George Grey has replaced Andy Moniz-Wakefield who is Casey’s mystery injury this week (although he appeared to have sustained an injury late in last week’s game).

The undefeated Hawks have a very strong lineup that’s been bolstered by a few players coming down from their AFL team. This is going to be a tough contest.

In recent years, there’s been a build up of rivalry between the Casey Demons and the Box Hill Hawks and this weekend the two sides go bush to Wonthaggi. After their surprise defeat at home to Richmond last week, Casey will be desperate to win against the undefeated Hawks to retain a top four placing. It won’t be easy.

Casey Demons lose their first game for the season.
