    I’m up nice and early today. It’s a beautiful wintery morning, the birds are singing, Melbourne had a huge win, I get to watch my brother play high level football in just a few hours, and not to mention Jack Viney!

    Imagine being a 19 year old Casey listed player, missed out on getting drafted, been playing well enough to squeeze into a packed VFL team, and as you run out on the day, the god damn Captain of the Melbourne Football Club is running next to you.

    Cant wait too watch today’s game and hopefully it’s another big win. Carn the Dee’s!

    I used to go to some of Parkside’s home games because my parents had a business nearby. The local fans were tougher than some of the players and I remember seeing opposition fans being chased at the end of games by thugs with axe handles. That area’s changed and has become gentrified so I can imagine fans being greeted with tea and hot scones with jam at half time these days.

    You know it's little things like not having to rush Viney back in to the AFL, that means were becoming a better team. (This fact should not be understated). A few years ago, we would have brought him back underdone and suffered the consequences later in the season. This is really good news

     

    What do you mean a few?  They did it last year ?

    It hasn't changed in that respect, probably gotten worse if anything.

    I seem to remember you had a love for cats when Delan was drafted, very glad to hear that red and blue runs in your veins now Drunkn.

    Good luck to Casey today, I think Jack will have limited game time, that is why he is playing ar Casey.

    Yeah well 35 years ago things were very different, worse thing was that it was a practice match that didn't have an official umpire!

    Instead of bloody repeat after repeat of panel shows, I would prefer to see VFL matches broadcast on our dedicated football channel.

    JV should get around 70% game time today and hopefully be cherry ripe to come in next week to tear the blues apart.

    Used to be known as Reservoir Parkside when I played in that comp. Len Fellows was their most well known player, all 6'7" of him. We played them once on a ground that had a slope and had a gravel area in the middle. That was in the junior comp, not the Metropolitan league.

    Preston, Reservoir area was as tough as in those days, the Preston Town Hall dance on a Saturday night was like Festival Hall, there were so many fights and you would have to be crazy to go near the railway station after the dance.

    Hawthorn too strong in the end, were dominant after half time and Sue “Tex” Perkins was too powerful up forward.

    Hawks beat Casey 4-7-31 to 3-6-24 in Round 1 of the VFLW season

    One a side note, in the past a women’s game before the VFL has tended to tear the ground up but Casey Fields is looking a treat. Id put that down to a higher skilled women’s game, not scrappy and tearing the grounds up the guts like it did in the past

    Casey are looking very powerful before the game. Both the emergencies in Hunt and Garlett are playing, not to forget Jack Viney. Plus all the other Melbourne listed players. This should be a great game to watch.

    Great start to the game with Viney getting the first cleanrence and JKH kicking the first goal thanks to a beauty of a kick from Mitch White

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
