The VFL Practice Matches are underway, and Casey Demons are taking on Carlton VFL tomorrow. 

Mar 3: Carlton v Casey Demons (Ikon Park, Carlton, 12.50pm)

This would be a good opportunity to see our fringe, young, up-and-coming players and check out who is close to breaking in. In particular, I am keen to see how Bailey Laurie has progressed. 

Would anyone know if these games are being streamed anywhere (Kayo/ app/ YouTube)?

    I'm going to try if it's open to spectators. I'm not real good with reports though!

    Strange timing from an MFC viewpoint.

    Friday or Saturday would have made a lot more sense for those on the AFL extended bench/fringe

    It must be difficult being a Casey listed player these days. You have to have a full time job because football doesn't pay the bills, but then you have to front up for a VFL practice match at midday on a Thursday or travel interstate on a Friday for a poorly fixtured match during the season.

    I'm here. 10 mins to go in the 1st and we're up 19-7.

    I'm struggling to recognise players, lots of high numbers

    I'm in the shade which is currently the Carlton goals. Maj just jumped so high at the centre bounce it looked like the other guy was on his knees.

    We just kicked another but can't see who it was, I need binoculars!

    I am surprised you need to make that comment DJ. We all know what a [censored] up the feeder competition is. Our mistake is trying to apply logic to it.

    Spot on, it makes you wonder if that it is not the plan. I have this vision of them putting all the ideas in a hat and then drawing out the winning idea no matter what it says.

    Quarter time Casey up 5.2.32 to Carlton 1.1.7

    The majority of the play since I got here halfway through the 1st has been up the other end in our forward half, only saw it get deep into Carlton's forward line once for that goal.

    Cant find any info on guernsey numbers online, the Casey site says to check closer to the VFL season so I'm flying blind here unfortunately. Does Mitch Brown's hair go curly when it grows out? I think I saw him run the length of the field. Also looked like Weid's kicking style slotting a nice one up the other end.

    Can't tell if Dunstan is playing Demon Jack as I wouldn't have the faintest what he looks like and with no numbers I'm up the creek without a paddle

    Would luv to have seen a line up for this match!?!

    surely at 2 hours before game time a team sheet can be reported!

    That assumes they care about the fans NC.

    Do our listed players wear their Melbourne numbers when playing for Casey? 

    The players I thought were Mitch Brown and Weid are wearing 38 and 26 so things might have suddenly got easier!!

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
