I went down to Casey fields with my son today for the junior members clinic. What a great day out!

The players give so much time to the kids they absolutely loved it. There where hundreds of mini red and blue fans there and everyone got autographs so proud of the club for putting these on, it means a lot to all of us.

Thanks Dees

Agreed!
Was a great day and the way they handled and engaged about one thousand excited kids was exceptional.

Well done club and players.

This sounded awesome! My son is a junior member through my MCC/MFC premium membership and I hadn't heard [censored]ut this. Was it advertised? I might need to give the club a call and enquire why we didn't receive any emails about it.

Alright this is a bit much now.  We just had a phone call from Steven May wanting to speak to my junior membership son and thank him.

"Hi is ... there? it's Steven May".

What a bloody legend! When I was his age I was the only kid wearing a Dees jumper at a country footy clinic with my hero's number on the back (who won't be named) and the #%&*# gave me nothing. 

Should have kept it for the boy though he loves Salo.

I went to the same school as a well known dees player. Year above me.

Pillock who was the very definition of a self absorbed alfa jock who when he became a dees player contradicted de la soul.

My daughter just got a call from Trent Rivers.

Was so star struck she forgot what number he was when he asked and couldn’t remember what games she’d been to this year. 
Lovely bloke on the phone and one very happy young girl.

I would have loved to have to gone to school with Wattsy!

We would have been mates i'm sure. 

Good bloke. Would have enjoyed partying with him.

Sadly he 20 plus years younger than me!

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
