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.

    Young Dees (Casey) playing pretty well can’t be unhappy with the effort

    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

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
