Werribee poses a definite threat to the Casey Demons’ top four aspirations. Last week, the VFL Tigers stormed home to become the first team to beat Gold Coast and they did it at the Avalon Airport Oval where the game will be played.

We certainly aren't getting the old character filled grounds

No but we do get to play on the runway.

Here's my crack at the possible Casey side.

 

B: D.Smith, Tomlinson, Adams

HB: Howes, D.Turner, Steele

C: Grey, White, Buntine

HF: Sestan, Schache, Moniz-Wakefield

F: J.Smith, Brown, Jefferson

FOLL: Bell, Laurie, Woewodin

IC: Valentine, Sheppard, Gregory, Baldi, Emile-Brennan

EMERG: Sheridan, Edwards, McRae 


Woewodim will play AFL

It’s still Chirnside Park even with a new name 

 

Dees premiership hero Kye Declase no doubt set for a big game

I'm confused. I'm pretty certain he didn't play in the Melbourne or Casey premiership team.

No but he played in the intraclub during the week off (I believe) and that’s good enough for me.

In Werribee. Great ground to watch footy at - beautiful location too down by the river.

I’m out in Werribee @binman - very frustrating as it was probably the one Casey game this year that would have been convenient for us in the west to get to!

Yep - we played the dogs at home, so no Whitten Oval game.

And we play Willy at home, so no game there either (which i'm spewing about - beautiful ground to watch footy at and a 15 min drive door to gate for me)

We're in West Footscray, was also hoping for some Casey fixtures out West. 

Will have to settle for catching a Coates Talent League game at Willy later this season.

I'd venture out for a Whitten Oval game, been a long, long time. 


I get that we want big, experienced bodies for Jefferson (and Sestan) to learn from, but it can't be good for Jefferson's development that he is effectively playing fourth tall forward (or shunted to the backline) at present. How much game time is he actually getting in the key forward posts?

Same goes for Woewodin, Howes and Laurie being forced on to the wings and flanks, instead of playing quality midfield time.

Jefferson regularly plays 2nd key forward, with BBB number one and Smith and Melksham working up the ground. He’s developing nicely but it lets us protect his body which is not JVR’s and needs to build to be capable of footy with men.
Woewodin and Laurie play plenty of midfield time and Howes is being trained as a HBF, a role he shows a lot of promise in because of his marking. They’re all developing nicely, if anything we need Munro back in the middle to add another rotation, not less mids.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
