A goal to Bayley Fritsch, Casey's second sees them 65 points down late in the third quarter. The other goalkicker is Jay Kennedy-Harris.

The Demons were down to 11 AFL listed players as Mitchell White isn't playing. Angus Brayshaw as mentioned was off with concussion from early in the game.

Casey are starting to remind me of Collingwood in the VFL from around 10 years ago.

They would top up the team from the local league.

I appreciate that the problem is mainly driven by injuries at the MFC level.

The concern is that it does not assist in the development of future KPP's at all if they are playing in teams that possibly lack structure.

Hopefully it improves.

The improvement will come when our injuries list reduces DJ it is that simple

 

Not exactly a positive day out for the seconds, but it's obvious that Harmes and Neal-Bullen are doing everything in their power to make a difference.  It certainly hurts when we lack the talls at VFL level and we lose some bigger bodies like Wagner, Melksham and Gus during the game.

How's Stretch going?

To be honest if we lose by 239 points but Gus is ok, I'll take it!

Spoke to his Juniors coach a couple of weeks ago at the MYS. Lovely bloke. Bit of a character, so take of this what you will 'landers. He said he carried him off the pitch half a dozen times as a kid. So if you count just the ones he's gotten as an adult + what this guy says... I dunno. I'm not making massive calls... but boy it's different. Only other player I can think of that compares is Bell. Uncharted waters here, so I'll sit back and hope. But the sheer amount of knocks are heaping up in a way I haven't seen.

Sounds like a bad day for Casey with a big loss and Brayshaw concussion. Hope Brayshaw is ok and the players can pick themselves up for next week.


So many knee jerk reactions on here from amateur experts.

Thanks KC and all posters, sorry to hear that Gus took another hit today and that we were so poor, just to many on our injury list at present and most of them are still a way off playing, maybe Gus should play in a helmet until he gets himself 100% right. Go Casey Demons!!!

There is no way this is not a bad outcome.  Brayshaw off with head injury in the 1st 2 minutes!

Yep, have the rest of the year off young fella.

It's easy to say but AFL has been his dream and now that he's here it's not as simple as saying, "bad luck but think about the rest of your life". This is his life right now. 

Poor Gus, I'm at a loss to think what we do next. Forgetting he's a high draft pick, he seems to be a magnet for head high contact. Can't imagine how his mum must feel.

I appreciate what your saying in terms of not over reacting to the news of another head knock, but it's not really a knee jerk reaction to suggest a young guy suffering a potential 4th concussion in less than 12 months might want to think about his long term future.

It is a pretty extraordinary situation.

Wow just saw the video on afl.com

He got sniped again by some coward. Unbelievable.

Unless you're a doctor (and I assume a specialist in the field of brain anatomy), and unless you're privy to his medical records, I don't believe you're in a position to proffer ANY advice re his career.

    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?
