    I'm sure i read somewhere that we can't upgrade a rookie for Lum' because he's not injured or some stupid AFL decision.

    Surprised if it doesn't happen for next week. Kicking at times a little errant but his marking,run and carry off halfback is what we need. In the best three ATM.

    not sure if lumumba's spot counts. should do

    Thanks. Based on what you've seen who comes in next week? 

    Ignoring any injury concerns, I'd have Tyson, Watts, Garlett, Kent, Pederson has been great, J Smith has had a lot of the ball and created a lot of run off half back, and Jetta.

    Is there a gale blowing? 

    Nope, it's dead still. Never seen Casey fields without wind before. The boys just seemed to not run as hard that quarter, I'd expect them to be getting a spray in the rooms.

    Pretty much agree but I think Kent will wait a week. No to Jetta.Weideman,Spencer and Harmed out as a starting point.

    How's Trengove tracking after reports of his early match good form?

    Isn't King on the LTI?

    Yes, I believe he is.

    So there's a spot available for an upgrade.

  • Quote

    I could be wrong but I believe we can upgrade 3 rookies.

    1. The AFL allow each team to upgrade a rookie at the start of the season. 2. We are allowed to upgrade a player for Heritier. 3. We can replace Mitch King who is on the LTI list.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Casey 12-5-77 to Port 10-3-63 3QT time, couple of late goals.

    Trengrove has been doing alright, nothing outstanding but doing his job

    • 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?
