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.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
