Would expect the Dogs to withdraw a couple at least from today's game as insurance. Six day break and an injured Roughead.

Would think Minson or Campbell will come out. Maybe Jong or another mid as well.

 

At least one of the rucks i would have thought, it really depends how much they think playing today would set them back next weekend, obviously they'd love to win today and next week as well

Bloody hope so. I reckon the win last night would have given the young pups today an extra ticker.

Will be a very close game today.

Man I can't tell you how excited I am for this game. My brother in 10 years of football has never played in a Grand Final, and nothing on this level. He is absolutely beaming with anticipation (which is rare for him, he's usually very humble and docile off the field) Whatever the result it's gonna be a huge day!

Who is your brother?

All those weeks of traipsing down to Casey. 

All that time spent walking round the outer.

All those match day reports from KC and the D'landers. 

All those egg and bacon rolls.

It all comes down to this......

BREAKING NEWS: Salem will NOT be playing in today's game.

Hope he's ok. He will be missed, but I'm also kind of glad that he's not being put at further risk of aggravating last week's injury.

The Dogs went in against Collingwood massive underdogs with the bookies, much like their senior side over the last 3 weeks.

Unfortunately I expect the Dogs will run over the top of Scorps, the Dogs were just clinical last week against Collingwood.

Ugh! Got friends coming over to show off their new baby at 2.00 ?

Delayed recording it is. To check scores or not? Hmm

Can't they text you a photo like normal people. And then you have to say 'what a beautiful baby' even if it looks like it stepped out of Deliverance.

Well I got that wrong. We lose Salem and they go in as selected. They are stronger than the team that beat the Pies last week by 20 goals. This will be tough.

ABC commentators have already nailed their masts to the wall - backing Bulldogs big time, complete with Gia in the box.

More hipster sheep like behaviour then? Bulldogs should have 60000 members if this many people like them.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
