Tried hard but couldn't find much info other than the game being Thursday 7:10pm at Marvel.

It is free on Kayo.

Any more info such as ticketing would be great.

Ticketing seems to change each week. At Box Hill you could buy a ticket at the gate whereas against Richmond it was the full online ticketing system

    Who comes up with this appalling schedule?

    Bad luck if you're a Casey listed player who works full time, then needs to play a game of football in the middle of the working week.

    Bad luck if Melbourne loses a few players at training on Friday and possible replacements have already played on Thursday.

    What's wrong with having the game on Sunday?

    And why on earth would you play it at Marvel - it must cost a fortune to open the ground for a few hundred people to turn up.

    Probably keep two players out.  One for the medical sub and one emergency.

    It would have to be a Fox Footy mandated timeslot change  wouldnt it, to fill the void left by Thursday night Footy bizarrely being shelved again despite near unanimous favour for it.

    The whole floating fixture at both levels is also a nightmare, it'd be nice to be able to plan ahead when I can try and get to Casey games.

    It's also live on Fox Footy Channel

    Have set Foxtel to record this potentially epic television event but am curious about the team selection. Up until now, it’s been simple - wait for Melbourne to pick its team for the AFL game by which time, the VFL game is 10 minutes into the second quarter. I get that and it seems to work as beautifully as everything else in terms of communication with fans of AFL & VFL these days. But when will we know this week?

    I assume that members get some kind of discount but I can't find any reference to confirm

    I must admit I like the VFL filling the gap of no Thursday night football. I enjoyed being able to watch Footscray v GWS last week, and the production value of the Foxtel broadcast was far far superior to the channel 7 broadcast of Casey Box Hill a couple of weeks back that felt like it was filmed on an iPhone streamed back to the truck on 3G.

    I would play bbb and weids for a half each- excellent training run given the big game is Sunday.  Allows another look and match sim, but keeps one or both fit enough for selection.  Same for the medical sub.

    Can’t wait to watch Casey tomorrow night. Will be keeping a close eye on Bowey and Weed. Chandler and Bedford

    7 news said something along the lines that Melksham ✔️, and Jones ???, would be playing for Casey.

    I’m guessing it’s Melksham to make way for Ben Brown, and Jones will now be managed to get him through the season and hopefully into the big dance. Will be interesting to see who replaces Jones (Sparrow or Chandler?).

    Bedford probably a big chance for that spot too

    Jones and Melksham can both have an important role at Casey.

    They are leaders and would really straighten up the young players.

    Jones can get back and help with the midfield, and Melksham can help the forward structure. They may enjoy it.

    Their experience will set up young players for the big stage and both will be waiting in the wings if MFC are injury hit.

    If form comes back to them, they get a call them up. 

    Be great if they can also play next year in Casey, for the same reason, of giving a bit back. Jonesy, midfield coach and player.

    Casey has a chance of a grandfinal birth, given their good start to the season and our list.

    Casey would have had to "start" around Christmas time to give birth in late September.

    I can't believe there is no news on Casey's line up for tonight's game, keeping their cards close to their chest or is this standard procedure?

    I reckon they will leave Jones home any interstate trip.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
