Big game. Casey are flying undefeated while the Suns are % out of the 8 currently 11th and last week beat top 8 team GWS by 9 goals so it might be our biggest test yet.

Possible team:

B: D.Smith, Ellison, Buntine
HB: Hunt, Tomlinson, Rivers
C: Baker, Dunstan, Woewodin
HF: Melksham, van Rooyen, Laurie
F: Moniz-Wakefield, M.Brown, Chandler
FOLL: Bell, White, Munro
IC: McVee, Rosman, Grey, Josh Smith, Steele

    • Demonland changed the title to CASEY: Rd 14 vs Gold Coast Suns

    Isn't that a little pessimistic? I would have thought Southport was the big test. Relatively settled team, for VFL, heading north. Gold Coast will be a couple short as emergencies to go to Adelaide, I expect.

    Weather predicted is sunny and 22 degrees...biggest problem should be sunstroke.

    Shame no Majak.

    Apart from no Majak, it looks an extremely strong team and should be good viewing tomorrow.

    Strange fixture

    Next week we play Port at Casey (no Burra burgers this year)

    Southport weren't a real test we flogged them. I think Gold Coast have more quality players.

    I think in the emergencies Day will play but I'm not sure anyone else will play. I think they will travel with 2 emergencies.

    The Gold Coast started off poorly but they have won their last 2 games against Collingwood and GWS. They wont be a push over, Budarick, Sharp, Constable, Macpherson, Thompson, Day, J.Corbett, Sexton, Andrew and Tsitas are all quality players.

    Possible Gold Coast side

    B:  Foggo, Thompson, Budarick

    HB: Nicholls, Brock, McLennan

    C: Sharp, Constable, Faulkhead

    HF: Macpherson, Day, J.Corbett

    F: Sexton, Andrew, Conroy 

    FOLL:  Moyle, Tsitas, Oea 

    IC: Stone, M.Corbett, Bella, Murtagh, Harrington

    Josh.Smith is probably injured so I would replace him with Milford.

    Valentine and Baldi are the only 2 different inclusions to my possible side. Steele and Milford are emergencies.

    15 Melbourne listed players, that's a strong side.

    This is definitely a danger game. The Suns have more depth on their list at this point in time than they have had for several seasons.

    Couldn't the Suns field emergencies there's at least 1 or 2 players that won't play out of Atkins, Day, Fiorini and Hollands.

    The odd man out among the seven “ins” for Casey is 19 year old former Oakleigh Chargers tall Ryan Valentine. All of the other inclusions for this week are Melbourne listed players while 196cm tall Valentine has been brought in to basically cover for Josh Smith who was very impressive on debut recently but was injured in the game against Collingwood VFL a fortnight ago. Ironically, Valentine who is on the Old Scotch VAFA roster was previously on the Magpies’ VFL list. He is expected to lend a hand in the ruck and forward duties. He was at the Chargers in their 2019 premiership squad and remained in their squads through to last year therefore was a teammate of previous number 1 draft picks in Matt Rowell, Jamara Ugle-Hagan as well as other elite draft selections in Noah Anderson and Nick Daicos and some other well-credentialed picks including our own Bailey Laurie so he should feel right at home playing with Casey.

    You’re on the Gold Coast, the weather’s perfect and you’re not going to be there in person?

    I might get out there, depends on Mrs. Redlegs’ plans.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
