Really hoping for a strong MFC supporter turn out and a win to send off some of the faithful servants such as Vince, Pedo, JKH, Bugg and possibly others who won't or probably won't be at the club next year.  Thanks for your contributions lads.

I can't...but a wonderful sentiment. Like yourself...thanks to the players...who'll be leaving.

    As a matter of interest, why do seniors listed players not maintain their numbers from afl to vfl level?

    Wg Vince goes from 23 to 63, JKH from 24 to 33

    Availability?

    Cos many of them don't often (or ever) need one

    Much better game to watch on TV being at Docklands than the normal VFL standard.

    Our lack of a genuine ruck is a worry for both Casey and Melbourne. You’d think that Pedo and T Smith might be safe for another contract until we have an understudy for Gawn.

    Preuss coming in (if that eventuates) would change that

    Agree. Would be great for us but still can’t  work out why he’d want to come.

    Good point, I've been thinking the same

    Why would Preuss or any other "near 1st" ruckman come to spend most of the year in the 2s?

    I think our roaming rucks last year without Max for 7 (?) games was a good tactic, using Pedo, Tmac, Weid, T Smith sharing the load

    Do we hold onto one of each Pedo/T Smith and King/Flippa and add another 2nd ruckman to develop?

    Free kick Hawks

    Playing one short with Hutchins. An absolute liability. Only stat last week two tackles. Might be captain but shouldn't be playing. Hopefully he contributes before his last game at Casey is over.

    The umpiring in this game is absolutely woeful!

    Honestly they've had 10 consecutive free kicks including 5 inside 50 this is extraordinary

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
