VFL Cats tweeting that the gates open at midday and game starts at 1.00pm. Other sources mentioning 2.40pm start. I hope the Casey players' bus turns up on time. I won't be at the game due to work commitments but hope to keep people up to date with scores.

And out to a 53 point margin with Tom Bugg's fifth goal on the board. Bayley Fritsch has four while Corey Maynard has also had another good game this week. VFLlisted players Scott, Morris and Gent have all had big nights.

Declan Keilty coming good at the end with a couple of goals. He's done well today.

The Roosters cut the lead to exactly five goals at the final break but in the circumstances, a five goal lead at three quarter time is not very convincing.

I'm finally on line ... Demons made tough work of it in the wet in the first quarter. It's a much more switched on North Ballarat this week than the one that was flogged by Richmond. Six goals to two was fair reward for effort but the Roosters are by no means the easybeats everybody expected. Tom Bugg starring. Bailey Fritsch is kicking goals and Corey Maynard is proving a bit of a surprise packet.

Congratulations to one of the Casey Demon young guns Mykelti Lefau who has been chosen to represent his home country of New Zealand against the AFL Academy Australian Under 17s at Westpac Stadium in Wellington on Monday April 24. Playing for St Kilda City Under 19s in the Southern Football League late last year Lefau had a match to remember, drilling 25 of his team’s 28 goals in a big victory over Carrum Patterson Lakes. He has already impressed with Casey and we wish him well in his first game for the Kiwis.

The game's still going - Brayshaw gets one.

Angus Scott with 4 goals will be close to our best today.

First goal of the last to Williamstown snuffs out any chance of a revival.

The Willi lead is now 31 points and ref stand alone Seagulls are making some of the AFL listed Demons look like chumps.

An absolute comedy of errors involving about four consecutive inexcusable turnovers from Casey leads to a Williamstown goal.

Goy Lok misses his second easy shot for goal.

Demons in trouble - no marking options up forward. No ruck and poor kicking out of defence.

Willi's lead out to 13 points.

Sort of makes me redundant, doesn't it ?
