I've had a lot to do with him - yes

I know so little about him… what are his best attributes and do you think he can step straight in ?

    culley was signed by casey for season 2025

    the only way he'll be leaving would, i assume, be if he gets a call up to an afl list

    AFL article notes West Coast (now) and Carlton still to fill spots...

    You’d expect that to be the case but if he decides he just wants to be playing local footy I doubt Casey can force him to play up a level. Similarly if he suddenly decides SANFL or WAFL are in his best interests would Casey block him? I’m not convinced state league contracts are rock solid. And it’s a hard rejection to bounce back from when at least if Jon Ralph is to be believed (and he shouldn’t really be) he was very close to the list spot.

    Fair to say Casey will be strong this year.

    Small forward/mid with good goal sense, smarts and tackling.

    Lacks stand out attributes to be a big difference maker but can come in and do a role from day 1 if he’s had a good summer VFL training at a high enough level.

    With Pickett’s suspension, Spargo still injured and Kolt injured there’s going to be opportunity.

    Yep - that's what I thought. But when you think about it, probably easier to break into Eagles line-up/security going forward?

    He is a country boy so a move won't affect him, but certainly his life is here atm...
    Got my fingers and toes crossed!

    Great insight mate and thanks for sharing the information.

    has been training with West Coast so youd think his conditioning would be ok in terms of AFL level

    Welcome Jack. Per the SSP contenders thread he was my preference based on list need and ability to impact short and medium term. Is too good not to be given an AFL chance. Reminds me a lot of Kane Lambert in how he plays.

    I’ve got a little family connection to Jack as well so rapt to have him at the Dees.

    Fitness won’t be an issue, he’s an elite runner and has kept himself ticking over in the off-season.

    Club have earmarked that ANB high half forward spot as his role.

    I just watched the highlights reel and he reminded me straight away of Nibbler and his run down tackles and opportunistic goals. An important role to fill. All the best to Jack!

    Was Roy an option here?

    Can't recall seeing much of Hendo and what he brings.

    Roy is magic and just needs to get to AFL levels of fitness or close to it surely?  Is he still an option somehow?

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
