Anyone going? I'll be going to the Geelong practice match next week so you will get a report there.

Looking forward to reports on Preuss and Kolodjashnij in particular. GO CASEY!

    Very keen to see how Kolodjashnij plays.  Hopefully can be pushing for selection by rounds 3-4.

    Oscar Baker and KK are two i am quite interested today. I feel like their run and drive will be crucial for our line up over the next few weeks.

    Hope Preuss plays well also.

    5 mins into the first quarter a Hawks player goes down holding his leg. I’m not sure what happened but the Umpires have called for an ambulance. Gonna be a while before play starts again.Poor bastard, never want to see injuries but definitely not serious injuries in a practice match.

    Poor guy

    The Box Hill Hawks player who was injured and picked up by an ambulance is Mitchell Lewis.

    Casey big man Buxton-Wales has been impressive.

    For me Kielty was far above any of our big men

    Contested marks and beautiful kick and has a football brain

    Coach said as much in his address at the first break

    Pruess definitely has potential 

    We struggled against a strong wind 2 quarter

    Any scores??

    Kolodjashnij has done some good stuff, Baker as well. Pruess dominating in the ruck at stoppages but otherwise not doing a lot. Stretch been good too. Casey have had most of the play but have missed easy shots and gotten hurt on the rebound.

    Casey 6-13-49 to BH 9-3-57 nearing 3/4 time

    Petty limping off with a rolled ankle, doesn’t look too serious.

    Left at 1/2 time. Box hill player was down for about nearly 1/2 an hour. They had to wait for an ambulance This is why it took so long. Not even a mobile carry off stretcher to get on the ground to pick him up.

    As for our players well Keilty was playing well as was petty in the backline. Pruess okay centre bounces but nothing else. KK was okay and reads the play well. agner was good as well. We were 3  11 to their 9 2. Can't kick straight.

    Classic Demonland.

    Put a mirror up mate. You are what you perceive

    Keitly was promoted from the Casey list and has been in the system now for a couple of years. He was far more effective than Pruese in the ruck in the pre-season game I watched.

    We got smashed against Port on the weekend and part of the problem was when Weid  went into the ruck. We needed a better option. Ohh that and he can actually take a contested mark over his head unlike Weid.

    Keilty in for mine.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
