I wonder if Harley will be playing for Casey or is it another outfit. I'd rookie him now and play him when he's ready.

    He cost the club 50k for his absolute stupidity. 

    You honestly think the club will want him back...?

    He already burnt us, not again.

    I hope he has sorted himself out and can find a club. It won't be Casey though.

    Three strikes and you're out.

    I wish Harley well, but I would be stunned if another AFL club gave him another chance.

    Melbourne paid his 50k fine ???.i wouldn't have.

    He let the club down and he knew what he was doing. He'd be lucky to get a shot even at Ess or Saints.

    Some people are just too forgiving.

    I’m glad you’re not in our list management team then.

    Highly unlikely.

    Or, as they're saying in MCC circles, "Harley unlikely".

    Hope he gets his life back together, but he burnt us so he’s not going to have anything to do with us again.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion, there's no need to get personal.

    A lot of people made mistakes with the hubs. Harvey was not the lone ranger.

    A VFL list is not an AFL list anyway.

    Good luck to him if he wants to take his life in this direction

    Is there any source of information or just conjecture?

    It was reported in Zero Hanger.

    Based on what little I know, I wouldn't be averse to him playing with Casey.  From what I recollect, his attitude and application around the club had been reported as pretty good bar the one incident at the end.

    I'm in this camp as well, I was so excited to have him at the club and felt like he was getting to a good place. He was always going to be in the last gasp saloon, I did think Goodwin's comments about his fitness/endurance was the most damning thing, not the breach of covid curfew. He was never going to be a guy that handled lockdown well. I truly wish him well.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
