Demons forwards dine out in VFL goal-fest

2021-04-18T14:56+10:00

Melbourne forwards Sam Weideman and Ben Brown kicked 10 goals between them in the VFL as they push for senior selection.

Weideman finished with a seven-goal haul while Brown booted three majors in Casey’s 51-point win over the Box Hill Hawks on Sunday.

It’s a welcome sight for Demons fans with Weideman (leg) and Brown (knee) having injury interrupted pre-seasons.

The latter arrived from North Melbourne during the off-season and is yet to debut for his new club after undergoing knee surgery in February.

It’s gives coach Simon Goodwin a selection headache - how to fit Weideman, Brown and Tom McDonald in the same forward line.

McDonald, Luke Jackson and Bayley Fritsch, who will miss two weeks with a fractured hand, have functioned well together inside 50 in the early part of the season.

The Demons are 4-0 heading into Sunday’s match against Hawthorn at the MCG.
