    Did anyone watch the Casey game ? Seriously only Sestan and Moniz-Wakefield would be capable.  Both deserve a game. 
     

    outs.  Brown again, Petty, Billings, Lever (concussion) Chandler (knee) 

    in.  JVR.  Langdon.  Sestan. AMW.  Tomlinson.

    Agreed. Already playing a lot of kids; let’s not throw them all in.

    Half the Casey regulars didn’t play cos they were carry over emergencies for the AFL game

    Those that did play at Casey are, presumably, further back in the pack 

    OUT: Lever, Billings, Sparrow, B Brown
    IN: JVR, Langdon, Fullarton, Tholstrup

    Petty to return to defence where he’s clearly more comfortable

    I somehow doubt that the above will happen tho

    I think we need to hedge our bets a little. It’s possible 2021 is all we’re gonna get, or it’s possible we might still be in the flag race. It’s hard to say at 6-4 in May.

    So I would be in favor of cutting clear deadwood like Billings who won’t get a kick in September anyway, for someone like Laurie or Sestan. 
    Woey Jr was one I thought might not be up to it but he’s starting to flourish with opportunity. 
    Ben Brown is another who needs to go, but the cupboard is a little bare. Absolutely not to Jeffo coming in lol, I have faith in him but it’s too soon.

    Tomlinson one and done for Lever. 

    Otherwise I think Goody has to roll with the same guys and hope we can peak later in the year or pinch one in an open year.

    Out: Lever, BBB, Billings. (Howes sub)

    In: JVR, Fullarton, Langdon

    FB: McVee May McDonald
    HB: Rivers Petty Woey
    C: Langdon Oliver Windsor 
    HF: Chandler  Fullarton Viney 
    FF: McAdam JVR Pickett 
    Foll: Gawn ANB  Salem
    Int: Bowey , Sparrow, Fritsch, Petracca
    S: Howes

    Probably have to give Petty the chance down back, he at least had a go in the ruck.

    Which means Fullarton I guess??

    Seen enough of BBB, he’s on a hiding to nothing but gave nothing. Seen more than enough of Billings.

    Time to reward Woey’s consistent effort with a full game, could be half back for Howes, could be wing with Langdon forward more.

    Wouldn't be surprised if we also see Tholstrup back in the side either. Maybe even a Sestan debut.

    Laurie? 🤣 he's genuinely a worse version of Billings.

    Probably only two things for sure.

    Lever misses due to concussion.

    At least one of Brown and Petty is dropped/moved out of the forward line (they combined for 1.2 from 8 disposals and 3 marks. That's not good enough for one of them on their own, let alone both of them).

    Presumably JVR replaces the dropped/moved key forward. Tomlinson or Petty for Lever you'd think.

    We don’t know that for sure. He’s barely had an extended opportunity. At worst he’s rubbish, like Billings is anyway, and at best he might find himself like Taj has done.

    Somehow or other Fullerton needs to be also blooded... dunno how but when I can't even give a 6.5.4.3 vote for that pathetic effort I am in a quandry.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
