You’d imagine Neocleous will play in the centre 

 

The AFL seem to be streaming the VFL and VFLW again this season, through the AFL Live app.

I can see they are showing two games at the moment. 

 

 

Jeffo Still in defence, after being pick 15 as a forward 🤯

good - best place for him to continue to develop his game

he kicked 20+ goals in the vfl in his first year as a forward on an afl list

now to add extra strings to his bow he can develop a defensive mindset

Training:  Captain's run at Gosch's 

The AFL rehabbed are having a strength and conditioning session. Sestan plenty of running, Melky working hard and is now leading with intensity against a defender (non-contact), and receiving from Sestan. Bowey running laps. Turner going harder and has started change of direction drills. Hunter has also increased his intensity, now doing structured kick to kick with Turner.

Casey players are out.

Low ball get drills to start them off, (Sestan, Turner and Melky have joined the squad), then some handballs with short run throughs. Now skills in a square, finishing with a kick on goal. They have gone into a big square of four corners with bigger kicks and run throughs.  

Not many numbers match the VFL team sheet, and it seems to be last seasons squad.

White has a support on his left knee and is sitting out most drills. 

AMW is not training.

Number 50 is a big unit playing as a forward.

Structured sims. First from back to front, then reversed. Tomlinson setting the rules and pushing standards. Jefferson and Adams, in the back pocket. Verrall and Farris-White rucking. Tholstrup and K.Brown forward, with Tholstrup being pushed up into the stoppages. 

Coach (Whitford) now pulls them together and demonstrates what he wants. He walks them through various scenarios at different areas on the field as they mime the actions. White attends these pantomimes, so could be playing.

They end with goal kicking. 63 has the skills, rarely misses.

The rehabbed stay out on the paddock for extra drills and sprints down the field.

What about McAdam ?

McAdam was not there, I think he has his own program. 

Edited by kev martin


Jefferson has done pretty good since going to the backline. Do not mind at all him playing back there if hes gaining confidence. Cause he wasnt getting much of the ball in the fwd line

With injuries to May and Lever there are openings for Tommo or maybe Adams ? Haven’t seen much of Jed this year and thought he was a fair way off last season but will be interesting to see if he can put his hand up 

Does anyone know if you're allowed to bring dogs to Casey home games?

Surely we rest Tomlinson for this game (or at least a half) to make sure we've got him fully fit for the AFL next week?

Don’t think so. Unless it’s changed since 2020. All I could find was this though.

Post above suggests new guidelines.

Pre pandemic dogs were very welcome. I can recall Neville Jetta and his family having a lovely little dog at Coburg.

Went to Box Hill  immediately post pandemic and certainly lots of dogs... all well behaved

Thanks gents.  Looks like a no.  I seem to recall seeing dogs there in a final late 2022 but memory from then is sketchy

Game Day!
 

Andy, WJ and assorted D’landers, must have have been partying hard into the Wee hours. Celebrating the Mayblooms de-petaling.

Box Hill Hawks may be a different proposition, faint echoes of the empire strikes back?  As the Enterprise voyages fearlessly into the unknown. This seasons new Casey  Demons are also a relatively unknown quantity with many new faces on board. Mixed with some more familiar faces. Today’s transmission from Planet Casey will soon reveal whether the blend of new and old will gel. A New Hope?

That’s better!!!

The player listed originally at full forward in the Casey team is Caleb Lewis # 70.

Thanks @kev martinshocking google Sundayitis from me !!! 

The original list had M.Lewis at full forward.  

Looks better with Caleb Lewis at full forward.  

Read that he was a young star at St Bedes in the VAFA.  

Interesting to see how he goes.  

I am getting worried about Jefferson.  We effectively got Jefferson and Windsor in the Jackson trade compensation. Jefferson is a good young player. Good mark but second efforts and current frame mean he’s easily beaten at VFL level. Perhaps a stint in the backline will help build more desire for the footy and the contest.  

I’d give him another 18 months on the list at least.  Early days still.  

 

Caleb Lewis is a 196cm prospect from VFL Footscray VFL who formerly was with the Sandringham Dragons.

Thanks DD36. Saw team list said M.Lewis so thought it was him. Stand corrected.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

  • PREVIEW: Sydney

    The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.
