This weekend: Casey Demons v Box Hill Hawks - Sunday, March 24, 12pm, Casey Fields

Recruit Kade Kolodjashnij collected plenty of ball in his first hitout of the pre-season after an adductor injury hampered his preparation post-Christmas.

Midfielder Billy Stretch also impressed, while Declan Keilty's marking was a highlight in the two-goal win over Box Hill in blustery conditions.

Ruckman Braydon Preuss went head-to-head with Hawk Marc Pittonet and while the new Demon won his fair share of stoppages, Pittonet had his measure around the ground.

Former Casey Demon Jay Lockhart, who earlier this month was added to the Demons' AFL list via the supplemental selection period, continued his rise since becoming a full-time footballer.

Josh Wagner was another to perform strongly to put his name in the frame for senior selection after a disappointing AFL result on Saturday.
