Aaron VDB Injured again at training, I think he might be nearly done. His body lets him down too often!

Bowey, Jetta, Daw, Deakyn Smith, Bedford all look very good! BB Must play next week with Weeds also a strong chance. I thought Majak rucked extremely well, Bowey astute ball winner and user!

Picket, so Bowey stepped up from a reasonable performance the week before? Can you see him forward of the Centre in the ones, off a flank?

I reckon Sparrow did not play second half. Hope that does not mean a late change? 

Sure i saw him in second half.

Firstly, absolute full credit to the Richmond staff for not only providing a good quality live stream, but even providing full stats and regular "player spotlight" updates for Casey players. Absolutely [censored] on our Casey coverage from a great height. We couldn't even send one [censored] dude out there to tell us how the MFC players were going earlier in the year. Lots to learn from the best in the business.

Now, to the game.

Ben Brown is exactly as I remembered him at North. Annoying. Umpires' pet. Accurate. [censored] good. It's very nice to know that he's ours now.

Bowey has been very busy. 

Bedford will get games this year, he has fantastic work rate and pressure. Skills aren't the best but there's a clear role for him. 

Bratdke is still a million miles off. I wonder how long we'll persist? 

Bradke is 20 years old , give him time

Most teams given the sub rule now run a quasi-emergency who will play limited minutes in the VFL if that game is before the AFL game.

Contingency in case someone twangs a hammy in the warm up there is a player who isn’t completly cooked able to come in.

There isn't room for both PF.  BB should get the call up.  Thought Weid was right out of it other than the last quarter and a few cameos in the third.

Daw was good but for every good thing he does he seems to blunder something else shortly after.

Sorry haven’t had time to read the whole thread. For those that we’re watching, how was Brown’s and the Weid’s overall games. I’ve read their goal tally’s, how was their markng, how easy did their goals come, defensive efforts....

I might have to go back and read the thread.

What a weird comment. His size won't hold him back and it's likely he'll get an opportunity this year. Kid has pace, composure and skill. Will slot nicely anywhere on the ground other than key position or inside mid.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
