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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
