I have seen this kid play for Casey and he is a gun.

This crap is just becoming way too common.

Absolutely disgusted. Kyle would have to be one of the bravest footballers I have ever seen, I wish him a speedy and full recovery, and hope the Karma bus gets the rissole that did it.

Agree absolutely. I hope the karma bus delivers the culprit straight to jail.

A further update from the Casey Scorpions' website - http://www.scorpions.com.au/

Kyle has made positive progress in the last week and was moved out of intensive care on the Easter weekend. He'll remain in hospital for a few more days, and will then begin a period of specific rehabilitation. The club wishes Kyle and his family all the best as he progresses down the road to recovery.

David Bell, who sustained a leg injury in the same incident, is up and about and the club is hopeful he will make his Scorpions debut in 2-3 weeks.

Best wishes to Kyle Mathews and his family for a speedy recovery.

On another note, there is another gruesome lesson in this for all regarding fights. It will soon be forgetten and we'll all shake our heads when there is the next alcohol related report of violence.

Nothing positive comes out of fights. Nobody wins and everyone loses (in some cases their life). A pity there is not the basic sense of agitators to walk away.

I don't usually go on about law and order as a political issue but this is really one that needs some thought followed up by action from government, the courts and the police to stamp out violent louts. Where there's drink involved there should also be more responsibility taken by the pubs that serve the alcohol that often fuels the violence. The particular hotel where this incident occurred was also associated with the activities of certain Collingwood footballers not that long ago. I'm certainly no wowser but there are certain parts of this city that I wouldn't go near on any evening.

To Kyle who is about as courageous as they come on the footy field and to David Bell who was also injured in the incident, speedy recovery and see you soon at Casey.

Good News indeed. Kyle's a beauty, & leads by example.

Best of Health Kyle.

Inaccurate Scorpions rein in Cats

Skipper Kyle Matthews is expected to leave hospital in the next few days after suffering head injuries in an assault at a Melbourne nightclub a fortnight ago.

Gotch said the incident had shocked the club. "Kyle was such an innocent party in all of this," he said.

"I spoke to his father on Friday and he told me that Kyle was beginning to get bored in hospital, which shows that his mind has become active again, which is great news."

Great news indeed. First step to get out of hospital. Next rehab and let's hope we see him back in action soon!

Report in Inside Football suggests that Kyle faces a long rehab and won't be playing at all this year.

I wish him well on the long road to recovery.

Seconded!

KYLE MATTHEWS IN VFL RECORD

Casey Scorpions captain Kyle Matthews is making slow but steady progress after being assaulted outside a hotel earlier this year and now hopes to resume his football career before the 2010 season is over. He's doing some light training and is looking forward to the day when he's back on the track in full flight.

Its good to see everyone back at the club and were winning so that makes it even better. Everyone is playing well and were winning all the close games and thats a good sign.

Everyone believes in what Gotchy (coach Brad Gotch) says and everyone believes in each other. Im feeling better by the day, the injuries are healing and hopefully I can get back before the end of the season.

The doctors have said I should play football again and Im hoping that will be towards the end of the year, but the way were playing Id struggle to get a game.

If he gets back to full fitness, mature age rookie chance? Was thinking about this last year.

I was wondering that as well, There would be stranger things happen than rooky-ing Kyle as a mature ager.

PS: How would he go as a small defender???

STILL unable to work or drive a car, Casey Scorpions captain Kyle Matthews has spoken of the vicious assault that left him with serious head injuries and forced him out of football.

Casey Scorpion player faces gruelling recovery after brutal assault

As a member of the brain injury list (from a accident not a bashing from which I have fully recovered), this makes me so mad. I know how much of a long road the man has and I wish him all the best. It took me 3 years to get over mine and it might take the same for him. ohhhh I can't put into words how mad I am.....

People are shite, I'm sorry, but you read this sort of thing and you think how do we get to a point where gutless pricks just bash people for their own bloody enjoyment.

I hope the offenders get to spend the rest of their miserable lives rotting in jail, because they are clearly a waste of space in society.

Good luck Kyle!

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
