CASEY: Rd 20 vs Brisbane Lions

KC from Casey
in Melbourne Demons

Having locked in at least a Wild Card appearance at the end of the VFL home and away series, it's time for Casey to show what it's made of against two other finalists before the business end of the season.

The Lions away this week followed by top team Box Hill beyond that presents Casey with a major challenge.

It won't be easy but it will be good preparation for the players.

    I think we're about to find out if we're finals worthy or not.

    Thanks KC let’s hope they continue playing like our last couple of games, also hope they don’t have to fly in and out on the same day that would be pretty tough.

    Not necessarily wishing to get ahead of the cliche ‘one week at a time’. But how many of the AFL listed players who have played for Casey will be eligible to play finals?

    The younger brigade Adams, Brown, Kentfield, Mentha, Sestan, Verrall, Woewodin, plus older heads Billings, Campbell, Culley, Fullerton, Laurie would you’d (depending on fitness) think be most likely included.

    Henderson, Howes, Jefferson, Johnson, Spargo, Tholstrup, Howes may or may not meet the selection criteria?

    Some of the younger VFL listed guys Mitch Kirkwood Scott, Tyson Sruk and Paddy Cross are worthy inclusions but would get the nod after who’s in and out from the AFL squad members.

    Rule is no more than 12 AFL games and no less than 6 VFL games for the season.

    So everyone at the moment is eligible you mentioned but Spargo has played 10 and if plays last 3 in AFL then he is the only one who could be ineligible.

    Would rather have someone like Paddy Cross deserving of a finals game than Spargo. At least he kicks goals and would be part of the Casey team.

    Charlie won't be getting at least the next AFL game.

    Maybe a finals team like this:

    B: Smith, Adams, Sestan

    HB: Bonner, Fullerton, Howes

    C: Billings, Laurie, Culley

    HF: Tholstrup, Johnson, Henderson

    F: Spargo, Kentfield, Jefferson

    FOLL: Campbell, Woewodin, Hardie

    IC: Verrall, Brown, Mentha, Cross, 23rd player

    Is Sharp eligible?

    Pretty sure that Sharp has played more than 12 AFL games.

    Just realised that Lindsay isn’t named for Casey. That's two weeks now of no games at either level for him. Management after a long year or perhaps an injury concern? No mention of him in this week's injury report.

    Probably shut him down for the year, not a bad call if so. He had a very good year considering he barely had a pre season

    Not a bad idea. Kids important for our future and he's had a big year, particularly off a limited pre-season. Can't play Casey finals so getting him right for day 1 pre-season with no niggles should be a priority.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
