Yes, I checked again this afternoon and the Foxtel guide is now showing the game, so it will be broadcast here in Sydney, after all.

With the exception of a few hundred who live close to linton street I don't expect many Dees supporters to turn up  to a late afternoon match in 34 degrees. Seems like cruel and unusual punishment to ask players to play a winter game in the conditions expected for Friday. I think there will be more for the Casey games against the Tigers. 

Reslly OD that's an interesting prediction. 
What if it's 34 vs Tigers also?

Sorry mate I'm not sure I follow - what negative comments? 

I've in general only ever been bullish on JVR & as for Casey, I was one of those who criticised the club/coaches for not playing our strong VFL players like Chandler in the 1sts more last year. Do you have me confused with someone else?  

Sorry Fr-ap yes May have misconstrued you. Possibly Orion. Profuse Apologies.

Thanks all

That (presumably ex-) mud heap - remember going to a match there circa 1965 - pouring rain, cold as charity, mud even on the outer hill. 

Surely in this sort of heat they could play unlimited interchange.


Not sure if already mentioned, but the Bulldogs don't have a game this weekend because the Giants didn't want to travel. Instead they are playing an intraclub match. Hopefully this leaves them a touch underdone for Round 1.

No Shache

So Burgoyne has officially joined Casey. I hadn’t seen that confirmed.

So Kozzie has Trent and Byron Jnr to flat with and maybe good friend Henry next year.

How could he leave his mates and cousin?

Knew I’d miss one. 

Seems the rehabber's/injured are; Melky, Adams, J.Smith (underdone), Dunstan, Salem, and Fritta.

Interesting that Woey may get a run, as he had been in rehab for a few sessions.

That’s not a bad injury list. Only Fritta and Salem are best 22.


Great for the few Casey Demons players to get a run, a taste of the big league (speed, intensity, skill level) can only help them with their season.

Would love to see Burgoyne have an impact, and Munro.

Hope they all get a run.

I like that it isn't listed as a practice match but 6 25 minute quarters of match simulation with no time on. What does one make of that? Will there be tackling? I assume 4 umpires and unlimited rotations.

  • Whispering_Jack changed the title to Match Simulation vs St. Kilda FC
 

Everyone will be watching only for the Grundy/ gawn double act.

A pretty good lineup. Practically full strength. 

Just hope no serious injuries

Yes, will be full contact.

My guess is they’ll go best 22 for 2 periods, then sit the veterans. 

Go with a solid side for the next 2 periods making sure everyone who’s in contention for round 1 is getting a fair look in.

Then finish the last 2 periods by replacing everyone who started the game with the kids and Casey players.

Or they could just go 3 and 3 if it’s super hot.

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
