Brings back memories of the tensions when Juice Newton played with Saunders (?).

Sandy didn't do us many favours but IIRC we won a premiership with them in about 1996

    Making a special effort to get along to this game. Hope to get a good crowd of Demons to celebrate James "Moose" Munro's 150 game for Casey. Mrs Dw has ordered a set of antlers and hopes they arrive in time. Seriously, Jimmy is one of the nicest blokes and deserves every accolade we can give him.

    Nick Sautner was the incumbent full forward at Sandringham in those days. 

    Good player but a development road block from a Melbourne perspective. 

    That said,  I don't think Juice did himself that many favours either.

    Do Melbourne members have to pay for away VFL games, or are these covered in the AFL membership also?

    I used to love getting down to TBO to watch Sandy play when we were aligned with them. That 3-peat of premierships from 2004-06 were fantastic to watch.

    Have a lot of great memories of the Sandy alignment and went to a lot of games during that time. It's a great footy club and John Mennie was a great general manager. It a lot of ways they would still be my VFL club, nothing against Casey but I don't have the same connection with them other than seeing how our listed players are going there.

    Pre pandemic away members got in for half price $5... not sure how it works these days

    I can recall Goody borrowing a membership card so he could get in for $5 at Coburg one day.

    Looking forward to a catering and ground report from Sandringham. Hopefully a big win on Saturday night will see a lot of happy AFL players among the spectators

    Who is listed with J. Smith playing yesterday part of the last quarter (or does he get a run with both teams)?

    Yes think Smith will play again.

    very interested to see where they play joel smith - you'd think with all of jvr, jefferson, schache down forward we'd be top heavy with him there, and with turner out we might be a titch light on for talls down back

    his versatility is so important as to why he remains on the fringes of afl level

    hoping to see laurie move thru the midfield a bit more today

    Nice to see Maxy, Lever, Sparrow, Salo, Petty, Spargs, JJ, Macca, Viney, Gus, Smithy, Nibbler & Tracc down here in support... go the Moose!

    Chandler works a fwd stoppage with handball clearance and assist, via two hands for first goal to Edwards.

    Sandy reply for their first.

    Adams appears to have put some size on.

    • 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.
