Grimes is virtually assured to be delisted but has again starred for Casey.  

He played 2 games in the AFL where he was BOG in Darwin and then was a sacrificial lamb in the next as the Saints smashed us.

Another ex skipper crucified. He will be in Tigers colours in 17.

Can we please not use the word delisted. We wont delist him. While he might leave us as a free agent, we wont delist him. I'm sorry I know I'm being pedantic, but there is a difference between delisting Terlich and delisting Grimes.

Thanks to all for the updates. Want Salem in for the preliminary final.  Hopefully Casey builds in finals pressure and gives the young blokes a taste of what winning finals is like.

Sounds like Oliver BOG again. He should be #3 in rising star behind Mills and Parish.

Daniel, Weitering, Fantasia and Petracca would all be ahead of Oliver in the RS. Could be a few others.

Complements to the commentators on Casey radio.  Was very impressed they knew all the player names of both teams.  Called the game without the histrionics of most AFL commentators.  Also enjoyed their friendly banter about Terlich.

Spot on. Was played in a forward pocket in that Saints game too. Far from done at AFL level.

It amounts to the same thing. We're giving him the arse.

I really like the VFL listed players the Scorps have.. think we might see a few make it on to AFL lists in  a couple of months time.

... and Clarrie will end up a better player than every single one of them.

They seemed to be taking the [censored] out of Terlich for the most part.

Did Trengove play?

Yes.  Had a negligible impact.  Was getting a lot of work done to his right arm at the last change and then had it heavily taped up, not sure if it was hampering him or he just had an off day, i suspect the latter.

Although I would have loved to watch the Casey game, this Ess V Cats game is pretty good to watch - lots of goals and good quality footy.

Best for mine today was Matt Jones. Not only did he have the most touches be would've had the most metres gained out there his run and carry, and the uncanny knack of him and Viv seemingly always finding each other with their kicks. Another great game from the lesser Jones (also good to see Nathan and all the other boys here today).

Second best Lynden Dunn, marshals the defence with authority, wasn't beaten all day in the 1 on 1s, his field kicking was superb, constantly hitting long targets with bullet passes. 

In defence he was ably supported by the skipper who was great, Mitch White whose ability to read the ball in the air and spoil or intercept was a highlight, and Jimmy Munro who had a cracker of a game. 

Michie was great especially early, Nibbler after a quietish first quarter really worked his was into it with his work rate and also took a couple of great marks. 

Olivers hands in traffic are unbelievable, he just find time and space in close to give to others in a better position to clear the stoppage.  He was fantastic and also appeared hellbent on squaring up with whoever it was that left him on his haunches earlier in the quarter when the last quarter scuffle broke out. 

Angus Scott had a day out with 4, he's kicked quite a few goals this year now, and 23rd player Ferreira also showed some neat tricks when he swings onto that left foot.

Spence was quiet and well beaten by Minson but McInerney provided him a decent chopout.

Terlich was very busy, but quite often makes basic skills execution look quick extremely difficult.  If he hadve kicked straighter it would've been a great day for him.  He may get a week for the late hit he needlessly put on his opponent in the 3rd, he got reported for it. 

Grimes was pretty industrious on his wing made some great takles and the last term goal a good reward for his day

Hi KC - didnt hear anything of Max King on the radio or on Twitter - did he play in the 2's today? 

Yes, he played in the Development League team and was one of his team's better players but didn't really do anything outstanding.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
