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.

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
