S&Gs this morning, which is ok imo since they’ve trained so hard at Casey this week.

Serious question: when congratulating debutants, should they ALL be congratulated, including emergency and sub players?

    Congratulate the subs but not the emergencies.

    Thank you! I’m glad I asked since I would’ve congratulated all of them.

    Congratulate everyone but remind them that we have to win. I've been bagging Collingwood and Carlton fans hard and I can ill afford the return fire should we lose.

    Afl.com.au is good guide. Each game will have milestones, which I believe last season or season before they've started putting in debut games as a milestone. It will say this even if the team is the squad team before the final team is announced, then it removes it as a milestone if they are a emergency player.

    Been out of it this week with no idea what is happening. Was just driving down Punt Rd past the ground and turned my head to be pleasantly surprised to see the boys out there. I immediately pulled over into the river and am walking up now.

    Very relaxed session again.

    All Casey players were out, (joined by the AFL Casey after there meeting), then AFL strolled onto the paddock. 

    The players ran the GW gauntlet with humour and fun.

    Very few with numbers on, mainly the training singlets.  

    No sight of Jamar. Whelan was helping, first time I'd seen him for a while. Jones spent time with Henderson. 

    BT talking to Richardson in the centre.

    A couple doing some runs, a group with a soccer ball, others gathering the low ball with a trainer, the rest goal kicking (many joined in later).

    Last out there, Tracc, Oliver, Henderson and Bowey.

    I can't help but feel a certain poster starting to get very frustrated with this thread.

    It was the mother of S&Gs sessions therefore we can be forgiven for indulging in a S&Gs thread, surely. It didn’t even go for the advertised 30 mins. As he was walking back to the rooms, Salo said, “Thanks for coming for the solid 10-minute session!”

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
