So is Juice out there?

So is Juice out there?

Not in the Ressies.

You'll probably find that he'll line up in the main game.

[The Lobster Effect 845]

as bad as juice is i think he's at least senior casey scorpions level and not their reserves!

[KC from Casey 6,776]

Casey lead by 5 goals at the final break - 10.11.71 to 6.5.41.

The Scorpions were off target with 3.9 to 1.0 for the quarter and might yet rue their wastefulness in front of the goals. Despite the good lead the game is still evenly poised with Coburg coming home with a gale.

Cameron Johnston best for the Scorpions. Weekes and McShane also playing well for the Scorps.

[KC from Casey 6,776]

Scorps in trouble as Coburg fight back to within a goal. Plenty of time left.

[KC from Casey 6,776]

Scores level in time on.

[KC from Casey 6,776]

After Coburg levelled the scores, a Scorpions goal got them in front but the Tigers fought back to level the scores again. It was Coburg that got up to win with a point on the siren.

Casey Scorpions 6.0.36 7.2.44 10.1 .71 11.13.79

Coburg Tigers 1.2.8 5.5.35 6.5.41 12.8.80

Thanks KC. Over here in Adelaide and looking forward to your reports.

[KC from Casey 6,776]

A pre game blow to the Casey Scorpions with the withdrawal of Robbie Campbell who had a great game in the ruck last week. Apparently, injured himself doing weights. Casey are down to only eight Melbourne listed players including Michael Newton who is back after being out since May with a foot injury. His only game since was a limited run in the reserves last week against the Bullants.

Today's team is:

CASEY SCORPIONS

Half backs Stockdale Panozza Macdonald

Gawn doing well in the ruck for Casey but he's going to have to do it himself.
