    Firstly the first thing I'll say is that the bulldogs will be the benchmark of the VFL with great players like Wallis, West, Ugle-Hagen and co and Casey will be a lot better when they get our quality VFL players out on the park like Zaharkis and co.

    Team

    B: D.Smith, Ellison, McVee

    HB: Baker, 51, Freeman

    C: Howes, Dunstan, Woewodin

    HF: Melksham, van Rooyen, Rosman

    F: Moniz-Wakefield, Weideman, M.Brown

    FOLL: Bell, White, Laurie

    IC: Munro, Goonan, Quigley, Grey, 54, 69 (sudanese player)

    Goals: 4  M.Brown, 1 Dunstan, Howes, van Rooyen, Weideman

     

    D.Smith - Unassuming player, took a speccy but was otherwise quiet.

    McVee - Only touched the ball a couple of time, plenty to work with

    Baker - Started off well but died out of the game.

    Howes - showed some good signs particually early.

    Dunstan - Went ok but I expected more from him.

    Woewodin - Played well particually early gave a great chase down tackle.

    Melksham - Disappointing never got going and missed a goal he would normally kick.

    van Rooyen - Showed some signs considering he had limited opportunites. Took a great contested mark and done a great chase down tackle to go with his goal.

    Rosman - Is a worry doesn't seem to get a lot of the ball, needs to improve dramatically to keep his spot on the list.

    Moniz-Wakefield - Quiet and missed a sitter.

    Weideman - Played a fair bit in the ruck. Went OK without being special.

    M.Brown - Just knows where the goals are a perfect replacement for Fritsch if he gets injured.

    Laurie - Went ok plenty to work with not out of his depth.

    Hey Werridee, thanks for your efforts today, much appreciated.

    But tell me, what happened to the great depth we are supposed to have (not including the extra VFL players)?It doesn't sound like any of these guys will be pushing for senior selection any time soon.

    Probably under selling the depth of the bulldogs they have as good as depth as anyone. Mitch.Brown is close to selection, his 4 goals can't be ignored. We missed the strength of Daw in the ruck.

    They dominated the midfield and games are won in  the midfield and our midfield is young except for Dunstan and White who really isn't a midfielder. Give them time Howes, Laurie, Woewodin look promising. The bulldogs were top of the table last year I don't see that changing. If we played a lesser side we could have very well won.

    I wonder how much scope there is of playing those top up players every week of the season? The rules seem a bit vague.

    With the Melbourne injury list probably at it longest in a couple of years, it certainly wasn’t the strongest Casey team out there in the park. 

    Kade Chandler, Majak Daw, Michael Hibberd, Jake Lever, Harrison Petty, Trent Rivers and Daniel Turner are all missing through injury/unavailability  by my calculations. Also none of the new top up players although it’s not clear as to whether they’re eligible yet.

    Happy to be proven wrong but there’s no indication the former afl players we’ve added to our top up list will actually play for Casey. They’re all making more money with less work playing local footy. We can’t afford Zaharakis, Lonie, Reid, Moore! Buntine will play and Conca we might be able to talk in to some Casey footy given he’s around the group, most likely he plays local footy or has a rest. Not the others.

    They’re only signed in case we start having injuries and covid cases and get down towards the bare minimum.

    They desperately need to play him on a half back flank and teach him how to defend and contest. He’ll never learn the game on the wing or half forward.

    It will be interesting who gets a senior debut for the Demons later this season.

    I think Woewodin, Laurie, Howes and van Rooyen are all possibilities if they perform well at Casey. Nevertheless, we shall wait and see.

     Why have you signaled out one player and given him a label.

    That's my understanding, they stay at local level and only play at if needed.

    Well that's a shame. Casey really haven't got the depth to cover our injuries. I thought with Zaharakis, Lonie, Reid and Moore we could push for the flag but without them the Bulldogs will beat us like they did last night.

    I think these added blokes like Lonie and Zaharakis are AFL Covid impact cover as opposed to being Casey recruits for 2022. Casey in 2022 will be AFL listed plus guys like Munro, Buntine, Freeman, White, Etc.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
