After their horror start to the season, the Casey Demons find themselves on a three game winning streak and on the cusp of climbing into the top eight. This week they are up against another rival for a finals berth so needless to say, they can’t let up. With a few Melbourne listed players likely to return from injury, expect a strong team to take the field on Saturday -

Confirming that a number of players coming back from injury including Jake Lever, Neville Jetta, Kade Chandler and Declan Keilty are to line up with the Casey Demons on Saturday.

I really feel for JKH - the senior inquiry list is horrendous, the forward pressure is zero AND he has been playing his heart out and playing well for Casey.  Is Goodwin blind or deluded?

Funnily it almost makes more sense that way.

The problem for JKH, and Stretch for that matter, is that they fall somewhere between AFL and VFL standard.

We could have Lever, Jetta, Lewis, OMac and J Wagner in the backline for Casey!

who would have thought we had such depth.... the senior team must be flying

 

Cant see stretch ever making it but wish he would,gets the ball ok but to slow thinking what do with it.JKH deserves a go can see him being rookie listed and do what jetta did ,come back and be a star.I think it is all about maturity confidence with him


Think I will head down and get completely flummoxed at the sight of Jetta and Lever in the backline.

Preuss playing or not will be a clear indicator of Max's status.  IMO I can't see why we'd risk Max, this is what we recruited Preuss for.  Or at least play both of them so the load on Max is reduced.  Mysterious business ...

At the very least Preuss has to be a carry-over emergency doesn't he? Surely you wouldn't give a player until the last minute to prove his fitness without some form of last minute security?

JKH gets the opening goal (no surprise either). 

Casey Demons 1.1.7 to Northern Blues 0.0.0.

Only one Wagner playing. Josh, I think - so that means Corey Wagner joins Preuss as a hold over emergency.

And look who’s back!

The usual opening. Casey dominate for the first 10 minutes. Kick 1.2.8 and then the opposition go forward for a goal. This one kicked by Garlett - theirs not ours.


Do we have a ruckman without Preuss?

Liam Wale-Buxton is a competent VFL ruckman. Backed up by Declan Keilty and young rookie Austin Bradtke.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
