17 in the main squad.

4 in the light duties, Hibbo, McVee, Fritsch, JVR.

2 in rehab, Chandler and Verral. 

K.Turner doing his own program.

A morning game of soccer after some running.

Those who played for Casey aren't down.

Schache has damaged a right wrist, large black supprt on it. Came on the field late. Only marking with left, doing some work and kicking with a personal trainer.

All those on light duties, including Chandler have joined the main squad for skills training. 

They are looking sharp.

Now they are into longer runs, Chandler has stepped aside.

    For someone who is apparently struggling with something, Chandler is playing bloody sensational football. Same goes for Fritta. 
     

    JVR on light duties not a surprise. Wondering if he’s going to get a rest this week. He won’t make it to September without proper breaks.

    Yep. Him and McVee could do with a rest within the next two weeks.

    "Yep. Him [JVR] and McVee could do with a rest within the next two weeks. "

    By " a rest " do you mean playing at Casey or just vegging out?

    interesting to know who is more lethal shooting for goal Kade or Fritter. So good to have 2 sharp shooters in the forward line. Kade's field kicking is also fantastic. I don't remember him being as good at Casey.

    Disappointing to hear about Schache. Looks like Petty is a straight in this weekend.

    over the years I have noticed that while you may get more time to kick at VFL level you seldom get the same space as you do at AFL level.

    Chandler is showing the knack of finding that space and it's paying off

    Petty wasn't at training, which was a concern as well.

    Given that Schache was still training, without using his hand, there is still a possibility.

    He’s not out of concussion protocol yet so maybe that’s why he isn’t training?

    Was Spargo training?

    Sorry if this has been addressed before, but does the "Concussion Protocol" (which sounds like a rejected Jason Bourne movie title) mean that players are not allowed to train until the 12 day minimum period has expired?

    Not totally sure but I think training is treated the same as a game.

    Chandler looked like he had some ankle issues at the end of the game on Saturday, so not a surprise he was having light training today.

    Confidence is a wonderful thing.

    After 5 goals the milkshake might get a run as well.

    This is probably the game to select him and make him sub for his 99th game for the Dees.

    BOG for Casey and hasn't played a lot lately so reasonably fresh legs if called upon.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
