Great fixturing. Both of our games are basically the same time 😑

    The Southport Sharks are a remarkable club given their location in what was essentially rugby league territory when the club was first formed in the early 60s. They have a great facility at their HQ and substantial local support. The VFL side is coached by Steve Daniel and his assistants are Matthew Primus and Matthew Lappin. They will give the Casey Demons a good run for their money.

    I’m confident about Casey this week although it’s a pity that the fixturing won’t allow Melbourne fans to get down and watch this historic game between the clubs. Whoever dreamt up a clash game between AFL and VFL affiliates should have their heads read.

    Anyhow, full of admiration for Casey who beat Box Hill on their own dung hill last week with a reduced number of MFC players due to the Covid situation and with four local boys making their debut with the club.

    What is happening to Hibbo?

    Cooked.

    When you're constantly injuring your calf at 32 years of age then your chance of coming back to AFL level fully fit is very slim.

    This is like the 3rd time he's had the set back already this year.

    Old man injury in football terms.

    Good to see Ellison get his spot back unlucky to be dropped. Looking forward to seeing how Turner goes I rate him.

    That’s a super strong side. That forward line is too good for VFL, particularly if Bedford floats through there. Still no Woewodin though, was his head knock still causing concussion issues? It looked nasty at the time. I don’t recall hearing him listed in our injury report?

    EDIT: My mistake Woewodin is listed as one week for concussion on the injury list. Hope he’s recovering well.

    Still a strong side but it should be remembered that Bedford almost certainly won't play as he is more likely to be the sub and Dunstan probably won't play either as the carry over emergency.

    Gee when you look at that league it really doesn't make sense why they aren't playing a reserves comp.

    14 of the AFL clubs are effectively fielding a reserves team either directly or by proxy, and they are travelling across three states. Take them out and you still almost have a full VFL grade with 7 standalones.

    Also, why do 3 clubs have a bye? Surely this comp should be playing as many games as possible to ensure that AFL stand by players are match fit and in form?

     

    Anyway, good luck Casey!

    Will still be given his chances to get back into the side but there’s a lot of competition for places in Melbourne’s defence and it won’t be easy for him.

    Yep, I hadn’t realised both games were basically at the same time. Dumb stuff from the AFL, put the VFL game a couple of hours after the AFL game and not only can fans watch both but subs and emergency players could play! Argh! The AFL make the easy so hard sometimes. Is there some super important event at Casey at 4 that stops them from playing then?!

    This will be our biggest test so far.

    Agree. Calf injuries can be career killers for older players. Might see a retirement call if it lingers.

    Not the worst thing to play your last game in a winning GF. Pretty good memory.

    An absolute joke of a competition, though jokes are supposed to be humorous.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
