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?

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.
