CASEY SCORPIONS v FRANKSTON


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

Hope you're right Rjay. But I'm not a big believer in getting young players to play in a significantly lower grade. Generally equals loss of form and greater chance of injury as you hold back.

Agree with you 'Return', I would rather see Taggert get a taste of AFL (has the size and skill to play the level, he's not a skinny kid) as soon as he gets a couple of good games under his belt. Casey two's is not the spot for that.

Kent is another that will be better for an AFL run, another not a skinny kid.

We have attack record of doing that. Ie Lucas Cook. Yes, he didn't make it but its not a move that helps the cause in terms of confidence IMO

Taggert was being talked up last yr by mfc coaches as one to watch, have some balls Melbourne and [censored] off some of our list cloggers and give kids like Taggert, Tynan a chance to develop properly in the Vfl seniors.

We got rid of a large number of list cloggers this year. But you are right and it is a real concern how many we still have left on the list...

Why can't the club explain Tynan and Taggarts situation? Another example of shyte communications.

I asked the two players in question and the development coach at training this morning, also read Heartbeat you get a bit more info, and there is a report on Club website on both from last week's game...shyte post on your part really

Here's hoping some players like Strauss, Jetta, Davies, Taggert, Spencer, Gawn and Tynan can show something as well as Kent - I think Melbournes rebuild means playing many younger players and hoping they will want to give all for this club.

Really hope Sylvia, Nicholson, Gillies and Seller are dropped. If I was the coach, I'd be telling them to get desperate because it could be your last ever AFL game.

Wonder if the AFL would beend the rules and allow Hogan to play if the MFC requested it.

The crowd is observing a minute's silence for 2006 Scorpions B&F David Biagi, who died of cancer late last year.

I find it simply amazing that Taggert is playing in this group at a time when we cant find a midfielder to bless ourselves with. Did we recruit him with VFL seconds in mind? Has he gone backwards? Did he not have it from the outset? What does playing VFA seconds do to a young players confidence? I just don't get this and as he's not in the better players does this mean he stays there? What is the story?

This story has been covered so many times. He had a debilitating back injury and they are bringing him back through the vfl 2s

You don't expect us mugs to accept that explanation do you?

Could someone find out the name of Casey's CEO. I want him sacked!

Tapscott & Evans goal.

Scores 2.1.13 to 2.1.13

KC I know it's hard to keep track of everyone's requests but if possible would it be alright to cover Jetta and Strauss this afternoon. The level we need a running HBF was so evident last night, whoever is best out of those two should get a run against WCE.

Thanks again and go scorps

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
