    I saw most of game when not distracted by kids. Lacklustre performance by Casey. The Footscray smalls did the damage.

    Casey players available next week include Munro , badly missed, and Grey. Not Corey Ellison who has moved to Williamstown and kicked 4 on weekend. I believe Mitch White will not be back yet.

    Despite the result, I'm predicting a win on Saturday.

    I believe KC said we had 16 demons out there and no Woey who was getting a broken finger repaired. So the line up would be something like this.

    FF: Sestan Scache Jeffo
    HF: AMW  JVR
    C; Howes JJ
    HB: D. Smith D. Turner Hibberd
    FB: J. Smith Adams? K. Turner
    Foll: KFW  Dunstan?
    Int: Verrell

    That's a lot of young talls and an incredibly light on midfield if there's none of the better Casey mids in Munro, White or Grey.

    Whilst I hope they can win games which needs a bit more Casey and Melbourne experience in the middle I do like the idea of our young talls and mids actually getting a chance to be important structural players. Now he's had a taste of AFL footy I'd love to see Laurie in the midfield at Casey and getting 25 touches a week.

    I noticed Jed Adams played on the weekend?

    Any idea how he went?

    I didn't really notice Jed Adams, but I wouldn't make too much of that.

    One player I did notice is young Charlie Peters. Came on in the last quarter, great smother which resulted in a goal and instrumental in another. Tried his heart out. Well done young man on a disappointing day.

    Mitch White (Captain) and Jimmy Munro (Vice Captain)  have been named to lead the Casey Demon's VFL side in season 2023.

    Jack Bell and George Grey are new additions to the leadership group.

    Just had look at our fixture.

    We play our first three games, and four of our first 5 games at Casey, which is a nice little leg up.

    I wonder if the sub on Friday night will play 2 games (assuming they only play limited AFL minutes).

    Do the rules allow it? Is it players/club choice to manage how they want or is there some formula regarding total allowable minutes played per weekend or something like that?

    The good news is, EVERY VFL game in 2023 will be streamed live via AFL.com.au and their app.

    That would also involve a flight out of Brisbane late tonight or early tomorrow morning. 

    Doing that...flying them back...wasn't an issue last year...a couple were quite touch and go in terms of flights.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
