    aaaaaargh!   Never mind. lol.

    Seriously , isnt Pink Lady the brand name or used to be of a certain street product in St kilda?  . just saying.

    This would be one of those things that happened when you were living overseas - we helped facilitate breast cancer awareness and some men were so secure in their sexuality that they could wear pink/salmon clothing. Still there are some that projected their own homophobic self hatred but that’s a history lesson for a different mirror.

    Wouldn't we have to travel if we come up against Brisbane or Port in the prelim? E.g. they finished higher on the ladder and so play a home game, or does us winning our Qualifying place us ahead of them from a home v away prelim perspective?

    If you win the QF you get a home Prelim.

    If you lose the QF or win an EF, the Prelim is an away game.

    If we win our first QF regardless of location and regardless of opponent, our Prelim is at the MCG. Even if the opponent finished higher.

    For those that have seen Laurie, could he potentially be the replacement for the Hunter wing next year and beyond?

    Don't think so. Has never shown that at Casey IMO. The more likely for that role is Woewodin

    I wonder if they will try to recruit Liam Henry for that position?

    I think more likely Blake Howes hopefully.

    Worrying the kind of first quarter Blues have just had against Suns. Hope we come out firing but as Binners said it was such a taxing game we could struggle early doors…

     

    we will win.omen. Went to the local bws this morning bloke behind the jump dead set ringer for  ED

    Not sure which JJ you're talking about. He certainly doesn't have pace.

    He’s quicker than you think!

    Who's going to be our sub?  Maybe Grundy...imagine that!

     

    (I know, probably Spargo or JJ, how uninspiring)

    This match is giving me nightmares. Imagine having to beat Sydney to stop Carlton from pinching fourth spot

    Hawthorn won’t fold the way GC did, either. 

    If we fall 40 down, all hell is going to break loose. 

    A good start tomorrow will do wonders for our hearts.

    With Carlscum winning in a close one today positions in the top 4 are heating up.

    Tomorrow is going to be massive.

    Destiny is in the hands of the Melbourne players themselves.

    We cannot underestimate Hawthorn.

    Yes, as mentioned by @titan_uranus, a good start is imperative as we need to take the umpires out of the equation.

    To quell any doubt I AM being serious. I'm sure AFL HQ would love us to lose this game for the theatre it would create in the final round. I may be wearing a tinfoil hat but it doesn't mean I'm wrong!

    So who do we think McGuinness will go to tomorrow?

    Whoever he goes to it will be a learning experience. Tracc or Clarry.

    played a fair chunk of time here at Casey

    Howes originally started as a winger at Casey before being pushed to HB

    Can see him taking this role on though no problems

    We can't afford to drop this game. losing 2 of last 3 games is just not flag winning form. 

    Hawks will be tough but we will win. We have to.

    I’m expecting a decent 5 goal victory!
    If we can’t be Hawthorn we don’t deserve a top 4 position.

    And we know Carlton are sniffing up our butts for the double chance. We have to win and win well. Not to mention it would be embarrassing to lose in Gawn’s 200th.

    Both Collingwood and Brisbane lost to Hawthorn.

    They don’t deserve it either?

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
