With today's result, Casey gets next week off. Unless it cancels eligibility, there is no reason for a Casey boy not to play in the seniors next Friday indeed, it may be good prep for the following week. The extra week means Sestan should be right for the VFL elimination final.

    And let’s face it, bad things always happen we play Collingwood.

    Generally deliberately too.

    Sparrow and Sharp get games

    SMH

    I don't think its completely fair to pile on Sharp, we all know his capabilities and limitations. That being said, giving him a go over Laurie or Mentha Jnr is puzzling.

    You'd love to see us make this one a bit more fun by picking Kentfield and Adams, but I can't really see that happening.

    I think this game will be a send off for some of the older and more disgruntled players.

    Who will improve by 10% in the off season to be at the same level they were at this season?

    I do think Melksham will go around again, though not sure about TMac (unfortunately).

    I do think we will lose one of May or Lever, and one of Trac or Clarry.

    I'd hate to see it but it'd be an amazing spectacle if Trac leaves the game by walking into the Collingwood rooms.

    Was T Mac injured or tactically subbed out?

    I think tactical. Hopefully not his last game. Deserves much better than to be subbed out to end his career.

    Interesting given May, Turner and Howes were all at sea and T Mac has been our most dependable defender this year.

    We looked woefully slow behind the ball, which I think is why Tmac was taken off.

    He would have a better match up this week in Membrey, and I imagine May will play on McStay.

    Sparrow had 23 disposals at 80% efficiency, plus 4 tackles and jumped at the ball to bring it to ground vs bigger opponents a few times.
    Hasn't had a great year but he was good v Hawks.

    If we're selecting on form...

    Outs

    Sharp, May

    In

    Tholstrup, Kentfield

    Petty can be moved back in case of emergency.

    The margin will be interesting in this game.

    Hopefully we can keep things respectable and deny the Pies a top 4 gig.

    Very rough calculations but if the Pies beat us by 60, then the Suns would have to beat Port and Essendon by an approx combined 120 points.

    If they beat us by 40, then the Suns would have to beat Port and Essendon by an approx combined 100 points.

    Fair to say if we can keep it within 20, the Pies supporters won't be overly happy.

    • 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.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
