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.

    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!

    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.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
