In recent years, there’s been a build up of rivalry between the Casey Demons and the Box Hill Hawks and this weekend the two sides go bush to Wonthaggi. After their surprise defeat at home to Richmond last week, Casey will be desperate to win against the undefeated Hawks to retain a top four placing. It won’t be easy.

Tough game this week. But the Casey team should be fired up after last weeks loss. Assume Laurie as sub again. Potentially: 

D.Smith. Tomlinson. Adams. 
J.Smith   D.Turner  *Buntine 
Woey jnr Dunstan *Steele
Howes Tmcd Melksham
Anw Bbb Jefferson
*Bell Harmes *Munro

Int. Sestan. *Grey *Valentine *Edwards *Z.Duursma

What’s your team WERRIDEE??

White is back this week

 

That is a very strong VFL team should give the Hawks a good run.!!!

Surely Laurie or Harmes are the sub this week. 
 

Really keen to see Zane Duursma step up for this one. 

The sub should play this week because the seniors are on a Saturday and the reserves are on a Sunday.


What's wrong with Munro? When is he supposed to be back?

The undefeated Hawks have a very strong lineup that’s been bolstered by a few players coming down from their AFL team. This is going to be a tough contest.

White is back this week

What happened to White?  Injury I assume?  I couldn't see any news with a quick search, but he wasn't in the side.  It's been bugging me for weeks.  

(not bugging me enough to take the time to do a proper search, obviously 😁 )

Where would George Grey be playing when dropped from Casey? I really rate this guy.

I believe George Grey and White are both linked to Cranbourne. And Munro? There was an article saying he played a couple of games there last year and kicked 5 in one. Named in best last week so if available I would think he will be in this week...despite team sheet which is often off.

Had to have his left knee (don't hold me to which one but pretty sure it was left lol) cleaned out.

 

Yes both very strong line ups.  Will be a close one inv.  Agree with comments re George Grey.  He is often one of the best and has developed really nicely over the past 2 years.  Would be first back in if a space is available.  They must rate Max Gregory (or junior Bowey as I call him) to have him in before other more seasoned teammates.  Showed good traits with the footy this year.

  • 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.
