Everyone loves a local derby and the Casey Demons vs Frankston game on Sunday afternoon is the VFL’s quintessential local derby. The game looms as the perfect right of passage event leading to the game in Perth between Melbourne and the West Coast Eagles. 

Can Casey make it 3 and 0 at Casey Fields?

    I thought the Frankston supporters last year at Frankston were great.

    With the afl team in Perth and the sub/emergency unable to get back for this game, plus the injuries, a few of the Casey boys will get a run that would otherwise miss out.

    Will be a great game and I'm looking forward to it. Casey by 48.

    Last week Casey put in an all round team performance against Sydney despite being light on for AFL listed players.

    It will be interesting to see how they go against a stand alone VFL team. The Dolphins always give you value for your money.

    Yep no issues last year there.

    They did have the usual mosh pit yelling out dumbass abuse at our fellas & the umps but thats par for the course.

    The rest were just decent Demon folk plus the regular local stoners

    Great opportunity for Disco to stake his claim.

    Emergencies Melksham, Tomlinson and Dunstan named, but Jordon isn't so that's probably confirmation that he's MFC sub on Sunday. If they line up as selected it's a bit surprising we're only taking 23 to WA.

    We will take 24 at least. Tomlinson looks most likely to be travelling emergency.

    No Jordon named for Casey, so looks like he's the 23rd man. Just a question of who else from Melksham, Tomlinson and Dunstan travel to Perth?

    Does anyone know the nature of Kye Turner‘s injury? I don’t think he was mentioned in the weekly injury report.

    He would have been handy against his former club.

    A word of advice to Casey Demon fans coming out to Casey Fields today, after two weeks of pleasant sunny conditions at the VFL’s Fortress of Paim. Brace yourselves for some nasty weather - it’s wet and very windy and there’s a Sheep Graziers alert - the sort of weather that brings out the CDFSS in me because, these are the conditions that make for upsets which the Dolphins almost did last year in bleak weather. Mitch White would have been handy today.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • 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?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
