CASEY: Rd 08 vs Southport

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

 

But why at Casey which means that the four travelling emergencies won't see a game.

Will be interesting to see if Billings plays. Not sure what his plans are post AFL but a mid season retirement might be on the cards.

    Yet another example of the farce they call the VFL. Surely Sunday in Southport would have been the common sense fixturing. Travelling emergencies would then get a game.

    I really hope that the clubs are putting it to the AFL hierarchy, need to get the media focussed on this farcical situation regarding the second highest tier of Aussie Rules that appears to be handicapping most league sides. Probably won’t get any traction with the so called media, can’t bite the hand that feeds you.

    O Green in - Brads son?

    strong Casey side in this week.

    Different Oliver Green, played for Sandy dragons last year if I'm not mistaken.

    Brads son is only 14 or 15.

    Lachie Bryce and Paddy Cross are stiff to be omitted. Those AFL listed inclusions returning from injury or dropped from the firsts have priority obviously. Are Blake Howes and Tom Fullerton certain to play? Listed as emergencies v Lions. Aiden Johnson has got his ticket. Bailey Laurie ever the bridesmaid.

    As DeeZone says, what an absolute bloody farce.

    VFL is NOT even half a support competition.

    Dillon should put his foot down and let the VFL know they are not up to scratch and risk being completely sidelined if they can’t show some plain common sense.

    Noted today that VFL Sydney V Carlton was played at 3:05 pm, at the SCG before the main game.

    Obviously the Gabba surface cannot handle 2 games in a row.

    Or it’s just us?

    Wow - 18 AFL listed players, the most I can recall for years - just Hore and Viney not named to play this weekend......

    Dees likely to have 2 travelling emergencies as seems to be our MFC peculiarity. Still agree it’s an AFL player listed team this week.

    The AFL run the VFL. They are responsible for its demise.

    Bryce and Cross were very good last week. No stats padding like a few AFL listed others. Best last week were K.Brown, Bryce, Laurie, Campbell, Hardie, Kentfield & Cross. Definitely like to see Bryce given more games as he shows he could be a draftee chance at years end.

    AMW and McAdam also miss. I miss them and held high hopes for both this year.

    What's badly needed is a stand alone AFL reserves comp, and as you all know I've been saying this since the dawn of time!

    Appears Cream is on the red-eye to BrisVegas. An opportunity in positions vacant exists for a young tall to stand up. Bryce and Cross are named on the bench.

    • 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.
