CASEY: Rd 03 vs Frankston


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

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.

KC I hope that Daniel Turner and Josh Schache are available to cover the height with TMac and Tomlinson possibly flying to Perth.

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?

They’ll definitely take one more player - most likely Tomlinson because Melksham needs game time.

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.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
