No Sparrow again this weekend...

 

Lots to like in this.  Some great ‘welcome back’s’ and one important ‘welcome’!  Looking forward to them all getting through safely, and pushing for senior selection.

Hope KK gets a decent run at it.  Let him play for the rest of the year at Casey and get some continuity in his footy and his body (and head).

Lever? Thought he would play a half to 3/4 quarters.  Queens birthday??? Unlikely !!

I dont want Lever in the seniors until his form is good. "OK" form isnt anywhere near enough to justify his return.

A fit-but-not-in-form Jake Lever wont be the difference between us playing finals and missing out IMO.

Let him earn it. Properly earn it.

I think HE pulled the pin on a Darwin return.

I hope the club hasn't penalised him for that.?

Pretty solid looking team now we are getting players back.  Great to see May and KK named.

Club said very clearly that #8 would take the week off from all football activities to get his ankle right.  Sensible I would have thought.

That's fine, but don't go putting him in the senior team until he has played a couple of consecutive full games at VFL lever.

  • Demonland changed the title to CASEY: Rd 9 vs Werribee Tigers

This one is a tad exciting as a warm up to our Darwin game. Might be well worth the trip out there weather permitting. Quite a bit to look forward to. 

Anyone have any info on why Sparrow has missed the last two?

Torn meniscus. Has had the operation, will be out a little while though.

yep.  2 games in VFL, rest him up and get him right for QB. our defence is a debacle, we need a steady head back there to organise us 

would be exactly 12 months since he did it


We'll have Lewis, Lever, May, JKH, Weed, Preuss, K Dunk, ANB

all pushing for a spot from next week onwards.  finally some pressure from below

the 22 in Darwin should be out on notice and fire up!

How is Spargo even in this week let alone next week?

Did we pick these blokes up in the mid season draft? I have not seen them on any playing list before.

more touches and tackles than Lockhart, Garlett and Hunt. actually more tackles than the 3 of them combined 

admit he is not playing well but he is a kid finding his way and I reckon given some continuity and backing he will improve

You have to do more than tackle DD. if you are a forward the idea is to get the ball and hopefully score not to stop someone running off with the ball you should have had in the first place.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
