I’m going in early to save the site some controversy.

The Casey Demons take on Coburg for the second time this year. Earlier in the season, the Lions were thrashed and the Casey Radio truck got bogged, leaving their loyal listeners bereft of their scintillating commentary.

Be interesting to see if the travelling emergencies make it back for this game.

Weather prediction is 14 degrees, light winds and 2mm of rain... classic football weather.

It might sound strange but the traveling emergencies are not required once the game starts so they can fly back on Friday night and be rested for the game the next day.

 

I feel sorry for Coburg who are a very ordinary team playing 2nd place Casey who are a very strong team on paper.

This will be a slaughter I'm predicting the Dees to win by 150 points.

My Preferred Team

B: Frost, Hutchins, Johnstone

HB: J.Wagner, Keilty, Lockhart

C : Hannan, Stretch, Baker

HF: Balic, T.Smith, Bugg

F: Spargo, Pedersen, Weideman

FOLL: King, C.Wagner, Kennedy Harris

IC: Filipovic, Scott, Munro, Lok, Quigley

The 23rd man will probably change and Corey Wagner won player of the week for the second week in a row.

If the 23rd man changes then Quigley doesn’t play.

yep but with the game starting at 7:20pm local time it's either a late night or early morning flight.

The last flight on qantas appears to be 8pm so that's a hard ask.

As a very frequent traveller to the city of churches it's not blessed by the airlines like the east coast cities

It seems a tight time frame. If Garlett and Stretch don’t get selected for Friday night surely the club leaves them behind to play at Casey. If those two are the held over emergencies it would make it nearly a month without a game for both.

The club needs to get a bit smarter at this. Obviously you want your best players available for the senior side if possible, but it is pretty dumb to have players 23-25 on your list not playing games for multiple weeks.

Having Tyson miss a week after being dropped surely set him back a fair way, and since then we have had Garlett, Pedersen and Hunt miss games whilst on the cusp of senior selection.

Given how rarely you need to call on your 23rd player, I'd rather hold over a player further down the depth chart (Bugg, Wagner, Stretch, etc) and keep the better players playing regularly.

What happens with games like this is that say Stretch and Garlett do the warm up with the boys in Adelaide and as soon as the game starts they are off to the airport and usually land before the game ends so they are ready to play on the Saturday. The issues lie when the game is on at the same time / the day after Casey. 

Agree that we do need to get more game time into some of these boys who havent played for a while.

That's until we get an injury in the warm up and have to bring in someone not up to the job and we bemoan the fact someone of decent quality wasn't on standby.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Hannan stays in the seniors, Tim.Smith in the seniors as well, Petty and Garlett stay at Casey.

Stockdale is 23rd man

Filipovic isn't playing maybe Gent comes in for him. 

Casey at home with a very strong lineup, 100+ point victory guaranteed.


Fired up to get over-excited about player performances against a glorified suburban team.

All eyes on Casey today. Plenty of spots open in the seniors after the last two  losses.  

Hoping for huge games from Garlett, Petty , Weideman and Spargo.   Would gladly have all 4 in vs the Saints if they dominate today.

I'm looking forward to this one to help me forget about last night and see who steps up to get a spot in the seniors.

Go Casey!


Go down and take a look. Be interested to see how the weed plays as well as Garlett, Spargo and Wagner.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • 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?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
