Gone Under the Radar!!



Recommended Posts

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

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.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
