Good to see the Casey game day threads are of the same calibre as the AFL game day threads. ?

I beg to differ, I watched him very closely today and I was super impressed. He ran his AZZZZRSE OF presented well clunked marks, worked hard, praised team mates and generally was very very involved.

A convincing win by a side that hasn’t played for 5 weeks is much more than an ordinary win. A foolish post. 

as quoted earlier a heap of afl listed players against a team of youngsters ,afl players train to be ready for a call up to the ones so 5 weeks off does not mean a thing

Any post that starts with these words, regardless of what follows these words, should be given a big fat miss.

An absolute second half goalfest. LoLo may be a stylish way to get your lockdown home delivery but the floating rear suspension is so passé. Pump up your shocks!

Enjoyed the Browns' contributions, Mitch unfortunately out with an inopportune injury, Ben showing something up forward and Campbell would be a major improvement in the big league. Talks common sense with more than a hint of authority.

Plenty to like about  from the guys that played, both veterans and rookies. Is Aaron Vandenberg a chance of a recall at some stage? Body and Soul player at his best.

He might be a good option high half forward manning a crafty hb type.  Will rotate through the middle.  Think he is back in the queue behind Jones.

Essendon had 13 AFL listed players out there. 3 or 4 of our old boys excepted and I doubt they were any younger. Still, you’ve got an angry agenda, so whatever.

didn't think I'd say it...but in the heat of September there might be a role for the body player like Vandenberg.

Very good game today

Bradtke down back was interesting. Didn't do too much but didn't make any mistakes.

Cannot see any candidate to replace Hibberd next year if needed. May need to trade for that player.

Baker is becoming good at this level.

Maynard?

He was a big reason we got to the Prelim in 2018… was brought back into the team around finals time, and performed brilliantly.

Nuh

31 pressure acts

Jones doesn't have the legs to cover the ground and fill that gap

Spot on. It's not a like for like.

As well as covering the ground, much of the value of those small guys is to get a hand in here and there to disrupt play. It requires reflexes/quickness. 

ANB is doing this consistently, even when he's having an off game.

Jones is probably relying on someone to go down to get a game.

All KP forwards get gifted goals it is called team work. You also have to be there in the right spots. He had a good game and is a proven top level forward who had not played for a month. Good effort IMO.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
