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.

    Go Dees

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
