The Casey Demons have a bye and then take on the Giants at home next week and should have a strong side with some good players coming back in from injury.

    Hoping Jai Culley plays a full game and gets over 20 possessions and kicks a goal or two.

    If he wants to take his chances to play AFL again he needs to make the selectors take notice.

    Assuming we don't make many changes to the senior team next week, Casey is going to look incredibly strong.

    Forward line of Fullarton, Turner and Jefferson. Tholstrup back for a mid/fwd role and perhaps McVee to get minutes as well if not immediately put into the seniors.

    Tholstrup and McVee will make their way into the seniors fairly quickly I would think.

    Need to give McVee and Throlstrup a run for Casey next weekend. Both should be ready to play. Not sure about Kentfield. I think he also will be available.

    Hopefully Casey also gets to add Spargo to the team next week.

    Jefferson and Turner in out side reminds me of how we messed up Fidges career. He starred on the full back of the century in a reserves final but never made his mark. With big forwards unless you are a freak you need to give them a lot of support and backing to build their confidence.

    Good luck to Riley Bonner, our only rep in the VFL State Side to play SA as part of the Gather Round.

    Casey lost two of its prime recruits at this equivalent time last year so, fingers crossed 😀

    The VFL had a week due to the state game. The week before we played Geelong and lost the best players were Laurie, Fullerton and Johnson.

    I did post to drop van Rooyen but after Goodwin's presser he is still backing his players so van Rooyen will stay in the seniors but I think Sharp and Henderson will be dropped for McVee and Fullerton.

    Possible line up

    B: Smith, Adams, Bonner

    HB: Howes, Turner, Sestan

    C: Billings, Laurie, Woewodin

    HF: Sharp, Johnson, Henderson

    F: Mentha, Jefferson, Kentfield

    FOLL: Verrall, Tholstrup, Culley

    IC: Hardie, Baldi, Brown, Cross, Yze

    Why can't they just roll-in some filler players and keep going during the state game week? It's mad that the AFL teams propping the competition up lose a week of player development for semi-professional State Of Origin.

    Will be a very strong Casey forward line.

    Also looking forward to seeing Leek Aleer, Wade Derkson, James Leake and Phoenix Gothard from the Giants.

    F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Jefferson

    Except the emergencies Fritsch, Howes, Henderson will need to be at the G?

    That would be the strongest team that we have fielded at Casey for some time.

    Got to the right places and some good intercepts / defensive work against the Cats but alot of work ahead for Howes with ball in hand for mine.

    Far from convincing.

    As previously iterated I'll be going to watch the CASEY Game and for once won't have to endure the outside the fence presence with slitheras. I'll update when I can. Then home to watch the main game!

    Henderson and Howes not selected for Casey. Late changes?

    Unavailable. Campbell, Hore, Lever - injured.

    MFC emergencies. Howes. Henderson. (May and Pickett having fitness tests)

    Casey crew. (8) Bonner, Hardie, Smith, Baldi, Windsor, Cross, George & Kirkwood-Scott. Edwards out injured is a blow.

    Good to see Dees persist with Kirkwood-Scott. He has elite footskills and one youngster who might be handy to consider at years end.

    Roy George. Let’s see what he can do excite the Casey faithful.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
