Thats a nice times bye for the boys.

3 bye’s in a row! That’s a great fixture! 

So this is what it’s like being an AFL love child club

Rnd 11.  Friday night match

Rnd 12. Friday night match

Rnd 13. Monday QB holiday match

Rnd 14. Bye

Rnd 15. Saturday night match

All matches on free to air, no Sunday games = More eyeballs watching us. For once we are actually giving our sponsors good value.

I feel like I'm in an alternate universe 

So by Round 15 we'll have had 10 FTA games and only 4 Foxtel games.

If I have a complaint, it's that only two of those 10 FTA games will have been Friday nights (and zero Thursday nights), only one of which was a home game and it will have been in Alice Springs.

By comparison, to the same point of the year St Kilda will have had one Thursday night game and two Friday night games, and two of those as home games at Marvel.

It's a very minor complaint TBH, given where we've come from. Plus further opportunities to come (albeit again mainly away games):

  1. Round 15 away to Essendon - they're playing on Sunday the previous week so would have to get them on a 5-day break to get a Friday night
  2. Round 16 home to GWS - not much competition that week for prime time (Geelong v Essendon?) so might get a Saturday night at best?
  3. Round 17 away to Port - has to be a good chance for a Friday night, or Thursday night if they're still happening that late in the season
  4. Round 18 home to Hawthorn - nope
  5. Round 19 away to GC - nope
  6. Round 20 home to the Dogs - another good chance
  7. Round 21 away to West Coast - possibly, but Perth games are so often on Sundays
  8. Round 22 home to Adelaide - nope
  9. Round 23 away to Geelong - will depend on ladder positioning going into that round.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
