No, not yet. They are early stages in their development. I would expect they will play in a number of positions just like nearly every bloke who has come through the VFL to AFL.

And could you please use caps, commas and tidy up your grammar FFS. I promised I'd never rip someone on this but it does my head in. Are you Wayne Brittain??

grammar i can understand sometimes, but caps and commas? sheeesh!

OK we'll make it easier to undertsand. Cook & Fitz will neeed to develop their games before either can hold down a key position and that's not going to be this year by which time Fev will be gone.

If you don't think there is something for a young forward to learn from playing with Fev you haven't been paying attention.

Agreed. Put em either side of the Fev and tell em to "Watch and learn".

As long as they're only learning what the Fev's doin ON the field and not off it!

Have to agree to disagree, I think havin Fev there will only stunt there growth and exposure to the big boys

I just think being the main target and getting the ball kicked to you more often will help than sitting next to Fev and learning

Would love a report on the other Dees playing

If we didn't have anyone else to kick goals I'd say there might be some merit in getting Fev in order to give Casey some structure and make it easier for our developing forwards, but we're going to have guys like Newton, Martin, Petterd, Bate, Dunn and even Spencer up forward in addition to Howe, Cook, Fitz, etc.

As a side issue and I'm not sure if this has been picked up before or commented on, but on the Casey list is one Ryan Pendlebury. Yes, he is the brother of Scott. A mate of mine met him by chance a few days back and it turns out the Pendlebury's were (are??) Dees supporters.

If Ryan can turn out to be half as good as his brother, I trust the MFC keep a close eye on him.

In his own words

What type of player are you?

I can win my own ball, play as a big or a small and I have a good left-foot kick.

Which AFL player do you feel you resemble and why?

Scott Pendlebury, my brother. I'm the same sort of player and I watch him every week and base my game around what he does.

What are your strengths as a footballer?

Good kick, good decision maker, clean hands, good vision and awareness.

What parts of your game would you like to improve?

To become more consistent and turn my bad games into average games. I also want to improve my kicking on my opposite foot.

As a side issue and I'm not sure if this has been picked up before or commented on, but on the Casey list is one Ryan Pendlebury. Yes, he is the brother of Scott. A mate of mine met him by chance a few days back and it turns out the Pendlebury's were (are??) Dees supporters.

x 2.

And after seeing Fevola's efforts in the easy win over Frankston, I would have thought there is also alot not to learn from Fevola on the ground.

any match reports ?

KC flew north after the game on Sunday to meet up with his family. His report should be up some time during the day today.
