Is it correct that the club can only play 12 AFL listed players? This would lead to some good AFL players involved in the reserves.

The 12 player rule only applies where an AFL affiliated side plays against a stand alone club like Frankston or Port Melbourne. It would not apply to a game v North Ballarat which has a partial alignment with North Melbourne.

Still three Dees in the Casey ressies isn't bad. Blease, Fitzpatrick and Aussie being eased in slowly on the bench.

Rivers, Miller, Watts, Newton, Spencer, Johnson and Matin make a seriously good group of talls for VFL level!

That would have looked very similar to our group of talls for Melbourne last year, shows you just how far we've come in a short amount of time.

Some welcome returns for Aussie and Blease!

Agreed. Also good to see Jetta back on the Park. And, is the Bell named on the bench Daniel Bell? If so, great to see.

Yes, some real talent running around with Casey. Puts good pressure on the guys in the Melb team to keep their spots, with guys putting in good performances at Casey.

I count 19 MFC listed player/rookies playing at both levels this week. (16 in the seniors and 3 in the ressies).

This is probably the healthiest our list has been in AGES.

With Morton back in 2 weeks, our only injuries now are 3 pretty insignificant injuries + Jurrah

- Gawn (first yr player 206cm was never going to make an impact in 2009)

- Tapscott (potentially could have played a few games this year, but first year player unlikely to make huge onfield impact)

- Meesan (rookie who is probably 3-4th best ruck. Considering Jamar is dominating, I doubt he'd be playing seniors anyways

Can't wait to see Jurrah and Morton back, and for Watts, Wona and Rivers to come back into the team, but apart from that our starting 22 looks pretty good

i might go watch this if i do will do a report on our players

Rivers, Miller, Watts, Newton, Spencer, Johnson and Matin make a seriously good group of talls for VFL level!

How is the spine: -

Martin and Gysberts as followers.

Gysberts shouldn't be too far away from a debut in the seniors.

No-Dan Bell is the guy whom got into the fight that Mathews got cleaned up.Daniel Bell trained this moring though.

Thanks for clarification. Also good to hear Daniel is back training.

Actually, it is Daniel Bell.

The other player involved in the fight outside the Geebung Polo Club Hotel was David Bell.

That would have looked very similar to our group of talls for Melbourne last year, shows you just how far we've come in a short amount of time.

it looks to me like we've just decided that unless they are good enough they don't get a game, and decided we'd play short!

I can't make it to the game at Ballarat today but I hope we'll have plenty of support at the ground and some correspondents on hand at Eureka Stadium.

I'll do my best to update you with scores from the ground and whatever information I'm able to pick up during the day.

I can report that the Scorpions Reserves have broken the ice for season 2010 with a one point win over North Ballarat.
