Blease has played 1 game - let me repeat that ONE GAME - in nearly 2 years. He along with Watts were the two youngest players taken in the 2008 draft (we took young guns because GC17 got dibs on all the good 17yo's in 2009). Serious injury - remember Nathan Brown??? - needs plenty of time.

You may be frustrated but FFS be realistic about how long it takes to build footballers.

I so agree with your comment, to many times on here, you read comments about players and there so called lack of development. Its a tough game and players need time to build a strong fitness base, before they can be expected to start playing good football.

Bate is an example. He was a guy that had interupted pre-season and wasnt 100% fit in the early rounds and lots we wanting to give the flick, Now as the weeks go by and his fitness improves you can see him getting better.

Last night was his best game of the year and I would expect him to improve further. Watts is same boat.

Hughes has taken a while also but showed plenty to suggest he can make it.

Go Casey.... Hmmmm wonder whats up with blease maybe soreness?? i imagine he would still get some pain

Sam Blease did start the game but went off with shin soreness early in the game.

Three quarter time: Casey Reserves 9.8.62 to 7.4.46.

Kyle Matthews was discharged from Eppworth Rehab Hospital. He's recovering well and it is hoped he will be back at the club in the near future. Hard to determine his chances of playing this year but he is making good progress and is back on track.

1 point win to Coburg. 14.10 to 14.9. Came from 20 down with a few mins to go but couldn't get up. Gutsy effort.

Are you serious? The kid did not play a game last year and has not played four quarters Casey seconds football this year.

It's frustrating as a supporter who wants to see him play, not frustrating from a physical point of view where I think he should be further advanced than he is.

Sheesh, take a chill pill everyone.

That cant be good, really disappointing. Looks as though we will need more patience with Blease than we do with Watts due to this injury.

Quarter Time: Casey lead 3.5.23 to 1.5.11.

Two goals to Jack Watta.

Beauty! any idea what sort of goals, well earned or cheapies?

First one he marked on the wing from a turnover. Got a 50 and kicked it straight over the umpires hat from about 40 out on an angle.

Second time he marked on the lead from a Maric kick. Kicked it from about 50 out, again a perfect kick.

Anyone know if i can listen to this game online anywhere?

62-19, Scorps seem to be all over it.

Morton with a goal from 50.

Aussie off with what the commentators are saying is a shoulder problem?

Oh Jesus.

Watts' watch?

Are the opposition just crap? Or are the Scorps playing well?

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
