Massive blow to Campbell Hustwaite and the Casey Demons. That stress fracture threatens to keep him out for several months. A former captain of the Collingwood VFL side, Hustwaite just missed out on getting drafted in thr SSP after training pre season with the Magpie seniors. This new setback will make it hard for him to be drafted in the midseason draft. He was one of Casey’s better players in its opening matches.

The team for tomorrow is in:- CASEY DEMONS B Freeman Tomlinson Adams HB Moniz-Wakefield Turner Connolly C Moodie Laurie Edwards HF Steele Schache Sestan F Jefferson Fullerton Hunter FOLL Verrall White K Brown I/C Cross Faris-White Laplanche Szybkowski K Windsor EMG Gregory Neocleous Peters Sheridan State representative Campbell Hustwaite who played well for the VFL team last weekend is out with a stress fracture of the foot.

Yes … that’s correct. According to the VFL site, it’s Port Melbourne at Kinetic Stadium which is almost in the heart of Frankston. Presumably, the Port ground is being repaired or in use for some rap concert.

The Casey Demons played with a lot more energy in their second outing for the year than in the first so it’s fitting therefore that they travel next to Kinetic Stadium, Frankston to play an away game against fellow cellar dwellers Port Melbourne. These teams have almost identical them songs and therefore, it isn’t hard to figure out the tune you will hear blaring out of Kinetic’s loudspeakers at the end of the contest. Methinks, conditions are ripe for a drawn match.

Lucky there’s no Casey game this week

The VFL is going into recess for one week to allow the representative game against the SANFL as part of Gather Round. The game will be played at Glenelg. Three Casey players were picked to play in the initial 50 man squad, Campbell Hustwaite, Roan Steele and Mitch While. It’s not yet known whether any of that trio have been selected in the final team. 2024 AAMI State Game SANFL West End State Team vs Smithy’s VFL State Team Saturday, April 6, 2024 12:40pm SA time/1:10pm AEDT Stratarama Stadium, Glenelg
