Who will be the sub?

Casey listed Harmes & Tmac as inj.

but if our emergencies only Harmes and Turner didn’t play for Casey today?

so surely it’s Harmes?

harmes wasn't listed as injured

 

Keep an eye on Bailey Humphrey (#19). We were keen on him in last years draft. He went pick 6. Gippsland Power boy. Just going this year (4 games, 33 disposals). Word is that he’s not happy to n QLD. Trac did coffee with him in Adelaide 3 weeks back.

Promising young kid. He was the reason we were trying to trade up the draft. Strongly built inside mid with good forward craft. Similar to Trac actually but less polished by foot when on the outside. If we don’t package up our picks come draft time, I’d be all for trading our first rounder for him (as in take Freos pick 5ish to draft and trade out pick 18ish for him). Getting a pick 6 who we were keen on for that would be a steal.

Reckon there’s a good chance there are more Dees here than Suns. 

Who is surprised by that. 
But by all means let’s continue with this failed experiment.

Confirmed Turner in for Hibberd.

Not surprised. GC have gone mega tall and Hibbo is clearly not 100% right. No point pushing him when they don’t have an ideal matchup. 


And looks like Harmes the sub

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
