I'm a good bet to be there to report! But I'll let Landers know!

Sliterers won't be very active, but be careful as they won't be able to get out of your way if you do happen across one 🐍

I cannot believe it but the Weid was suspended for 3(?) games for a high hit on someone. 
Who said he had no appetite for a contest?

Must've been an accident. Did he apologise straight away?

At least any named emergencies that don't get a late call up will be able to play for a change.

Imagine wanting to desperately play AFL but also you just love playing and being with your mates at VFL.  Then being named as an emergency for weeks on end and not being able to play at either level.

And to top it off Selwyn makes you run 12kms up and down the ground after the game to keep your fitness up.

Is Weid playing VFL these days

Weid is a four letter word the mods should add to the banned list.

2015 draft Weid pick 9, McKay pick 10, Curnow pick 12

BTW Schach attack pick 2.

I think Weid has copped enough. Let it go.

He didn’t turn out the way we wanted but he did give us a couple of good finals appearances in 2018 and was part of something Melbourne supporters hadn’t seen in 12 years.

Does anyone know what happened to Roy George who played one terrific game and disappeared out of sight?

He’s been killing it for Tyntynder seniors. I’m sure we’re keeping track, probably hasn’t played at Casey cause we’re hiding him from Dodoro

Multiple goals in many matches, lots of possessions out of the middle. Would he want to give up being a big fish in a small pond?

By George, Bulldogs are too good

this kid could be anything, I think application sadly is the only thing that has/is holding him back.

Fun fact about the Casey Demons and the fractured VFL fixture:

Last week, Casey played Brisbane up north and there was something about the game that bothered me and I couldn't work out exactly what it was. Then I realised that Casey had already played against Brisbane earlier in the season (it was Round 8). What's strange about this is that there are more teams than rounds so why would you play one team twice? Then I discovered that Casey also plays Footscray a second time in Round 19 and that they don't play Geelong, Southport, Sydney Swans and Werribee at all this season.

This isn't a competition - it's Mickey Mouse club stuff!

Has not been a decent comp since covid.

It's a glorified training run.

For the non aligned clubs it makes a little more sense but I've lost interest.

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

    The Demons return to the MCG in Round 20 to take on the GWS Giants and will be hoping the injured Captain Max Gawn is fit to return to his role in the ruck as their season is slipping away. Who comes in and who comes out?

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided

    GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Fremantle

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a golden opportunity to stamp their 2024 finals credentials as well as make amends for their disastrous first meeting against the Dockers earlier in the season when they take on Fremantle at Optus Stadium.

    THE PEOPLE SPEAK by The Demonland Crew

    DEMONLAND - Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland 2024 Grand Final Podcast ... before we took that last phone call from a Demonlander, we were discussing how the club overcame it’s midseason slump, the season-ending injury to Christian Petracca and the loss for a brief period of skipper Max Gawn due to a  crack to the base of his right fibula, to slowly surge up the ladder turning our detractors into believers and how it ended the year triumphant in the finals with our capta

    EARLY BIRDS by KC from Casey

    Wet, slippery conditions and threatening rainfalls greeted the VFL Bombers at the end of their long journey southeast of the big city on Sunday. The threatening weather combined with the fact that neither side had realistic prospects of advancing to action in September, meant that spectators gathered at a cold Casey Fields weren’t expecting a classic exhibition of football. Nor did they get one. Instead they were presented with a dour struggle that never reached great heights. It was a

    HEAVENS ABOVE by Molly Melbourne

    Who said the football gods and scoreboard attendants at the MCG don’t have a sense of humour? The gods spent a whole week teasing Demon and Bomber fans alike about Saturday night’s game. About how the entire match would be dominated by the hulking, brooding figures of 205cm Sam Draper and his 2IC Peter Wright lapping it up in the absence of Melbourne skipper and the club's No.1, No 2, No 3 and No 4 ruckman Max Gawn in the wake of that ankle injury. They painted pictures of Simon Goodwin ne
