We will all have to wait a week for Casey's next official game due to the fact that the team has another bye this weekend.

In the meantime, a scratch match has been arranged against Sandringham for those interested. If anyone's going, Please keep us apprised.

Otherwise, the next game is at the Mission Whitten Oval on 10 May 2025.

    Assume scratch match is a short 4 x15 minute quarters. No limit on interchange. Has to be played between two like minded clubs being ripped by the AFL at every opportunity.

    The disrespect that the AFL pays to the VFL is as incredible as it is sad.

    Agree with your general criticism of the VFL but my guess is that AFL clubs have requested a bye when they travel to WA.

    We have four travelling emergencies together with staff that would have supplemented the VFL side.

    Our injury list is not too bad and we could probably have fielded a reasonable team but as the travelling emergencies are your key fringe players have we really lost much?

    Of course if it was a bona fide competition my thoughts would be very different.

    The scratch match at Casey tomorrow is a closed event, ie. it’s to be played behind locked gates.

    No AFL clubs request byes at all to the VFL.

    This is all VFL driven.

    In this day and age (liability etc) it costs money to open the gates, security, clean the toilets etc.

    A pity it's not at Gosch's or another permanently open venue.

    Got down there at 11.00 today and there were a handful of spectators in the ground and the gates were ajar. Missed all but the last minutes of the scratch match. The players then had running and some ball work drills. The players there that I picked up were Billings, Adams, Verrall, Campbell, Fullarton, Mentha, Brown, Johnson, Woey, Kentfield, Culley and a few others, Apparently ( according to a trainer) Jeffo copped a knock in the scratch match and was nowhere in sight

    It appears that Jack Viney might not be the only mystery injury of the week given that Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin are named as an out and playing in the AFL when they weren’t named as emergencies.

    Agree - I thought we left the mysteries behind. Woey and Billings were fit and healthy last time we knew !!

    Is Jack a mystery injury? I’m sure it was mentioned on one of the Foxtel Footy shows the other night (last night maybe?) that he was omitted with a concussion.

    The same article also mentions that AMW, Sestan and Verrall are being monitored by other clubs as they are all out of contract.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
