I thought Laurie was suggested by some as being in line for promotion.

Wonder why he's out.

Hope young Woey can be right for the GF

Weideman as principal ruck going up against Brisbane's number 3 ruck 

Edited by Diamond_Jim

Woey presumably still feeling the effects of the concussion caused by the thuggish  Ladhams.

I wonder what is up with Laurie?

Some have suggested that we look at drafting Jack Bell as a backup ruck for the Demons, but he's only named as an emergency for this game which suggests he may not be rated that highly.

Those suggesting drafting Bell are either totally clueless or have never seen him play.

Re Bell, I have seen him play quite a bit so I must fit into the clueless group. I think he has shown steady improvement...if the improvement continues, which I expect, he may well have merit.

 

 

BURY MY HEART AT CASEY?

Post-apocalypse and the vampire banana-benders are still after blood. Question is will the few survivors rally?  And send the horde of speculators, carpet baggers,  condominium sales staff, eye-gougers and Zorko-ites back across the border to Christopher Skase Land?

Round 1 ... be there!

Can't see any upside in playing TMac today. Smith maybe.. simply to get some more forward time into him

Help winning Casey a premiership maybe? I’d call that upside.

VFL premierships are irrelevant. It's a training group.

We have played in many of them over the years including the old Reserves comp but they don't contribute where it counts.

Lions and the likes of Matho and Robbo have everything to play for today. A spot in the Prelim next week whereas our listed AFL players are probably playing for a spot on next years list. Its a shame some of the better performing Casey players did not get games in the ones during the year. Seems they can't get into the ones and the players in the one's who can't get a kick and when they do turn it over can't get into the Casey team. Work it out.

Why does the Casey fwd line look better than the firsts?

😩😭

He won't cut at AFL level. He could be a poor man's Chris Woodman.

He tries hard & maybe has shown steady improvement but he can't mark, kick or handball which may hamper his development somewhat.

Looks like the VFL has been bumped from the TV today. Channel 7 going with the passing of the Queen coverage l, because heaven knows there hasn't been enough of that over the last 24 hours....

PASSING OF QUEEN COVERAGE HAS BEEN GOING ALL DAY AND NIGHT ON ch & SINCE IT WAS ANNOUNCED

MUST BE A LOT OF EYEBALLS TO SELL STUFFF TO

Sorry if it’s already been talked about, but it’s just Bowey and McDonald who won’t be able to play next week if we win right? But we could play Melksham as he’s played over 7 games?

Thanks for that. Couldn't see it in the guide.

He’s mostly dropped because 4 talls just won’t work in the forward line so Weid has to ruck to open the forward line up.

I think there’s probably better state league options but the way he was developing suggests to me he’ll be a good VFL ruck in a year or 2. The difference between good VFL rucks and half the back up rucks on afl lists is just good luck so it wouldn’t shock me

That's my understanding.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
