well that was very encouraging

goes to show how much better you look when you have 13 afl-listed players performing at vfl level as opposed to our usual 6-10 for the majority of the year thus far


Great team effort with lots of positives today. Good to see dominance of inside 50s converted into goals.

Good win. they moved the ball around impressively all day. thought all the AFL listed guys were good and showed a bit to get excited about at various times. 

To regular Casey watchers, is this Lefau kid a draft chance? Only caught the last quarter but man he has some toe.

When he is on he looks like a B level AFL player, but he also goes missing badly as a half forward. He feels more like a good VFL player than an AFL listed one but hell what do I know! 


Things I noticed watching most of the second half, was, heads over the ball. on a cold winter day. Well played guys. Dunkley will play seniors before the year is out. reuss and Bradkie encouraging each other, KK will be an asset once he settles in and stays fit. Keilty to be delisted. Petty looks a better prospect.

Thanks KC and all other posters I watched on Ch7 but kept getting on line to see the comments.That was a top effort from Casey and I loved the way they marked the ball and controlled it at different stages and got their eye back in after half time as well. We have some serious pace in there as well.

 

Go Casey.................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lockhart is a class above this level already, reckon he will cement a spot in the 22 next year 

Very impressed with Dunkley as well. And good to see KK doing well: I was concerned for him, but he was very good today, may have a future.

Mitch White looks as though he has some good footy left in him. Very strong overhead for his size.

Agreed.  Re-invented as a more than useful forward.  They said he's still only 23, which I was a little surprised at.  Seems ages ago he was a MFC-listed player!!


Great effort by our small forwards today in Bedford, Chandler, Lockhart and Wagner! They kept the pressure on all day ensuring the Pies couldn't get the ball outside our forward 50. Lewis looked very poised, and set up a lot of play from the back half.

I didn’t believe you, so went and looked it up and he is indeed 23. I honestly thought he was pushing 30.

He is a decent player, just lacks a bit more agility and a yard of pace to make it IMO.

Very impressed with Lockhart’s game. Really developing well. Like that he can play small forward and small back - could fill the void that’s created when Nev eventually retires.

 

A lovely day at Casey beginning with a hot egg and bacon roll after joining a very long gate queue filled with Magpie supporters.

Very little red and blue by comparison to the ubiquitous jail stripes.

Luckily the score board kept the Pies supporters very quiet. A stiff breeze across the ground made precision football difficult. I think Casey could have won by 100 points without the wind such was the dominance.

I'm afraid the numbers stumped me from a player reporting viewpoint but I was impressed with KK's first half. Definitely something there.

Preuss marked and rucked strongly and could perhaps have had  a couple more goals.

Hard to judge the result as the Pies were in the main woeful... which was of course pleasant in itself.

Looking forward to the next day out with Casey.. but hell it was getting cold at the end !!

Sadly could not watch/ attend today. But any time you beat any pies team is a good day and when you win by ten goals it is a very good day.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
