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.


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.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
