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? 

the source is me.  

A lot to like about Turner the more you watch him.

Yep, he's a natural 

Weid finally took a mark and led to a great scoring chance that Steele smacked out of bounds. Harmes continues to think he’s Dusty with increasingly diminishing returns.

JVR can’t hold a mark either but his attack at the contest has been first class.

Laurie gets the benefit and converts. Casey in to the diagonal breeze this quarter 

 

Credit to Oskar Baker who has looked at Harmes’ failed attempts to break tackles and decided he can do the same with equally awful results 


Big Spencil going alright in the ruck

If required, Turner is already a more than adequate replacement for Lever.

Harmes has been awful.

Hopefully people don't get sucked in by his stats because he's butchered the footy going forward and has been pinged several times for holding the ball exactly as you described.

He'll never learn.

I think you could cut him some slack under these conditions.

Absolutely grim defensive work starting with Mitch Brown not manning the man gifts Carlton a goal 

Casey a risk of thinking the wind will do it for them

His inside grunt work has been good. It suits players of his ilk. Watching him closely hoping he can come in next week.

The issue though is attempted don't argues and all times and trying to take the tackler on when there have been options around him to give off.

In these conditions it's simple basic footy that's been taught from auskick, just get the footy on the boot and get it forward.

 


 

Weideman has had a big 2nd half. For a big bloke in these conditions hes been quite clean below knees.

I like him better when he's playing higher up the ground.

He had far more time and space but Harmes took the simple option, got it to JVR who crashed 2 in the pack and created the space for Steele to finish.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
