It’s their first year of senior footy. Get a grip.

Both coming from a long way back in terms of fitness. 
Jefferson is 6kg soaking wet playing as a key forward.

    Sestan and Jefferson not giving much to get excited about 

    Sestan has been ok in and under in the midfield and kicked a miracle goal. I’d hate to be any forward for Casey today, our kicking into 50 has been appalling. No chance. The one decent kick we’ve had in the second half Jeffo marked but shanked the kick on goal. I wouldn’t write them off based on today.

    I've liked Howes game today.

    He still couldn’t be sub or the carry over emergency if he played a full game for Casey. Can’t front up two hours later for an AFL match. 

    Agreed but Chookrat suggested that he flew up as sub. I merely clarified that he was at the venue regardless.

    Gee this is the worst defending I’ve seen from a Casey team in many a year. Lost their DNA a bit this year from games I’ve seen.

    A total lack of pressure. Smith under no pressure kicks 15m over the head of a leading forward. 1 GC against 4 Casey players. GC player naturally takes the mark. What is going on?

    Goal to Melksham but the floodgates have opened and it’s too late - 112 to 84

    Maybe not - Joel Smith gets his second.

    Your head. If you’ve watched any Casey this year (evidently not) you’d know these two guys have shown more than most young kids do early. Guess you’re one of those blokes who like to make a criticism no matter what though, hey?!

    And that’s after putting on nearly 12 kgs since last year.

    The commentator just said his turnover inside 50 was his first mistake today. He’s had 17 touches and I’m almost certain 16 have been terrible. 

    Correct.

    Those two clowns commentated to amuse themselves.

    I think I heard a pearler from them, when one said, " I think the best way to get a clearance is to have the ball" and then another was " when kicking for goal it's best to kick accurately".

    Getting back to White, I have never seen him play worse or kick worse. Hopefully it was just a bad day.

    I thought our best were Laurie, Howes, Woey and Tomlinson.

    a minor train wreck

    Could have won if we kicked straight but the forward set up was dysfunctional. As usual too much forward pocket delivery. Attacking players not willing to cut back to the centre hot spot 35 out. Forwards rarely on the lead

    Laurie and Spargo had decent games

    Well, in reality both statements are true. Lol

    And where does that game plan come from?

    I suspect White may have had some 2nd game soreness/blues guys after a long layoff and clean out of that knee.

    Maybe a bit of strength and match fitness / conditioning lacking.

    Remembering that most players who come into a season off a knee or something that's held em back from a normal full pre-season usually don't perform at their usual standards in some or more games on their return.

    We are witnessing a little of this imv with May at the moment.  Fingers crossed he's on the up and up though.

    White might need to be managed (off the bench for alot less game time?) at some point depending on how he pulls up today.

    Might be best not to judge him too harshly today given the above.

    • 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?

      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.
