    God help me if we have more faith in Schache v Tommo

    Schache is uncompetitive at Casey, please never again 

    He kicked four goals this last week!  You may need to eat your hat if he gets a chance.

    Poor Casey might need to pick some Demonlanders to play for them this week.

    Casey have the week off due to the representative state game on Saturday between the SANFL and the VFL which is part of the Gather Round.

    Can I just say that I'm loving the commitment and spirit that Jake Melksham has shown since his ACL. He could've proudly retired last year, but has the hunger for one last shot. His professionalism in rehab is showing the rest of the list that we must not take winning for granted, this is our time. He's going to be an asset in the back half of the season

    I can see him being a future super coach.

    knows what’s needed to get a game given serious adversity and the commitment to get to a level good enough to deserve that game. 
     

    He should inspire the playing group to go further. Best these crow eaters !

    BBB may be rested for Schache, as no point in destroying what's left of his knee, with a 5 day break.

    Crows are not strong in key backs, so Schache could go ok.

    Given the training reports of Chin looking upset, it could be Kolt in for his first.

    I think Woey will get a full game, as he was sub and is fresh from Saturday.

    The thing BBB does that Schacke doesn’t is present to the half back line to get a mark that helps us exit defence 

    I think Schacke has been tried and tried with us and other clubs and is just too lacking in impact 

    it’s what you bring when the ball isn’t delivered lace out - Jvr bbb make it a contest

    One thing that BBB does which always goes unnoticed is his deft taps in marking contests. Watch Fritch’s first goal from Saturday - came from BBB deliberately tapping the ball to the back of the contest for Fritsch to run onto. Does it week after week, and of course doesn’t show up on the stat sheet, but is invaluable to the way we play.

    If BBB can remain fit over the season and show what he shown the first few weeks- he is a huge asset to our flag push. Gives us great flexibility and frees up Petty to play either forward or back

    Someone in the Facebook comments on the training report mentioned that Marty Hore was not training either getting an injury assessed.

    BBB is a smart footballer with pure footballer's brain no one can deny that, we have to be smart in our management of him, he is an important cog in our system.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
