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

    Remember kids:

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

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

    True. But I pretend those supporters don't exist.

    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?

    Predictions anyone?

    Dees by 5 points. Why?

    Blind hope after 2019.

    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

    Yeah agree I’m just going to turn up with my membership shouldn’t be any need to pay extra....last year v Lions was about 4000 I think

    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...

    A lot to look forward to today. Main watch is Trac, interested to see how much time he spends in the middle.

    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.

    I’m in Wagga.

    Anyone know if this game is broadcast via online radio or any other media or do I just check in here for reports from you fine people?


    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

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
