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

    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.

    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: 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.
