CASEY: Rd 21 vs Carlton

He's been playing at Doncaster in EFNL with Jamar so should have some football conditioning as it's a tough league. Will no doubt assist Casey but will he play enough games to qualify for finals?

    Fire.  Not sure we are talking about Josh.   Joel certainly is injured more often than not and we’re he not wouldn’t doubt have found a spot up forward by now.

    Apologies. Yes I must've skimmed straight over Josh and assumed it was Joel.

    AMW, Bedford & Chandler are all being “managed”.  Especially given they also had a bye last week. That’s no footy considering Chandler should be on the fringe of senior selection.
     

    With a full list aside from Tmcd, Dees have 19 listed players to play in VFL. I think we have played max.16 AFL listed and kept 7 spots for the VFL listed guys. (not sure if there is a max rule for AFL aligned clubs).

    I have been looking for some time for the rules that determine finals eligibility for VFL...can't find it on AFL website. Any ideas  where the rules can be found?

    Covid the most likely answer.

    Wildly incorrect.   Bedford and Chandler missing due to Covid.  Moniz-Wakefield out with a groin injury.

    Hadn’t heard anything about Bedford and Chandler having covid and being in isolation.  Has that been written or confirmed? It does appear the most likely reason given they’ve been key players at Casey this year, and not listed in the weekly injury discussion.  Any reference or source?

    Joel Smith starting well, one run down tackle and one lead up mark which he unfortunately missed. Looks threatening so far.

    Anyone else having issues with the streaming? I can get the other 2 live games to load but not the Casey game.

    Too unselfish weid. Would've liked him to just back himself with a kick for goal.

    Few senior players braving the conditions in the stands including Dogga. For a guy seemingly on the way out he does still seem very invested.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
