They are mostly Casey players with a sprinking of Demons - mainly younger brigade like Rivers, Bradtke, Jordon, Bedford, Hore, Baker plus Jayden Hunt and Josh Wagner.

    We have, but so far we've kicked 10 points and 4 out on the full.

    I was going to go with "Our first shot for goal went through for a behind and there's no opposition to kick it back into play".

    Pidge would be Andy McGrath maybe? Jones is one of their draft picks I think.

    This is a big mismatch in talent. No one is to read anything into this game. Essendon a grade talent having a field day. Nice to see Rivers in a Dees jumper though

    I was immediately thinking Glenn McGrath and Dean Jones.

    McGrath makes good sense for a nickname of Pidge ?. Don't mind me, Bit on the slow side this afternoon.

    I believe all tweets about this game should have the disclaimer in this tweet.

    Geez, my 15 year old nephew is playing for Casey.

    When there are long gaps between Melbourne tweets there are either 2 things happening. Either neither team is scoring, or Essendon is scoring. I tend to think it is the later rather than the former.

    Regardless, with the players we're using compared to them, I'm taking nothing from this game. Unless we win of course.

    The first Casey match is not until round 3 of the AFL season and the boys are of course not fulltime footballers.

    Interested to hear of any individual efforts etc

    • 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.
