The VFL is still a thing and, following their disappointing one point home defeat at the hands of Williamstown before the bye, the Casey Demons travel to Ikon Park to take on the Blues knowing that they have to win one of their two remaining matches to finish in the top six and avoid a wild card match in the group of 7th to 10th.

Over the last 3 weeks we have lost Howes, Sestan & Petty all to end-of-the-season injuries. This will seriously test our depth and impact Casey a lot.

True, but these losses could very well be offset by the potential return from injuries of Clayton Oliver, Tom McDonald and Kye Turner to return us to the status quo. Also Carlton has a big injury list of its own.

I'll be there.

A great place to watch footy these days. And somewhere near my place - unlike Casey

I cant see Clarry playing at Casey.

Straight back into the ones is my guess.

But clearly would push someone back to Casey. Commentary seemed to be saying harmes was injured (wasn’t able to watch closely unfortunately) but if he plays for Casey he’s a 30 touch mid. As is jordon. Even taj racks em up.
Definitely stretched down back without turner and Tomlinson intercepting and Howes out now is just added pain. Wondering if Tmac (if deemed fit) or Schache is sent down back given the height up forward being excessive

Won't send TMAC down back, he plays up front for a couple of weeks and sees if he can get into the 1s, he hasn't been injury free since 2021.

 

16 MFC listed players is good, although at least 2 will come out for the senior side for Sub and emergency.

It’s a Sunday game, so maybe not.

Good to see Kye Turner in the side.  He's missed a hell of a lot of footy this year.

He will be happy as well.

All those laps he ran, mostly by himself. At times, it didn't appear easy for him. Occasionally joining the main group, then returning to full rehab at the next training run. The niggle just wouldn't go.

You're right. I thought it was tomorrow. So maximum one out for sub is likely.


No bye this week?

that’s weird

Likewise, hoping for a relaxed and happy watch after a win against the Blues. Spent a couple of years at a residential college over the road from Prinny Park, and would regularly pop in for the last quarter for free (full game for Dees, obviously). Should be nostalgic. 

Can anyone confirm earlier reports that it is televised live on ch 7 ?

Thanks

I won’t be able to watch the game but I look forward especially hearing about how Tom MCD looks after all this time.  A great opportunity for him to stake a claim, though I wouldn’t expect too much from him first up.

I'm going to go and will keep a close eye on tmac.

Definitely appears to be the case.

I am crossing all of my fingers and toes for Tom McDonald today. I'd love for him to get through the whole match without issue and even kick a few. He could be exactly what we need.

Thinking of heading in. Any tips on parking?

Try the Avenue in Parkville, risk a 2hr park in Princes Hill or worse case scenario go the zoo 

All eyes will be on Tmac.

Let's not forget Schache was named emergency. Just shows he's certainly in some contention if he plays well.

Goodwin did not sound all that confident that Grundy will be locked in moving forward. Played a pretty straight bat, but I think we all know Goodwin well enough to think that he knows deep down that Grundy forward experiment didn't work and we'll have to readjust.

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
