Remember kids: This match means nothing if we lose, but we are premiership favourites if we win. There is no in between.

Good to see ANB spent all of 3 seconds over summer working on his crippling fumbling deficiency.

God I love seeing these topics

I'll be playing cricket (fresh if a man of the match 2/3, 2 clutch catches and a 13* to steer the innings home) but can't wait to watch the replay

For some it's the other way around with a spoon as the reward if we lose.

To those who have been to these pre-season matches at Casey what’s the recommended time to allow before the match to get in and find a park? Also is there much likelihood of a lock out or will rocking up with a membership be fine?

Never seen a lockout at any of the ones I've been to and not many Crows would know where Casey is.

40mins before kick off would be ample time and we have been as late as 15mins before and still got a reasonable park. Having a FWD has helped at times.

Thanks for the tips! I think we’ll work of a timeframe along those lines, now 4WD available though so I’m thankful for it not being a wet day!

This will be our first hit out against 'real' opposition, and we are fielding a strong team that, from all accounts, have had a strong pre-season.  It should be a good indicator of how we are travelling at this early stage.  I'll be disappointed if we don't win

Totally agree, we’ve had pretty bullish talk from the club and Adelaide are probably in more of a rebuild mode than challenging. 

I’ve been living in London for the last 3 years and worked a lot of weekends before that I honestly can’t imagine when my last “live” win was. I know it’s pre-season, but I really want to watch a win with my own eyes. I was also lucky enough to see 2 weeks of the season proper in 2018, somehow managed to get two of our worst weeks of the year in Hawks and Tigers.

True but a section of the ground is blocked off so it may be more cramped.

Agreed.

People say preseason games dont mean much...  thats rubbish.    When we lost both preseason games last season many supporters thought something felt off.  The rest is history...

Whilst everyone likes a positive result I will be calling it a win if there are no injuries however other key themes I am looking for. Signs of return to form/fitness of the 2018 clan. Bright spots from our second and first years that show they will push claim. A more balanced game style that is strong at the contest but more so improved on the outside and defensively.

Are there any indicators from the emergencies  that did or didn't run out yesterday as to the full extent of the side that will take to the field today?

Seeing that side named, whilst not totally unexpected for the likes of T Mac and Melksham, was like an early Christmas present with respect to the likes of AVB.  I guess we will see by the end of the day if that named team was just a dream or turns out to be a nightmare.

SEN used to do pre season games and you could listen on their website, not sure if they are this year though

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
