FWIW I like the look of 20 year old Casey player Luca Goonan. Skilled, tough and strong as a bull. Worth keeping an eye on.

    Pure poetry - and you guys down at the game have performed brilliantly on your mobile devices for all of us stuck in 'cannot get to the game' mode. Looking forward to the next match in an hour or so - Foxtel is working and it is already set up to record the game at the 'G.

    Joel Smith knee injury. “Maybe a medial”. Poor fella can’t take a trick.

    How is VDB going?

    Just gave away 100 metre penalty. In and out of the game. Engine room player doing the grunt work around the ground.

    Nek minnut, Brown crumbs off the ground, 360 spin and shot on goal! Only spoiled by being slightly offline.

    In all seriousness, I think he has an awkward look at the best of time. He, Weid & Bedford all look ready imo.

    Nek minnet after that does a fresh airy trying to handball the ball.

    Hopefully he never plays another game in the seniors. Tough as nails and gives his all but is just not smart or disciplined.

    Bit of Tom Hawkins there from Wiedeman just pushing his ruck opponent off and collecting the ball, then through for a goal.

    Wied is an absolute lock for AFL next week.

    Game seems to be petering out

    Lots of boundary line play

    Skill levels dropping off due to tiredness perhaps.

    Hardly a breath of wind and the sun has disappeared

    100-54

    Another goal to the Hawks 106 to 60.

    Coach asked for four quarter effort. He got three

    Yes, 5 goals to 1 in the last quarter...

    So Weideman is a lock for next week. 
    Makes the possible loss of Fritsch for another week less difficult.

    OMG Toby Bedford moves well. AFL bound.

    Great attack and aggression at the player and the ball. Suddenly we almost have an embarrassment of small forward riches. Chandler also good but not at same level today

    Weed = 7 as stay home forward. That translates as one more week for BB, and Weed promoted next week.

    Very hard to line up VFL form but Weideman Bedford Daw all look good. And Jettas response to being dropped is what you want to see. Brown looks like he need another run.

    Off to Foxtel for the big game. Thanks again folks - proud to belong, so to speak - so many DL contributors keeping others nof able to sync with the game - doing such pleasing things. We were updated, informed, happy. This dual-team MFC/Casey association has immense benefits for our future hopes. Great effort.

    Disagree on Daw, he looked like an average VFL player,

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
