The Casey Demons ominous nature is growing by the week.

The Dees made the trip to Downer Oval in Williamstown on Saturday, and while the Gulls have struggled to get off the grid at this stage of the season, it still remains one of the harder trips in the VFL.

Casey led at the first change, before trailing at the half by a solitary behind.

Mark Corrigan’s men shifted into gear after the main break, booting a dazzling nine goals to three.

Ben Brown slotted two for the match, as did Kade Chandler, Bailey Laurie, Mitch White, Jacob Van Rooyen and Andy Moniz-Wakefield.

Majak Daw gave his midfielders first use with 25 hit outs, but his performance was highlighted by a huge pack mark in front of the Downer Oval pavilion.

The cold and often wet conditions of Williamstown’s main deck are suited perfectly for Jimmy Munro, who applied a ridiculous 13 tackles.

Between he and White, the pair laid 22 of the sides 77 tackles.

The 15.10 (100) to 9.11 (65) win over the Seagulls has Casey now 3-0, with Coburg and Richmond in its sights over the next fortnight.
