Bowey was good this week and has potential Rosman is completely lost with his positioning the coach has no idea where he should be played I would play him in defence  like CHB so he can run at the ball.

Exactly Rosman looked good when running at the footy.  I’d play him CHB and let him follow a target. 

Damn we’ve got some depth right now, fingers crossed we all stay fit!

126 Dream Team points for Majak Daw defies the critics. Maybe he is better insurance than most pundits predicted? Maybe we could give Max a rest next week in the VFL and throw Majak in against his old team? ?


Stats alone there seems to be a few almost games. Majak with 3 behinds, Bedford 3 behinds. Kick straight and those guys might be knocking on the door.

Just off topic dazzledavey, do you happen to know a bloke by the name of Shaun Campbell who played for Wagga in recent years.

I sure do. Absolute brute of a footballer. He played at Wagga last year and i went and watched 2 games (have a mate who plays there) and he absolutely ripped em to shreds.

Surprised he didn't have a crack at Ovens and Murray level considering the likes of Albury Tigers threw big cash at home.

Yeh. 

Cause dream team points are the only thing coaches look at when determining whether or not a player had a good game..

He is playing at Parkside in the Footscray District League where my son is footy manager, came with a reputation as a goal kicking midfielder, in his first two games I think he kicked 7 goals for the 2 games, on Saturday he kicked 10 goals 4 behinds playing straight midfield.

Not one bit surprised. Insanely good footballer.

Enjoy watching him put on a clinic every week.

My son and rest of Parkside will but I won't be travelling at least an hour and a half to watch him unfortunately.

Leader journalist Paul Amy reports that former Casey listed brother of Bayley, Darcy Fritsch, booted 20 goals for Coldstream against Kilsyth in Div 4 of the Eastern league. He was on Casey’s VFL list in 2019 but didn’t play a game.

Kicked 5 the week before. They had Bailey on the post game telecast, mainly to talk about that.

I'm not a coach, but I was there and he had a very good game.

FWIW.....

How was Toby Bedford Jake Bowey and Deakyn Smith.

3 players that really intrigued me.

  • Author

I'm not very good at describing what I see on the footy field, so apologies in advance...

Bedford looks the most likely at this point to take the next step. Didnt have as much of a stand out game as the last couple but his speed, aggressiveness and attack on the ball and opposition were still impressive.

Bowey was similar, but looked a bit timid early. Got into it more as the game progressed. Not as quick as I thought he'd be, but then the conditions were bad for a fair chunk of the game and not really condusive to hard running so I'll reserve judgement on that. Got a great kick on him though.

Smith is in everything. Quite a slight fella but it doesn't seem to bother him at all. He was often the one you'd see running around in support of team mates, mopping up the loose ball. Often got to it first when he probably had no right too.

Majak though, was very impressive. He's got a great vertical leap and tap, and to my eye, dominated the Richmond rucks, one of which was Chol. He took a couple of big pack marks in the forward line which definitely raised my eyebrows. Very handy acquisition

Bedford had a down week. Made a few mistakes in the first quarter and missed a soda in front.

Bowey continues to show he has the pace and skill to make it but not yet the size.

Smith was serviceable but less prominent than the week before.

Casey are going to be very hard to beat this year.

MS is Marvel Stadium

If you look at the venue key... bottom right ...MS is listed as Metricon

There is no listing for Docklands

If you are correct that is even stranger

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
