The Giants are still in the running for a wild card finals berth while the Demons have nothing to play for just two years after winning a premiership.

They meet on Saturday at the ungodly hour of 11:35am.

Why so early?

    I don’t mind the 2’s kicking the dew off the grass before the main event.  Bad news is that if Dees hold over multiple emergencies Casey will be short handed again….

    Both are out for the season with long term injuries which is disappointing for the club as it was hoping that these two would represent the man body of experienced VFL players along with Mitch White. They were basically the replacements for the likes of Jimmy Munro and Matt Buntine and these players are important at AFL aligned clubs for the steadiness and consistency they bring.

    Thanks @KC from Casey agree Hustwaite and Connolly were excellent recruits and showed great form in the first 3 games.  Their absence cannot be underestimated given our lack of depth and player turnover.  
     

    It appears Ben Brown is unofficially retired.  He had struggled to play two games back to back all year.  In his 5 games (6 goals) , we could see how immobile he’d become and his knees simply are rendering him unable to bend.  Such a shame to see him finish like this.  Given we have Jefferson & Kentfield to develop, it’s probably best that he announce his retirement.

    I like how we have recently shifted Schache to CHB to assist the development of Jeffo and Kentfield forward. I actually thought he looked decent down there last week in tough conditions.

    Looking forward to a festival of football. Noah Yze and Roy George named on the bench. Pickett reporting on the other side of the fence. But whether the weather will wind, wuther and wrain?

    Answer my own question; It’s overcast , very dull and mercifully dry. Wind appears to be a factor leaves boughs and branches moving in the background. Roy George mark but no chocolates.

    Jefferson surprisingly good at ground level. Impressive.  Pity the delivery to him is below par. Be nice to see him show off his marking prowess.

    10 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

    casey is simply not shutting down the space and the uw$ are running into a lot of space

    sparrow's lack of defensive running shows a real lack of effort

    since i wrote this he's had an extra 6 disposals and 4 clearances, plus a monster tackle that helped set up verrall's goal just now

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
