If you go back through the thread the Box Hill line up is listed. Apparently a lot of Box Hill listed players

No Bruest

I don't think any of the AFL listed players are playing.

Cheers. Trent Mynott and Cal Porter the only former AFL players that I could see running around for Box Hill. 

Our AFL guys should be putting in strong performances (and it seems they are).

All you can ask

Winners. 87 to 52. Brayshaw, vanders, kozzie all standouts.
And Maj of course

Anyone know if Petty played? (No team sheet anywhere for example?)

I've always made a point of not criticizing the MFC on here, but the absence of any information about this match, with senior selections potentially hinging on it, is shameful.  It disrespects us supporters who, after all, are the lifeblood of the Club. Grrrr!


You’d imagine Brayshaw is an absolute certainty next week given he’s had two VFL hit outs. Hopefully he has the match fitness to play major minutes inside the centre with the absence of Viney, where he plays his best footy.

With Viney out there's a spot in the guts for him.  That's where he needs to play.

And Tracc plays predominately forward, out of the square till we get more of our big forwards back. No mention of Mitch Brown tonight so I suspect he is an unlikely starter, round 1.

Yeah agreed that Trac should be at least 50/50. Hopefully an Oliver, Brayshaw, Harmes and Petracca midfield should be good enough to get the job done.

Not sure he does yet, or if his foot is ready for it. No idea what percentage of the game he played today, but last week vs Bulldogs he only played a half and was then sitting around afterwards at Marvel with a heavily strapped left foot.

All very well for the club propaganda to say the players are angry about 2020:  not half  as angry as the loyal, “thick and thin” lifelong supporters who have been treated like irrelevancies by the club in not sharing the fact that some important players were pushing for selection tonight. 

Anyone look at the hawthorn website for info about the match?  The only vfl match I saw there was 3 days ago. Perhaps I missed something. Or their PR dept is as bad as ours or both clubs were    Keeping quiet for some reason. 

All a bit weird this. The Casey site has info on the Casey v Bulldogs practise match from Monday, but not this one.

Sorry sue, I could care less about the hawks but there is simply no excuse.

Mwmbers are the key stakeholders. Many of us didn't ask for money back last year. Those that did likely had to because they needed the money.

To not provide information about tgis game is a total joke. If it was a one off  then maybe you give the club a pass. But it unfortunately it isn't. 

Apet from respecting the fans such poor communication is just rubbish business.

What makes it worse is the covid related cuts are no excuse. These days content is basically free. Send Ben Gibson down take a few grainy photos, maybe a video on the phone and 25 tweets.

And alerting fans to the game even less effort and time.

Jesus... ?

It was a VFL practise match. They weren't even taking stats. The Casey Demons twitter account posted quarterly updates re what was going on, who was getting involved..etc. 

I'm not going to provide the link, cause I'm sure if people cared as much as their complaining would suggest, they'd have already found it by now. Wasn't hard.

Angus. If we are to take a step this year, we need you to have a ripper year. Cmon Gussy!!

Yep, great idea! Let’s take the bloke who finished 3rd in the Brownlow last year out of the engine room. Ridiculous

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
