This Sunday's Casey Demons practice match marks their final dress rehearsal for 2026, featuring a captivating encounter with the re-established St Kilda VFL side.

From 2001 to 2005, the Saints had a partnership with the Springvale Scorpions, later renamed Casey Scorpions following their relocation to Casey Fields in 2006. This partnership remained intact until 2009, when the Saints and Demons swapped affiliations, resulting in Melbourne aligning with the Scorpions and St Kilda joining forces with the Sandringham Zebras until they parted ways late last year. Meanwhile, the Casey team adopted the name Casey Demons in 2017.

Sunday’s practice match will therefore be the first encounter between the two clubs in their current identities.

While the history may be complex, rest assured that the Demons will be able to field their Melbourne-listed players when the teams face off at RSEA Park, Moorabbin on Sunday morning.

Expecting about 10 or 11 MFC listed players to take part so worth coming along to back the boys.

For the south sides, perhaps the Casey- Dees double in Sunday?

Good timing.

For the sake of the exercise I'll assume Kolt and Sharp get the last two bench spots and Melk and Laurie miss out, of those who miss one will possibly be held out or play a half and then be the carry over emergency.

FB: AMW Adams Berry
HB: X. Taylor T McD
C: Onley
HF: Mentha Henderson
FF: Cross Melksham Matthews
Foll: Heath Laurie

Injured: Campbell, Jefferson, Kentfield, AJ, White, McAdam, Bowey, Viney

Backline has some quality especially when you add the Casey half backs. Even without any genuine talls the forward line can do some damage if it comes in quick. Midfield is super thin though. We'll be reliant on Casey uncovering a couple of hidden gems to have any kind of success this year.
