PETER JACKSON VFL 2018 - PRACTICE MATCH
CASEY DEMONS  
v PORT MELBOURNE
Casey Fields 
Saturday 10th  March, 2018 at 12.00pm

Game Length: 4 x 25 minute 'flat' quarters (no time on)

Casey will play their second Practice match for the 2018 season today, the first with the inclusion of MFC listed players. 

We haven't had any news of team selection but once I'm am at the ground later this morning I will be sure to keep this forum updated on who is playing. If you have any questions throughout the game please don't hesitate to ask.

 

Thanks Drunkn.  I am also planning on heading out, but now delighted to hear that some MFC players will participate.  Could be several playing.  Interested in seeing Spargo. Petty, Keilty, Mitch King and Weideman, if he plays.

I clicked on the Casey Demons website and the front page of the on line site contains a story from 24 October 2017 announcing the appointment of Colin Garland as the Casey Demons VFL Womens senior coach for its inaugural season in 2018.

I suppose that means they’re not going to put the team selected for today’s game on their site.

 

Like many supporters I used to look forward to the AFL pre-season games to watch the lesser known and newly recruited players. Watching Hogan make AFL defenders look silly in his 2013 NAB Cup debut as a 17 year old helped give us some insight into what we had to look forward to. 

These days we only get to see the top 26 or so players in the practice matches so these VFL matches become far more interesting. The more reports the better. Thanks in advance

Just arrived. Absolutely beautiful day here in Casey, slight wind across the ground. 

Nice and warm though, gonna be a pain to play footy in.

The Port boys are currently finishing their warmup, the Demons still in the change rooms.

Agreed. Clubs no longer build into the season like in years gone by, they need to be hitting their straps round 1 or else you could end up like Sydney last year.

Hopefully we can get a look at Spargo, Baker, Petty and co.

When you have time if you could let us know which of the MFC team are playing that would be great.

Hope you can find a shady place as it is warming up as you say.

Dominant display by Casey in the first quarter

6.4.40 Casey - 2.1.13 Port


Spargo best. Kent prominent. JKH v good. Balic ok. Weideman playing but unsighted as yet.13 for Casey?? excellent.

Is there any way to listen to the game at all? Interested to see how JKH is going

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
