Casey’s opponent this week is North Melbourne VFL which, like the Demons, had no trouble in dispensing with Collingwood at their last outing.

Casey needs to keep winning if it is to fall into a top 10 placing and play finals. They have to reproduce the form they displayed against Collingwood.

Brown, Schache, Jefferson, Fullarton and Kentfield all most likely playing. Someone surely goes to the backline.

Looking forward to see Kentfield again..

 

Fullarton perhaps going to be held over as an emergency.

Would like to see Schache go back where he's played before at the bulldogs. Leaves us with Brown, Jefferson and Kentfield forward with Brown used sparingly as a ruck chop out.

Edit: ignore above, brain isn't braining today

If we hold him over how is he meant to work his way into the side?

very frustrating the vfl fixturing

Should be able to make it to Casey by Sunday...

Beat me to it @rjay, Casey game is the day after AFL game, so holdover will be available to play (barring disaster and the need for them to play full game in the ones!).

I presume you mean that the loss of one of the named 23 would be the disaster, not Fullarton getting a game in the ones? He's not that bad, is he? 

😉

We should have a reasonable contingent of listed MFC players available:

Billings, Laurie, Schache, Jefferson, McAdam, Adams, Verrall, Fullarton, Sestan, Woewodin, AMW, B.Brown and maybe the MFC sub depending on how musch AFL game time they get.


We patiently await team selection: 

‘Clark’ Kentfield must out looking for a telephone box.

Ben Brown injured? Hadn't heard this through the MFC website.

Played significant ruck minutes last match.  Looks like that experiment went well.

Could be just a malicious rumour, but I did hear somewhere that his knees are not quite 100% 🤫

For the regular Casey watchers, how is Jed Adams tracking?

Good size, plays every week, but we don't hear much. Just wondering if there's signs we have someone who could potentially do a decent job in May's role in a few years.

i hear we will wait until he plays 10 very good games down back and then move him fwd for 5 years to see if that works

TMac, Hogan, Naughton, May have all played back and forward in there time. 
 

You are probably right Dub.

Has the odd decent game but generally had shown little to suggest he will make the grade. About on par with the solid Casey listed players.

 

The reserves and VFL are a joke, why does a club need 4 byes per season only one is needed since there are 21 teams. The match against Collingwood reserves wasn't selected until the day we played them because our senior side was playing on the following monday. Does the club want a reserves side ?

Harsh but fair.

Casey are now playing the fast corridor game and more often than not one handball too many. The most powerful weapon these days is the 30 metre kick at a 45 degree angle to a free running player. Unfortunately because we push up so high there is rarely a player to take advantage of the counterattack

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
