After today’s disappointment on the back of a phenomenonal year, I think we all need a big Casey win tomorrow.

It’ll be tough, the boys will be down and the Hawks have a good team in, but I’ll back our boys in.

Please get there to support the boys on their day!

Only for a handful of pathological supporters. The rest of us are celebrating a wildly successful season.

They will take 2 emergencies to Perth, but they'll fly back Saturday afternoon to be able to play in this game. King won't play (hasn't played all finals series and it seems his time is up) and there'

This umpiring is insanely one-sided but we only have ourselves to blame. Game should have been over at half time. Never should have put ourselves in the position where the game could be decided by ump

bringing five children as it turns out - four demons and a hawk!

it's a grand final - gotta be there

i remember seeing oliver being the best of a handful of casey players to really work hard and fight to win in the 16 decider against footscray - weed kicked two, a then vfl-listed tim smith three, dunn and joel smith were probably in the best along with kennedy

Which young players should we be looming out for.

Of the AFL listed, only Keilty and McKenna are yet to play an AFL game so you've seen the other guys.

Keilty - has had a really strong second half of the year, was relatively quiet last week but was best on ground vs Geelong in the qualifying final so fingers crossed he steps up and has a big game today.

McKenna - was a high draft pick and ex U-19 Australian Cricket Captain who has been plagued by injuries, has shown some glimpses of skill so keep an eye on him also.

Of the VFL listed, Corey Wagner the ex North Melbourne player and brother of Josh has had a strong year, Jay Lockhart looks like a gun in the making and will probably be drafted this year, Jimmy Munro probably won't get passed VFL level but he is good to watch and loves the contest, and Machaya, Freeman and Lefau are all young guys pushing their case.

Im going today to hopefully see something positive out of a bad weekend. But Id be rapt to see Bernie finish today with a premiership medallion. Yes I know he would have been hoping it was with the melbourne senior team but he will give it his all. 

If we won yesterday there may have been probably more poeple that would have turned up If we won yesterday the atmosphere would have been more exciting. Im sure it will still be good. 

Also Pedo deserves to have a premiership as well. His attitude since being dropped has been terrific. He has been the 1st to congratulate the boys when they have come off the ground patting them on there backs. 

I went a couple of years ago when we lost to the dogs, so today will be good if we had a victory.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
