CASEY SCORPIONS vs WERRIBEE TIGERS (Reserve Grade)

Saturday 20th August

Casey Fields at 11:00 AM

Any news? Hows the Turtle going?

SEN said that he has done his ankle. Nothing more than that though.

I don't care what anyone says, If your the U18 AA CHF and your struggling to get a kick playing VFL 2's something Is wrong. Maybe It Is fatigue or maybe he's carrying an injury but lets be honest VFL 2's Is a poor standard and he should be killing em.

And so was Watts in his first year. FFS he is only 19.

And you want to recruit a proven 2 club disaster!!

Gee you are really struggling RR...comparing Fevola and Cook- you would have to be on the turps if you can't grasp that..Firstly..Fevola has been and could still be a quality proven experienced capable Full forward. JW is trying to establish himself in the team yet alone capable of being the player that even Fevola is now.

JW-If you can remember Jack came to us as a 17 year old who didn't do a pre season. He played Collingwood in the Queens Birthday round and played a further 2 games. In 2010- he dubuted playing in Round 8 due to a back injury and played the rest of the 15 matches and has played 19 matches this year so far.Jack is now just 20 less than a year older than Cook whom doesn't even look like getting a game with Casey firsts for the rest of the year. And don't forget this guy was the young man that went down in a heap after getting a small touch up at training earlier in the year. He may be mentally and physically too soft for AFL in my opinion, or at least at this stage. that is the difference b/w Fevola, Watts & Cook.Maybe you should get to a few Casey games before your mouth off like you do.

Is this going to be a Casey thread or a 'drafting / Cook' slanging match? Would love to get any impressions of the Casey Ressies, and any updates on the seniors. Did Wonna do an ankle??

Casey Ressies score another easy win and seem certain to finish in 3rd place and make the finals for the first time in years.

I couldn't see Aussie out there so the story about the ankle injury might be right.

I believe Lucas Cook might not have played at all - someone just said they saw him in civvies just as the game ended.

Thanks KC, always appreciate your updates!

The Casey Seniors have come out for a bit of a pre match run.

Of the MFC emergencies, I see Neville Jetra and Dan Nicholson but not Lynden Dunn.

The only concern with Cook is that Darling looks like a ready-made star.

From what I saw of him in the NAB Cup I still think we will be good, but letting Darling slip by hurts at the moment.

Panozza kicks Casey's first but they trail by a point.

Goals to Fevola and Lawrence give Casey the edge by 11 points.

And another to Kelvin Lawrence who has started off like a house on fire.

Thanks KC

Did the much maligned Cook do much, from what you saw??

I didn't see a great deal of the game and, as I mentioned above, I think he might not have played at all today as he was seen in civvies at the end of the game. He's a young bloke who's had a tough transition from Under 18s to senior level and he did show some good form earlier in the season. Will improve with off season gym work and a good preseason.

Quarter Time Casey Scorpions 5.0.30 to Werribee 1.3.9

Goals Lawrence 2 Bate Fevola Pannoza

Matthew Bate, Neville Jetta and Kelvin Lawrence have all been very good. Bater kicked a nice, long goal just before the break to cap off an excellent quarter for the Scorpions.

A beautiful Fevola shepherd allows Fitzpatrick to kick a great running goal.

Rian McGough goals and it's 7.3.45 to 1.4.10.

Rian McGough goals and it's 7.3.45 to 1.4.10.

Goal to Nev Jetta from a nice snap.

Nice grab from Bate for his second and the lead is almost 7 goals.

Fev kicks his second after a couple of Werribee goals. Close to half time with the Scorpions in control.

Half Time Casey 10.4.64 to Werribee 4.7.31

The team is combining well and playing a strong brand of team football. They have this well in control and every Demon is performing. They should go on to win comfortably.

Good to see Trenners, Tappy & Jordie Mac here supporting the boys.

How is bail playing?

How is bail playing?

Rohan is right in the game and making a good comeback after such a long time out. I'm not sure whether he will have enough run in his legs to get back into the Melbourne team before the season's out but it's good to see him back.

Was dissapointed Jetta wasnt selected this week, hard at it and his form in the vfl has been ok.
