    Hopefully a good turnout of Demons supporters?

     

    Sadly, I couldn't make it due to work commitments.

     

    It would be interesting if any media show up. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't. 😒

    Boys coming off the track now. A very light Captain’s Run. 

    Major things to report:

    Fritsch moving freely and well

    TMac In. Moving well too. 

    No Joel Smith on the track. hopefully just a cold and they’re keeping him away from the group. Otherwise he has to be one of the unluckiest player to play footy.

    Any word on why??

    Would be a great sub. Disappointing if he's once again injured at the wrong time.

    Based on your observations do we think it's only going to be the one change only with McDonald for Melksham?

    If Smith is out then that complicate things. No exact replacement but weather probably opens the door for another small forward Spargo or Woey or Laurie. 

    And yes McDonald for Melksham.

    There's been a few instances where a player has not trained during the Captain's Run and played the next day. Hoping this is the case with Smith.

    Could be a sniffle, a family emergency, food poisoning.

    I believe his partner is pregnant, maybe she's in labour? 

    Am I worried? No. I am not worried. I never worry

    A few obvervations but it was a very short and light session so don't read too much into it:

    The end to end no pressure drill suits Hunter but he really is a beautiful kick of the footy

    Oliver had the fumbles

    Kozzie was taking set shots at the end and wasn't setting the world on fire with either drop punts or across the body shots

    Chandler gets some real penetration on his kicks with little effort

    Smith was a no show. I've got no idea how our forward setup would look without him so I'm guessing Collingwood will be in the same boat. Hopefully he is fine

    Genuinely curious why those young Casey players are still training and not having an early start to their pre-season to freshen up? It's not like any of them will play in finals.

    What if the flu ravages the team similar to Geelong 2021??

    Smith is in Pic 13 from Monday's training gallery. Let's hope it's a dentist appointment.

    Gees what a good report. I've never been less confident of kicking a winning score!

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
