It's not often that the Casey Reserves make the news but this week, they're the talk of the town! Fevola picked for Casey Scorpions' reserves Troubled former AFL star Brendan Fevola finally finds a home with VFL club Casey Scorpions for 2011

[Rocknroll 945]

Good to see Davis and Howe back in the Magoos.

I am really hoping Addam Maric bounces back with a BOG

Nice alsoe see Valenti running around at port. I would love to hear how he been travelling. I still have a soft spot for the little man.

[No16 1]

Would love to actually see fev line up on a half back flank...

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Would love to actually see fev line up on a half back flank...

Probably won't happen but why don't you get down to TEAC Oval tomorrow at 11am to find out?

[Bleasey as that 87]

It would be great to see Bleasey line up in the guts as selected!!!

[deeflog 679]

casey are going to be tough to beat this week, thats a strong line up for a VFL side

[sylvinator 96]

We have 4 tall forwards playing at Casey, and who'll be playing at Casey most of the year: Newton, Cook, Howe and Fitzpatrick.

Anyone else disappointed that one of the 2 available key positions will be taken up by a gambling addicted alcoholic who is no chance of playing afl ever again?

[Demon_spurs 1,726]

Haven't had a chance to check out Scorps this year, how is young Lawrence doing? He looks likely type.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

I've arrived at TEAC Oval and we're in the third quarter. Tommy McNamara has just passed beautifully to a slightly portly Brendan Fevola at full forward and he's slotted it through from 50 out.

Not that this has done the Scorps ressies much good - they trail 5.7.37 to 12.6.78.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Nice goal on an angle from Jeremy Howe narrows the margin to 33 points.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Nice snap for a goal from Jack Fitzpatrick which earned a high 5 from Fev. Tommy Mac is playing well.

The siren goes and Port leads 15.7.97 to Casey 7.8.50.

[deewakka 1]

Fev Maybe a X%&$ Off the field but an old coach once said to me you can learn leasons from any walk of life as long as you use the best of those leasons Fev can teach our young forwards how to play good footy all I want to say is boys Be a sponge learn as much as you can Deewakka

And right on cue, Fev accepts a pass from Jack Fitzpatrick and boots a goal.

I don't believe Troy Davis is out there. Haven't seen him at all.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

[Guest DeesPower]

Game about to start. Ricky Petterd is playing, as are Neville Jetta and Addam Maric.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Teams lining up an I can't see Matthew Warnock out there.

[Radar Detector 1,339]

Are the other Demon emergencies out there KC?

[KC from Casey 6,756]

First goal to Port after a 50m penalty was paid against Matt Fieldsend who intercepted when the ball was being returned for a Port free kick.

Juice has just replied.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Are the other Demon emergencies out there KC?

Ricky Petterd's playing.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Ricky Petterd's playing.

And just kicked a goal. Casey 13 Port 19

[deeflog 679]

Teams lining up an I can't see Matthew Warnock out there.

that sounds to me like there is a doubt on Garland

[Guest DeesPower]

First two goals Newton and Pettard. Joel mcd dominantly early off half back. Mostly scorps forwards playing like their seniors - missing target with very little systems and not chasing out of Attack

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Another 50 m penalty results in Port's fifth goal. They lead 33 to 14.

[KC from Casey 6,756]

Port are a well drilled side and are making the most of their opportunities with the breeze. Casey's turnovers have been costly.

Quarter Time

Casey Scorpions 2.2.14

Port Melbourne 6.3.39
