There is no official market yet for this week’s game between Casey Demons and UWS Giants - at this stage the time venue have yet to be announced and the odds of the game taking place are not very good.

Bad news for the players lining up for promotion to the AFL.

    The following teams have a bye

    Aspley, Box Hill Hawks, Gold Coast Suns, Port Melbourne, Werribee, Williamstown

    A game against Port or Willy would be nice

    We do not play Port all year and are scheduled to play Willy in the second last round.

    MFC/Casey needs to make it happen.

    One game in 6 weeks is not good enough

    Frankston are slated to play the Swans. Perhaps the fixture could be flipped so that we play the Dolphins. Both Giants & Swans have 8 games played. We've just completed 6.

    How can the MFC/Casey make it happen, they could request it but there is a big chance it would just fall on deaf ears. The revamped VFL is just a complete joke.

    The VFL comp is hopelessly compromised from a ladder perspective. Just make it Vic only for the rest of the season and let's move on

    In the grand scheme of things, it would now seem to have been a very bizarre year to create this wider competition.

    I have been saving this for nearly 9 months now. Who ever thought it was a good idea to start an interstate competition in the year of Covid certainly does belong it the rocket scientist club.

    Would you please stop with sane ideas DJ. Talk like that will never get you a job at AFL!

    Who or what are the UWS Giants? More specifically, does the name mean it's a merger between the University of Western Sydney and the GWS Giants? Or is UWS a sponsor of the Giants' seconds team? If the latter, have we ever had a name like that before (ie, a "insert sponsor's name" Magpies, or equivalent)?

    I hope you are correct Jack, because this these fixtures are not only compromising Casey, but also the Melbourne Demons.

    Would surprise me if all the Giants VFL players were here in the bubble. They have jobs outside football.

    Perhaps they will be allowed top up players

    One of the Casey boys, George Grey played as a top up player for the GWS reserves side last weekend.

    Who is on top of the ladder via vfl flashscore Bulldogs 1st followed by Southport, Casey then Box Hill . SCOREPRO 1st Bulldogs followed BH Hawks, Southport then Casey . 2021 Vfl mens Casey 1st Casey fpllowed by Bulldogs, Southport then Willamstown.

    At end end of the year being 2-3 games down is that going to cost us top spot? (assuming we are undefeated). Perhaps at the end of the season the VFL staff are waiting for another covid lockdown. The reserves comp. is a joke. Casey didn't need a bye last week , they could have played another team with a bye. Perhaps that doesn't make sense to the Vfl. Senior teams need to  give there listed players a run and the players need run to prove they are worthy of senior selection sometime soon.

    The lights are fine. Night games have been played at Casey Fields for at least ten years.

    I hope some Demonlanders can make it down to report on the game (I’m working).

    This team may well have beaten our senior team in the Neeld years. (I'm not sure whether that says more about this team or the past).

    I wonder how serious Mitch Brown's injury from last week is.

    He’s not on the official injured list so it can’t be too serious … could it?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
