The longest quarter in the history of football!!. Casey have been great. Hopefully can make it pay in the second quarter!!

Quarter Time: Casey Scorpions 3.2.20 to Coburg Tigers 2.5.17 kicking against a strong wind.

Goals Stockdale Waite Zomer

I remember seeing Zomer in a praccy match out at Casey at the start of the year and i was impressed. Expected him to start really pushing his name forward this year considering hes on his 2nd year of a rookie contract.

Unfortunately, hes been stuck in the reserves obviously through form and a strong casey forward line.

With the chances been given to Newton and Co in the MFC side this week, hopefully Zomer can seize the oppotunity...

We could do with another key forward/ruckman.

Great goal in the 1st quarter...

Tigers better against the wind and get the first goal of the second.

Any chance we can get Kyle Mathews on our list next year and just stick him in our forward line to just tackle and harass the opposition?

He is an absolute terrier, i love watching him play.

Nice goal buckley.

How old is he? Is he worth a rookie listing? Love the way he goes about it.

Pretty happy with simon buckley.

Danny huehges having a pretty good game, would like to see them both get a game before seasons end.

Half time and it's a hard fought 4 goal lead to the Scorps - 7.6.48 to 3.6.24.

Question is can they keep it up and will my battery last?

Robbo...... I saw you on Fox Sorts News during the week and you were saying that you have never felt better (physically) and that you still have a lot to offer the Melbourne Football Club.... When asked if you were not re-signed by the Dees would you still look to play footy elsewhere you said "Definately, I love the Melbourne Football Club, but if my time for the Demons is up I would definately be looking to play footy for another club. I still have a lot to offer AFL football...."

Don't just talk bull$hit Robbo..... THe way you are going today you may not even get back into the Senior side this season! If our forwards have a good match tomorrow in Sydney, you will be overlooked and rightly so.... Show some effort.... If only you put the same amount of effort in chasing and tackling as you do into trying to take hangers and falling over, you would be up in Canberra as we speak!!

Lift your game Boy!!!

It's a shame Buckley can't hit teammates like he splits the middle of the goals when he kicks on the run. I really enjoy watching Buckley play, and he is one of the few Melbourne players who can pick the ball up below his knees with speed and run away from packs, but his decision making is still a worry.

Score and game updates anyone? Im without TV today

Casey by 9 points 20 min mark 3rd qtr.

Three Quarter Time: Casey 9.7.61 to Coburg 7.11.53

Fantastic endeavour from the Casey boys. They have the wind in the last quarter and as long as they keep working hard they will make this an historic victory.

Anymore updates after 3/4 time??

up by 28 late in the last

Casey by 34 points late in the game.

Dog of a day for our man robbo.

When the coburg player kicked his boot away after the spoil contest....must have been a kick in the guts!

James Wall won the ABC Man of the Match award

With 11 changes from last week and only a few Melbourne listed players, against a ( Richmond loaded ) Coburg, Casey was sensational in winning today.

Peter German has moulded together a great team and football club.

If only Waite was a couple of years younger maybe he could be that strong key forward.

Yes we we're, but Coburg we're by the same measure, very average, very average indeed.

There were quite a few Coburg players that were playing for their careers today and I doubt that many of them will be there next year after this effort today. Casey were great today, they tackled, harassed and pressured Coburg and that's why they won.

Pettifer went down with looked like a career ending knee injury. Some of the supposed Richmond name players were awful today.

Didn't see the game, how did Bucks, Spencer, Zomer, Liddle, McNamara go?

Macnamara didnt play

Buckley imo played well, produced good run and attack on the ball and linked up well, disposal not as good though was very windy conditions.

Spencer didnt have much impact on the game, but would pass as ok.

Zomer kicked a cracker of a goal, were he ran right passed a couple of opponents and kicked a goal, didnt doto much other than that.

Liddle was pretty good small speedy kind of player put his head ovre the ball a few times , was good.
