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.

    Does the man mountain still ruck for the Sharks?

    Expecting a slog in the wet but at least not much wind

    Goober? Hopefully, he is one of my faves.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
