I think it has been largely missed by most that two of the clubs top picks and great talents are both finally off the injury list and playing for Casey Reserves this weekend.

Sam Blease - 2008 Pick 17

Luke Tapscott - 2009 Pick 18

Lets hope both these boys get through the game on Saturday!!!

Good Luck

    Very excited about these two, Especially Tapscott. I still fear for Sammy's leg. I pray he gets through okay.

    Lets not expect a lot from these two.. Both have been away due to injury. Lets just see them pull up well after the game. Good to see them named in the side.

    Just got back from Werribee. Watched the first quarter of the reserves.

    Blease started on half back and had about 10 possies for the quarter linking up all over the park and hitting blokes on the [censored] at full pace. Kicked a magic goal from the pocket on the run. He is one classy footballer. He was blowing hard when he came off for a rest

    Tapscott was also in thinks early missing a couple of shots at goal, heard him complain about a lack of "drive" in his leg to the medicos. Obviously not back to full strength from the op. He was very much getting himself into contests and was at the bottom of the pack on a few occasions.

    I was there until half time. Both Bleeze and Tapscott got better as the game went on. In the second quarter you could even see them teaming very well together, particularly seeing them combine brilliantly for Bleeze to kick a brilliant long goal.

    I agree Tapscott was off target early, and surprisingly had several shots inside 50 which did not make the distance. Clearly, he is not yet fully fit and understandably has not yet got his full strength back. However, a good sign was he never shirked an issue in close and has lost none of that hardness that he was allegedly recruited for.

    Overall, from what I saw from two quarters of football I think we have two potential stars lurking in Casey 2s.

    Nice to see the boys getting a run. Still sounds like another 2 weeks in the Casey 2s before pushing for Casey ones based on fitness.

    We might see some form in the Casey ones in 4-6 weeks time, which will be exciting for us next season.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
