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.

Interesting choice of a display pic 🤣

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!

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
