Casey Scorpions v Werribee Tigers


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Whats the deal with Taggert, brand new recruit and plays 2 games for the season? You got to be kidding me.

Basically a wasted draft pick. Kids drafted this year will be ahead of him from the word go.

If you watched his game at Box Hill you would know that this kid can really play. Poise, good size, decision making and great kick, seems like the type of player we need.

Pity he didn't get on the park enough but a really good pick for a 2nd rounder, one year in the system playing or not still keeps him ahead of the game.

I notice the number of Demons eligible to play for Casey in the finals (after this week when selection is open) is now down to only eight – Eight Demons eligible for VFL finals

Jake Spencer is the player taken off the previous list, presumably because he played too many AFL games (?).

That’s a blow to the Scorps and might explain why, despite finishing on top, they are fifth in the line of favouritism for the flag according to the Herald Sun.

In that case then it isn't worth unsettling the Scorps winning ways to give Fitz one meaningless game & put Spence in the Casey team, for just one match? then further unsettle them again into the first week of Finals.

Are we trying to stop Casey again???

We all know we want pick 3 & 4 in the draft, so why wreck Casey for nothing?

We do not even need to consider them in our selection process-although it's nice that you have .

Casey is getting a lot out of the relationship already .

We can be mean to her and use her how we like.

and dump her if she starts to get annoying .

KC, has Valenti had another really good year or is he just favourite based on past performances in the award?

Valenti is a good VFL footballer but is not tall enough and too slow to go further. At VFL level, he's very much like another Liston contender, Tom Couch, a ball magnet who dominates.

so if a team is losing, it means they don't take their side seriously? maybe their VFL players just aren't that good? seriously mate pick the right time and place to have a go at other clubs

Let's see Box Hill Hawks in the VFL finals and Collingwood out - the conventional wisdom is that standalone resrves is better but I'm not so sure.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
