Casey Scorpions v Collingwood

Featured Replies

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the club require any out of contract players to sign a waiver to play with Casey in the finals? Because if an out of contract player suffered a significant injury, like an ACL, playing for Casey, they would be required to be kept on the list next season... Ie. the club couldn't delist them? I remember hearing something along these lines a couple of years ago.....
I also recall this too.
 

Oh, quit the hysterics.

They were slated for operations to get them ready for our early start to preseason.

The success of Sandringham should illustrate to the Casey supporters how seriously we take our 'reserves.'

And anyone that has to have the screenname 'insider' - is no such thing.

"No, I am sure am an insider Mr.rpfc. Honest. I have all the info and everything, but I just happen to think that 'Casey player availability' is worth breaking a trust and informing the public, over other obviously more important things I know about because of my insider-ness."

Please.

VFL record said that Kyle Cheney was eligable to play and Jordie McKenzie was also.

ok so we have mckenzie and cheney as two who were available and who didnt play. have we got any other suggestions?

i find it amazing how the people who slagged the club when this first came up have not been willing to put up anything...especially considering i completely i agree with you if it is true. pity it appears to be a bit of bravo...

i think a implication that the entire squad, or at the all the boys who had played a game or two with sandy, and the coaching staff weren't out to support casey is worse. can anyone confirm their appearance/non appearance?

 

Both Mckenzie and Cheney had minor ankle surgery on Tuesday last week, nothing serious just getting spurs removed, case closed?

Look who's hysterical.

I'd imagine most of the players would be out of town enjoying some holidays... Pre-season starts early October, they'd want to make the most of their break...

probably, and if they are overseas or out of town thats fair enough, but you would think that there should be an official delegation from the club at the match, and given the number of playres who are in, or have been sloted in for surgery the past week or two one would think there would be a large contingent still in melbourne.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
