Go dees. My wish list:
- Fritsch to score minimum of 3 snags
- defensive pressure well up in the midfield especially.
- Lever to get some touch back.
- Keep them to under 55.
- Oliver to have a blinder and overtake Cripps in the Coaches award, back to back!
- Sparrow to hit some finals Sparrow form. 
-Win by 60+.

    We'll play 1 good quarter, strangle them defensively for the rest of the game and conserve our energy for Freo next week

    Dees by 40 points

    I wish this was an earlier game. Unfortunately I'm going to have to miss today. 

    But like last week when I said this would be a game we'd drop a few years ago, I'm confident of s great win because it would be embarrassing to lose.

    Just no more injuries please.

    Already voted.  have a wedding tonight so cant make the game.  Best team in the league getting the worst time slots, WTF?

    Anyway, hope the boys switch on, knowing there are many hungry players at Casey if they dont.  Today is an opportunity to work on inside 50, forward leading patterns and front half defence.

    Hold them to under 24 points and put on a cricket score would be my goal, with continued forward connection development.

    Time to fine-tune our forward half connection for the tougher fixtures ahead.   Narrm comfortably by 8 to 10 goals will do.

    This weekend we should be playing in Alice Springs, of all rounds, this should be played here

    Makes sense

    Giving it a fixed weekend, a fixed timeslot and guaranteed FTA it could become a TV ratings bonanza.

    Channel 7 did an excellent job in 2018 (?) for example.

    It could also serve as a week during which Alice celebrates indigenous culture.

    Throw in a VFL match as well as a free event for those in town

    It's the worst team in the leagues' home game...

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
