After last week’s bye, the final game of the season is upon the Casey Demons and it’s a curtain raiser for the AFL game at People’s First Stadium. This fixture should serve as a great pointer as to why there should never be an odd number of teams in a competition because I have completely lost my train of thought as to where the Demons are at with this season. Oh, that’s right, they’re going nowhere and their opponents are playing in the finals.

And that’s the ball game.

That’s the Bulldogs’ 7th straight against the wind.

Hard to believe that the Bulldogs have been inside 50 only 4 times more than Casey.

A coupla goals to Jeffo is the only joy here. Unfortunately, Footscray are scoring as well.

Jefferson gets his second and it’s three in a row against the wind.

Long story but two of their experienced VFL recruits Connolly and Hustwaite are long term injured.
