Mitch Brown well in mix to play senior forward. I would be flabbergasted if he played back

That's the thing though Picket where are they all going to play? It was likely a very tall side before they sent Weid back.

    Well, selection at Casey just got even more interesting. I can see Jack Hutchins being pushed out but the question then becomes who plays down back. Mitch Brown? And regardless of W'dee's opinion I hope we continue to educate and develop Bradtke.

    Hutchins won't be pushed out Bradtke will he won't be at the club next year.

    so the side should look like this.

    B: LOCKHART, HUTCHINS, JETTA

    HB: BOWEY, J.SMITH, D.SMITH

    C: DECLASE, MUNRO, BAKER

    HF: VANDENBERG, B.BROWN, CHANDLER

    F: BEDFORD, WEIDEMAN, M.BROWN

    FOLL: DAW, JONES, MELKSHAM

    IC: WHITE, ROSMAN, LAURIE, TURNER

    Casey boys mainly playing suburban footy this round. 19 AFL LISTED in the Casey team.  (18 probably given 23rd man medi sub call up). Like to see Zac Foot still given a run.

    Do pay attention, the team listed is Werridee's so we don't really know the make up of the Casey side yet.

    I know it's my team but there will be 19 players they are all coming back except the knee rehabbers in Hore, Tomlinson and Neitschke. It will be interesting to see what they do with the regular Casey players in Foot, Grey, Sparks, Ellison and Machaya

    Right so it is at Casey. So the next question is can we go ?

    Yep restrictions ease midnight tonight. Should be allowed a crowd. Not sure of capacity. Probably 26.5% if you’re standing upside down with 3 masks on.

    I would go further to say that that VFL team would be better than a majority of the AFL teams we have sent out over the period between 2005 to 2015.

    This team would put GOLD COAST SUNS to the sword and maybe NORF!

    You’d expect at least two of BBB, Chandler, Jetta and Jones will come out as med. sub and emergency for our AFL team.  Jones and Jetta perhaps (?) given the absence of VFL over the last month.

    Thanks KC that is some team we are putting out on the Park. That has to be the best VFL side that we have ever fielded. Go Casey..!!!

    However, because Casey plays on Sunday, it’s possible for all players selected to take part in the case where the medical sub is not required.

    @ KC love your work keeping tabs on all things VFL, any updates on how Bowey goes would be most appreciated, Am hoping he gets a debut in Seniors at some point, but know he is probably duelling with Spargo for a spot.

    Correct daisy.  This from the Casey website:  "Make sure that you get in early if, you'd like to come and watch the boys play Sunday, as we only have a limit of 1000 spectators due to COVID restrictions."

    Anyone else excited watching Casey today?

    Some new faces playing their first games today in Kye Declase,  Daniel Turner and Bailey Laurie. Really intrigued in watching Declase who's been in very strong for Werribee this year and someone who's ready to step up when.called upon.

    Brown, Weideman and Nathan Jones are 3 I'm keen to see in action as well.

    The two lesser names I am interested in are Deakyn Smith and Rosman. I think they could both make it, on the little I have seen of them.

    Today is probably an audition for BB and Weid.

    • CASEY: Sydney

      The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After a disappointing loss in Alice Springs the Demons return to the MCG to take on the Magpies in the annual King's Birthday Big Freeze for MND game. Who comes in and who goes out?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
