There is a nice highlights reel - Declan Keilty

I thought Hamish Brayshaw was on the list? Surprised that he wasn't picked up?

    Its great isnt it. Plapp must be stoked as both likely ro be with casey most of the year so they dont lose the talent or the synergy and history they have with their Casey team mates. But will have the advantage of afl level training, develipment and training. 

    A win for both young men and both clubs. A very smart move.

    The other positive is that the MFC players who played multiple game for Casey and Smith and Keilty will know each other pretty well, which has to hep in terms of them settling in and the general vibe around the club

    How can he possibly be fielding calls while doing a 10km run?

    That's what he was doing right?

    Is he big enough to play on Gorilla forwards? We still lack a defender who can take on these.

    Nothing against our draftees but it beggars belief if we didn't draft a key back. Tmac who struggles on gorilla forwards goes down our next option is Omac....

    If it's any consolation he was rated Number 1 this year in the VFL for one-on-one wins, mostly against key forwards.

    Listed as 194cm but has a good leap on him and an athletic powerful frame that should fill out. Oscar will be stronger next year and Frost is being trained up as a defender now. So that's 3 options other than Tom to take on the big boys.

    Cloke got him once or twice in that absolute wet bog of a game at Casey but he was more beaten for smarts by an experienced player than for sheer strength.

    1 last thing I'd like to note, is his listed weight shows 88kgs, where the last time he weighed in he was up to 96kgs, pure muscle. A good pre-season in him and he will have a very competitive amount of strength.

    Haven't seen much of Dec, other than what's on the highlights tape on the MFC website.  The kid looks like a genuine swingman, which will be awesome.

    Have a feeling that he will fast become Uncle Bitter's favourite, given how much he likes his swingers...

    I hope Declan has a successful career.

    Please don't take to heart any of the remarks that will come if Declan drops a mark or misses a goal, some people can be feral.

    Spoke to Macca about him, showed enough improvement in the 6 week mini pre season last year and consistency at Casey to be given the chance, think only scratched surface they want to see what full time environment can achieve

    Big lump of a bloke, managed to rip his training jumper to shreds in tackling drill

    I saw him train early in that block at thought his endurance was poor and skills were ordinary. I actually thought Moncrieff was the far better prospect of the 2.

    So I was very surprised with his Casey form this year. I get the feeling big raw country lads would be Macca's specialty.

    Macca's speciality is getting the best out of everybody, reckon he is the best signing, apart from senior coach,  the club has made in the last few years, you can see the respect from both the coaches and players, also calls a spade a spade, ask a question you get an answer

    Attended a a small function with Macca as guest speaker a few weeks ago and thought it was just about the best one I have been to, in terms of learning something new about the club.

    Macca was honest and informative and you couldn't help but feel that the club is now in great hands, from the CEO down.

    You got the feeling we would leave no stone unturned, in our quest for success.

    Also the Pizza was great. Must find out where it came from.

    I thought you had been banned from partaking in pizzas Red. Something to do with the number of kgs displayed on your scales.?

    I also attended that evening and can confirm that McCartney was a very special presenter who is really positive about the direction of the club and particularly about our younger brigade. 

    Declan's in good hands.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      The Demons are back on the road again for the third time this season when they take on the red hot ladder leaders the Sydney Swans at the SCG. Can the Demons take another big scalp? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.
