CASEY: Rd 03 vs Port Melbourne

The Casey Demons played with a lot more energy in their second outing for the year than in the first so it’s fitting therefore that they travel next to Kinetic Stadium, Frankston to play an away game against fellow cellar dwellers Port Melbourne.

These teams have almost identical them songs and therefore, it isn’t hard to figure out the tune you will hear blaring out of Kinetic’s loudspeakers at the end of the contest.

Methinks, conditions are ripe for a drawn match.

    Yes … that’s correct. According to the VFL site, it’s Port Melbourne at Kinetic Stadium which is almost in the heart of Frankston. Presumably, the Port ground is being repaired or in use for some rap concert.

    Does this rule out the possibility of getting a Burraburger at the game?

    You could get a Frangaburger but I hear they're a bit rubbery.

    Selection will be interesting this week and obviously revolves firstly, around whether Kozzy is rubbed out by the tribunal tonight. 

    This is the list of players from Casey’s last game -

    Jed Adams, Kynan Brown, Leo Connolly, Paddy Cross, Tyler Edwards, Kyah Farris-White, Tom Freeman, Tom Fullarton, Max Gregory, Campbell Husthwaite, Matt Jefferson, Andy Moniz-Wakefield, Ned Moodie, Charlie Peters, Josh Schache, Ollie Sestan, Tom Sheridan, Roan Steele, Mitch Szybkowski, Koltyn Tholstrup, Ziggy Toledo, Will Verrall, Mitch White

    Bailey Laurie and Adam Tomlinson were sent to Adelaide to act as holdovers for the Port Adelaide game. Also since then, Lachie Hunter and Daniel Turner have been declared fit. Casey should therefore have a better side than last time they played which is encouraging.

    A pity as it's probably my favourite VFA ground complete with giant dim sims and the famous Burra Burger'

    The sausage sizzle at Frankston was nice on my last visit

    Well at least, finally, this absolute joke of an AFL "support development competition" will get some games played.

    Unfortunately I think our depth has already been eroded due to off season departures, medical retirement and current injury list.  Not sure there’s currently anyone in the cupboard to bring in for the Tigers game aside from Pickett.

    Laurie is probably the one who has a chance. I'm not seeing AMW making it but he could surprise.

    Hunter is another but he needs a few games is my guess.

    A pity the VFL team has a bye next week given they've just had one

    Jefferson could break Fred Fannings record and still wouldn't be picked the next week.

    Honestly so could Schache.

    Based on the above and the club's published injury list these are the AFL listed players we can expect to see tomorrow.

    Jed Adams, Kynan Brown, Kyah Farris-White, Tom Fullarton, Lachie Hunter, Matt Jefferson, Bailey Laurie, Andy Moniz-Wakefield, Josh Schache, Ollie Sestan, Adam Tomlinson, Daniel Turner and Will Verrall.

    However, based on some of the training reports, one or two of the above might not play.

    Magician??   If you are referring to Jefferson surely he needs a lot more VFL time.

    I will be most interested in AMW - is he a possible HBF?  Though that would leave a very inexperienced small medium defence unit.

    May wander down Picket. He's the one who may surprise a few. Van Rooyen has been incredibly disappointing for mine. I tend to be glass half full, but JVR now has the worst hands since old Richmond ruckman Mark Lee (if anyone remembers him)

    "Coach, I don't need to play midfield minutes today, put me at half back" - Hunter, Seaston, Laurie and Brown say in unison while AMW pencils his name in there.....

    Yep, we are not batting experienced this year at Casey, but there is a lot of young talent. We still have enough good players to be winning games in the 1s and the 2s are just going to struggle sadly.

    I'll have a carnation between my teeth, a velvet jacket not dissimilar to that worn by Graham Teasdale and a cheese board. Mt Eliza local so will prop in front of the old stand if I rock up.

    The cupboards empty, merely recycling battlers at this stage.

    Seven of those at Casey have played AFL, and we have another five in the AFL that could easily join them.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
