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.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
