Let me guess.

Mitch Dowse and Nic Dowse are twins .

Any news on Kyle Matthews?

KC --THANKS FOR THE EFFORT. Very much appreciated.Loved it in Red & Blue.

Looking at the 2010 list- what do you feel Casey needs to do to go further? These are my thoughts-- One thing,I see is to get all players onto the park.Players like-2 Simpson Scott 19/10/1989 196 96 Geelong (AFL),is he up to a full season or get rid of him?

I think we missed a Waite Ben 30/06/1984 190 100 Old Haileybury for the year along with Stockdale Michael 29/08/1990 178 75 Gippsland Power.McDonald Luke 29/04/1990 195 92 Eastern Ranges played ok either at CHB or forward and could make a player.

And with natural improvement from the MFC list,Casey should really look forward to a higher position next year. Hopefully with their captain back in the fold-Matthews Kyle 17/12/1985 178 74 Ringwood teaming up with-I think the recruit of the year-Nicholls Danny 02/03/1987 177 80 Collingwood (VFL)/Rowville,they will make a formidable outfit.May need a ruckman and a tall backman to add to the list.Your opinions please.

The problem is that while VFL clubs can put in some preparatory recruiting work at this time and they never stop looking for prospective players, they are constrained by the fact that they need to wait till the outcome of the trades and drafts (including the rookie draft which takes place about a week before Christmas). It's only then that many players are prepared to commit and that the VFL counterparts know what to look for e.g. if Melbourne rookied 2 or 3 more ruckmen, you wouldn't expect Casey to go out and chase too many players of the same type.

Got your point totally but a seasoned CHB is what the club needs IMO. And they could go and get one of those.

Reported elsewhere on Demonland that Brad Miller might stay on in a role at the MFC which would also involve him playing with the Scorps.
