I made mention of this in my report about Casey’s game last Saturday night against Collingwood VFL but will repeat it for you because many people are still trying to digest the information. This week Casey is slated as the host at ETU Stadium, Port Melbourne, home of the famous Burraberger (but not sure if available for this event), against Essendon’s VFL team. ETU Stadium is in Williamstown Road, Port Melbourne and once simply went by the very plain tag of North Port Oval. Anyway, if you’re in the area, please come along and support the boys who are going for their fourth win on the trot.

And that’s all there is - a win to Casey by 9 points.

Cox goals at the 27 minute mark. The lead is 8 points to Casey

… to Cross. The field umpire did his level best to convince the goal umpire but she didn’t budge.

That’s a goal …

Jack Billings surprises by kicking straight - a final quarter goal at last.

And on cue an easy miss by TC followed by a coast to coast goal to the Pies. Two points in it.

Still anyone’s game at 43 - 36 after that Collingwood goal.

Five minutes into the last and the lead is down to 11 points.

The game is being played on Saturday night at 7.10pm at Mission Whitten Oval in Barkly Street, Footscray ... of course.

An 11 goal last quarter to the Casey Demons and a great win. It’s not hard to win against lowly teams but this was sublime.
