After 11 years of not making finals we are in transition phase and stil trying to work on our game plan? When is your plan for making finals, 2028?

And BTW it would be good to have players with legs and feet. Do you think before posting?

 

Yes exactly these days they always are. being tinkered with.How many players are left from 11 Yrs back. maybe 2 ?

we are a young side now with more talent in the casey team looking to the future and the AFL has changed enormously since 2007.

Weidermann would want to perform, as Pedo has been really good. Took a ripping mark on the members side wing.

yeah, but then his kick i50 was terrible

weed is there to play forward / relief ruck - haven't seen pedo play in the ruck once; his role is more akin to hogan when he's playing forward, but without the midfield rotation

it was a classic hanger tho

JKH is a long way back.  Getting involved, but having negative impact on every conterst

Got to the contest and won the pill in the forward flank late in the quarter, soon as he felt a bit of pressure he spilled it, straight back to the Opp for the clearing kick the other way.

Was getting on the end of a few clearances in the first but has since drifted out of the match.

Totally. His disposal is abysmal and he has zero impact at the contest. Won't make it in the seniors. Baker has shown a bit I think. His running shots on goal need work. Sparko has a go. We have been sloppy with disposal and failed to stick tackles.

You should change your name to Pollyanna or delusional.

If Casey can bring a manic pressure, man on man game in the last and finish their efforts off better coming inside 50 hitting up Pedders ....Clear out that forward line...too congested.  Spargo & JHK at the drop....you never know!

Some mids were reading the pill ok in the first but afterwards they have def won that battle easily OD.   I hate to say this but to me King looks intimidated by Salter in the ruck contest and is having Zero impact.

One ripping mark followed by a shank kick = zilch.

Pedders is the least of Casey's probs today Steve.  Has done ok given the way the ball is coming in and also had to work up the ground a little as well to help out and hit the contests.  Very serviceable.

    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

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
