A few points of interest here:

1. Essendon, another Goodwin connection or just raiding one of their deckchairs?

2. No mention if it's part time or full time, the initial plan was part time but that was before confirmation of Egan leaving. I still don't really get it, I'd have though Casey coach and development manager would be a vital coach to have full time even after big cuts.

3. McPherson making the announcement instead of Mahoney

    Goodwin wasn't at Ess when Corrigan joined them.  Corrigan took over as coach as their VFL team at the start of this year but there wasn't much of a VFL season. 

    He seems to have a really solid background in development so from the outside it looks a good appointment.

    Mahoney could be on vacation.  Now that the trade period is over he may not be needed much before the draft.

    Welcome to the Demons Mark, we already have a number of good young players on our list and will have another 4-6 depending on who Taylor and Co pick up in this years Draft, we are going to need at least 6 young guns to step up in 2021 to help our older brigade out.

    So  I and a lot of others here on Demonland will be watching their progress with much anticipation. No Pressure But..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ex Essendon ? There is a slightly foul taste in my mouth. Lets hope he is good.

    I really wonder what the role of Casey and similar clubs are these days.

    The game at VFL level is miles below the senior level quality wise and you have to question its worth as a true development path.

    In the last ten years I can only think of Weid, Petty and Baker who have come through Casey for any length of time. Not a stunning output.

    Makes you wonder if there is a better system.

    Watched him play many games at South Barwon with his brother Paul who played AFL for Geelong. Geelong Football League was a very high level competition and South Barwon dominated for about 6 years.

    Absolute gun at that level, way better than Tom Couch and as good as any player in the comp.

    I was lead to believe that he was going to be a Demon as a teenager but did his knee and so was never drafted. Not sure if this is true?

    • 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.
