currently unwatchable. A big bodied ruck from a suburban team dominating and too strong for Verral or Fullerton. Methinks Fullerton spends too much time compiling and he doesn't appear to like body contact. The mid field is deplorable. Today we are way too slow. Laurie, Brown are too small and slow hence the opp speedy mid has umpteen clearance 21 kicks and has run them off their feet.

Coburg switch play at every opportunity  and continually run the ball down one side of the ground unopposed. they run hard, tackle harder and will have a big win.

the only positive is Jefferson marking and tackling the rest of the forwards are getting frost bite as the ball rarely enters the forward line. Casey look right off today

Smashed at clearance 

No chase or smart defensive  positioning to slow down their d50 exit 

Big focus on territory, forward half turn over and clearance from the coaches box

I know it's difficult to retain players but a strong  Casey outfit has been the bedrock of our success in recent years. Young players greatly benefit from being in competitive and successful VFL teams. This apparently is no longer a priority . Regardless of any comeback to be touched up by a lowly Coburg with its own injury concerns is embarrassing and concerning.

Thoughts so far

Fullerton: really needs to be more physically, strange recruitment decision IMO as getting taught a lesson by a local ruckman

Tholstrup: love his physicality, but his positioning is really poor and quite underwhelming for a 1st round pick

Jefferson: love how he plays in front and applies pressure, just needs to convert

Brown: needs to find more of it and hit the gym

Laurie: needs to clean up his disposal as he has no trouble finding the pill

Adams: barely sighted 

Howes: needs to show more intensity. Loves jogging half paced

Moniz Wakefield: not a defender. Should be in the fwd line

Sestan: very disappointing for a guy almost in the 1s. His second efforts are poor

Also a bit confused why luker isn't playing ? Assume he's injured as it's not great for development just letting him sit out of games

How did the Gentile not get picked in the mid season draft?

May as well be watching Warner out there.

The club would rather take an 18 year old averaging 9 touches a game with potential, than a ready to go midfielder absolutely tearing it up

This has gone on long enough.

I would spend the first 10 minutes of half time getting the midfielders doing sprints across the centre square. Maybe some ground pick ups and handballs both sides just to see their hands are working.

The Experiment with Fullarton starting in ruck needs to stop and he should be HFF. Even if he hits it, he doesn’t know where it’s going.

literally got drafted three days ago, from wa - has he even moved across yet?

tholstrup loves a tackle; means he's second to the ball a lot

Most of the draftees I've seen get a flight the next day. So he should have been here Thursday

Just an average player made to look good by a total lack of defensive intent.

Much better intensity from Casey. Jefferson and Kolstrup working hard and in everything up forward. Again, finishing and composure still a concern.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
