Can someone help me understand why: 

- Brayshaw in back pocket 

- Wagner in forward pocket

- Johnstone in back pocket

- Maynard full forward 

- Bugg CHB 

- Spencer on wing 

These positions seem topsy-turvy, am I missing something??

That's because they are topsy-turvy.

They never actually name the proper lineup before the game, not sure why.

The actual lineup on the day will be more like you would expect, nothing like what has been listed.

This time last year, he was something of a surprise hero for the Scorpions when he emerged out of the Development League into the ruck where he had a good finals series with the Seniors before he was drafted as a rookie with Brisbane.

Now, congratulations go to Oscar McInerney on winning the Brisbane Lions Reserves B&F last night.

Sorry to steal your thunder @KC from Casey, but I thought I'd get the ball rolling.

After a very strong second half to the season, whilst being unbeaten at home, Casey find themselves with a top four spot and a double chance in September.

PETER JACKSON VFL 2017
WILLIAMSTOWN  v CASEY DEMONS

Burbank Oval (Williamstown)
Saturday 2nd of September, 2017 at 2.00pm

Now I've been going back over the team lists for the 2017 season, and by my understanding of the VFL Finals rules, I believe these Melbourne listed players will be eligible to play (excluding injured players):

  • Trengrove
  • Brayshaw*
  • Stretch
  • JKH
  • Weideman
  • Hulett
  • Bugg**
  • Spencer
  • King
  • Kennedy
  • Johnstone
  • Wagner
  • Keilty
  • Maynard

*Brayshaw has played 6 VFL games this season, making him eligible to play. However, he was concussed in the opening few minutes of one of the Northern Blues game, so if they don't count that game, he will have only played 5, making him ineligible.

**Even though Bugg has only played 4 VFL games, his suspension game against Sydney was on June 30th, 1 day before the July 1st cut off, and he hasn't played a senior game since, so I think this makes him eligible.

Also a couple of interesting things, Wagner only just scrapes in with 7 games, Pederson is ineligible having only played 4 VFL games, and out of every single AFL listed player, only Keilty has played all 18 games for Casey this season.

A lot of this is and will be speculation until we get confirmation from the club about who is and isn't going to continue into the VFL Final series, but at this stage we can have a reasonable guess at what the team lineup will be for Saturday, here's what I have so far:

CASEY DEMONS

B: 25. D .Gordon, 1. J. Hutchins, 45. D. Keilty
HB: 42. J. Wagner, 64. A. Brayshaw, 48. C. Maynard
C: 69. B. Kennedy, 9. M. Gent, 57. J. Kennedy-Harris
HF: 37. D. Johnstone, 26. S. Weideman, 83. T. Bugg
F: 55. L. Hulett, 2. B. Fritsch, 17. E. Morris
R: 59. J. Spencer, 54. J. Trengrove, 15. B. Stretch
I/C: 27. A .Scott, 35. A .Ferreira, 6. J. Munro, 34. M. King  

23rd: ???????     

 

Hopefully we get some more information soon and we can see what kind of team Casey and Melbourne will be bringing to this years Finals. It is a drastically different side that saw Casey finish Minor Premiers and Runners-Up in 2016, but at this stage it looks like Casey could absolutely take it all the way to the end.
 

Is it on 7 today?

Looks like it will be Richmond vs Collingwood on the tv

Why would you put those two unpopular clubs on TV, when you could have Casey v Williamstown, two goliaths in Victorian football?

It will be interesting if Angus Brayshaw plays after missing so much of the season due to concussion. Do they rest him and get him fit for 2018 or does he get some games under his belt at VFL level?

I reckon he'd WANT to play.

Josh Tynan is back pocket for Port Melbourne reserves. Good draft pick for MFC ?? One of very worst picks. 

Christ some people will do anything to saying something negative about the club. It drives me crazy. Negativity follow our club around because of [censored] like this. He was pick #52. Very players in that range make it in the AFL. "One of the very worst picks" is an exaggeration beyond belief.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
