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: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
