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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
