Football fans are a funny lot. More than one of the spectators at yesterday's intraclub game at Casey Fields confused the Reds player wearing # 4 with Jack Watts and the # 20's on both sides with Colin Garland. Of course neither Watts nor Garland took part in the game but this didn't stop one or two idiots from aiming their barbs at JW look alike Cam Purdy a Casey recruit from East Ringwood who did well in the game.

I've managed to glean some information on the Casey top up players. It's not exhaustive but if anyone has additional information on the blokes I'll add it as it comes through. These blokes, many of them still in their teens, did a terrific job and their experience in training with the group and playing in this game should hold them in good stead in the coming season.
