Crikies I think my 2 boys were the only Melbourne supporters at Berwick College. Oops sorry it is only a govt school.

My kids are at Berwick Lodge.

I can't afford the local privates either. I think Haileybury started at $18k a year and St Margaret's at $16k.

Even if I had the money, I can think of better things to do with half a million dollars.

And mfc has created a Casey Demons women's team in VFLW comp. Start up 2018.

The Academy and the two Casey Demons teams will help establish our colours and the name 'Demons' in the region and hopefully spin off to the men's teams and then memberships.

Is there a formal link between the Melbourne AFLW and the Casey VFLW team? In other words, will the Casey VFLW be like the "Reserves" for the Melbourne AFLW team just like occurs with the men?

That is a really good question.

There is a formal link in the sense that Melbourne owns the license for both the AFLW and VFLW teams.

But their seasons are not concurrent. AFLW play Feb/March and VFLW play alongside the AFL mens. eg Daisy and Daren Paxman and a few other Demons played in the VFLW GF last weekend.

I'm thinking the Casey VFLW is to develop the game and our brand in that region.

One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
