How good is that photo? 

Looks freezing. 

Speaks volumes about our culture. I’m certain attendance wasn’t compulsory, yet less than 24 hours after a bruising game they turned up on a cold wintery day.

    part of their icing down routine? or an alternative to a port melbourne beach early morning dip?

    The cold weather will do them good.

    Builds testosterone, and ups metabolic rate, and repairs.

    Keep gargling 'warm salty water' boys.

    In: B. Vince, J. Kennedy-Harris

    Out : J. Briggs, P. McKenna

    Mitch King has been left out of the side for the second week in a row, this time at the expense of an undersized ruckman in Mykelti Lefau. I think his papers might have been stamped.

    Agreed that together with Melbourne’s interest in North Melbourne’s Brayden Preuss, this suggests that both King and Filipovic are on shaky ground.

    We were tested and tried but were held on!!!! Bring on the Grand Final!!!!

    Just FYI Keilty copped a decent knock to the hip in the first that’s why he might’ve seemed underdone for the game

    Well done Casey.   We will win the Grand Final, the Demons dont lose at Etihad.

    Gee wouldn't that be something if Bernie got back into the senior team.  He was retired a few weeks ago.

    How many will DJ get for the swinging arm? 

    Great effort by the Casey boys, I watched the middle part of the game but had to go player with the kids, the umpiring was terrible. Glad to see we came over the top after the fl ogs got a little away.

    I looked at that many times SloMo. The player has started to dispose of the ball the very same time DJ was starting his hard swing-arm tackle.

    The essendon players arms were outstretched forward after flicking a handball... and I think from what I saw, it appears DJ was aiming at the collar bone chest area, and it road up the essendon players upper arms.

    Clipping him to the chin/upper chest.

     

    After studying the replays, I don't think DJ was going for the chin, but fate took it.

    Dj looked stunned, stopped, as the player went down, then moved towards the play and was attacked from behind by only one opposition player.

    He wasn't prepared for attack from behind, and was sort of in an 'innocent of mind' state.

    Another great effort Casey Demons, thanks to KC, drunken167, WJ and all other posters. It wasn't sounding to good at certain stages of the game but the boy's stood up once again, only one more win required.

     

    Go Casey.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Go Dee's.......................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And what support from the Dee's players.

    Nice to know we've got a couple of players still pushing for selection.

    A little part in the back of the minds of JKH and Vince and a few others will be imagining playing in two grand finals in two weeks. Would also make them the 'human interest' story pre-GF, just for a laugh.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
