dawes and Christian Salem if they play both remaining VFL games. Angus Brayshaw would qualify if he played in the VFL next week. However, given their injury issues during the year, I doubt that the last three would play VFL finals if they did qualify.

I can't make it down to the Cattery today so if any Demon fans are there, your reports during the game would be greatly appreciated.

  • 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?
