The Casey Demons are gearing up for a critical Round 13 encounter at the Kennel, facing off against the formidable Western Bulldogs at Whitten Oval this Saturday.
This week's lineup sees the introduction of two promising debutants from Gippsland, Zali Gallagher and Lilly Leighton, who are set to make their first appearance for the Dees. Their inclusion brings fresh talent and energy to the squad at a crucial juncture of the season.
Casey welcomes back ruck Lauren Jatczak, who is coming off a stellar performance with 11 disposals and 15 hitouts in the All-Stars game against the AFL National Academy Girls last week. Her return is expected to bolster Casey’s ruck options and add depth to their midfield dynamics.
This encounter is a must-win for Casey as they strive to secure a spot in the finals. The Demons are eager to bounce back after a tough loss to Collingwood last week and will be seeking redemption.
However, they face a daunting challenge in the Western Bulldogs, who are currently in impressive form and sit third on the ladder.
The Bulldogs claimed a 21-point victory when the teams last met in March, making this game an opportunity for Casey to seek redemption.
Supporters can expect a thrilling and intense match as both teams vie for crucial points. For Casey, this match is more than just a game; it’s an opportunity to prove their resolve and keep their finals hopes alive.
