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.

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

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?

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

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

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

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?

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.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
