Now don't take this the wrong way but they have been underdone since we drafted them!

If underdone is out injured for long periods of time since drafted....well yeah they've been underdone !

    Yes that is what I mean

    IMO they have been the big disappointments in our drafting efforts so far.

    If you cannot get / stay on the park it does not matter how good you are.

    I hope we are not seeing two players who never get to show their wares because they are injury prone.

    That's what I said to the guys at work. I'm excited to take the boys down there to watch scully and have a kick on the ground!

    Well i expect Scully to come in for someone..

    Trengove will come in

    I still think Strauss is better than Nicholson and Bennell so he'll come in with an extra game of match fitness.

    Be really good game to be at tomorrow and i'm looking forward to it.

    Petrol tank not so much

    Someone on another thread said this game is more important to our future than last night. Looking at some of the potential matchups they might be right.

    Gawn V Hudson

    Howe v Gilbee

    Blease v Djerrkura

    McDonald v Hahn

    Strauss v Sherman

    Massive test for some of our kids against hardened mature bodies with plenty of AFL experience. On top of that Scully returns. My plans for this arvo have just changed, can't miss this.

    Can anyone tell me if this is at the main Werribee oval, the one near the river, can't find the address.

    Reported on SEN that Lake and Gilbee are coming into the Footscray side to replace two injured players; Hargreave and somebody else.

    Yes furious D i typed in Avalon Airport couldn't find the oval anywhere.

    It's previously known as Chirnside Park right on the river!

    Is that Tom McNamara named as rover? Is he playing midfield now?

    I always liked TMac. Maybe he should get a game. Don't know if we have enough spots on the list for another rookie (Newton (what a waste), Evans and Nicholson have three already), but he has played a lot of good football for Casey in 2010 and 2011 with no reward. Meanwhile, Bennell, Morton and potentially Dunn continually get given starts in the seniors without doing anything for Casey.

    Some changes to the Williamstown line up made necessay by the withdrawal from the Bulldogs of Ryan Hargrave and Brodie Moles due to injury. This means that Brian Lake and Lindsay Gilbee come out of today's Seagulls' team.

    In the reserves Williamstown leads 10.9.69 to Casey Scorpions 8.1.49 at half time.

    Good to see Tom Scully warming up for his first game for the season even if it's for Casey and not Melbourne. If he's up to it he'll get more than the obligatory half a game that many get when returning from long term injury.

    In the ressies, the Seagulls ran away with it in the end.

    Casey Scorpions 4.0.24 8.1.49 9.4.58 13.5.83

    Williamstown 5.6.36 10.9.69 19.11.125 23.13.151

    Any radio coverage of todays game?

    I find the VFL coverage on the net and radio very disappointing. I follow the WAFL very keenly and they have live updates like on AFL website and radio coverage of every game on the net.

    updates would be great...

    just want to hear scully dominatin

    Need to hear some positives from Casey

    Blease and Scully are playing in the same side for the first time, lets hope the scully can extract the pill and put it out in front of Blease to put on his afterburners..... That is what I want to hear.

    Remember guys our injuries cascade down to Casey.

    If we are short 8- 10 players so are Casey from 3 weeks ago.

    I went to this same game last year with what looks like a similar result.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
