Werribee Tigers v Casey Scorpions

[Sydney Pennski 270]

I thought Fitzpatrick's duel in the ruck with stronger bodied Jacobs was very even. Jack showed more pace and agilty and is a good prospect for the future. Ironically, Jacobs was elevated and was running around in the AFL last night while Fitzpatrick is off to the VFL 2's. Can you go figure that?

It has been said quite a few times already but don't read too much into Fitzy and Strauss going back.

It definately does have to do with the finals, getting games into certain players to qualify and getting time into non-listed players so they are ready for the finals.

A note on the finals which start next weekend:

The VFL will announce the dates and venues for the first week of the finals tonight. At this stage, there's a chance that Casey will be playing it's qualifying final against North Ballarat in Ballarat.

The game will probably not be televised as it seems the ABC will be doing the two elimination finals next weekend.

For those Demon fans who have had to sit thorugh their game v Port Adelaide, I guess it's no consolation to say that Bate and Miller are dominant in key forward positions here at Werribee.

Matt Fieldsend playing a great game for the Scorpions.

First blood for the final quarter to Rhys Healey - 3 minutes into the final quarter.

Tapscott?

[KC from Casey 6,730]

Halfway through the final quarter, a goal to Werribee and it's 51 points to Casey.

Tappy not doing much. Could be off the ground again.

The game has come to a standstill - Casey set for third place and Werribee playing out the season.

Word here is that the qualifying final might be on Saturday at Box Hill - North Ballarat v Casey Scorpions.
