Geelong v Casey Scorpions

[KC from Casey 7,123]

This game is a special fixture and is being played tomorrow night (Friday) Sunday at Skilled Stadium at 6pm 1pm, a ground possibly too far for me to attend given its distance from my work and the time of the game.

Appreciate if any fans can keep us all informed as to what's happening.

I'll be back with the teams later this evening.

Great work (or luck) from the Scorps getting involved in the first game at skilled under lights!

Thanks AJ.

If you could keep a keen eye on Fitzy during the game it would be appreciated. There's a lot of noise in support of him making the main team so an opinion would be great.

Is Taggert playing in this game? Could not see his name on the list of the Scorpians final 23 on the VFL website.

The only MFC listed players who played in the development league game today were rookie Nathan Stark and NZ international Maia Westrupp.

Rory Taggert will probably play for Casey seniors tomorrow.

Blease and Strauss starting positions is puzzling to me

[DeeSpencer 26,094]

I'd love a report on Mitch Clisby, he's battled a few injuries (Hamstring and shin soreness) but when fit has played well and started games racking up the touches.

I think he's a cheeky chance for rookie elevation in the second half of the year.

[DeeSpencer 26,094]

Blease and Strauss starting positions is puzzling to me

Strauss is in Perth so don't worry too much about that one. Not sure if both or just one of Gillies and Spencer are in Perth as well. For Casey's case I particularly hope Spencer will be be at Geelong.

I'd love to see Blease in the backline but I feel it would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater particularly considering he strung good games together up forward last year. Plus Terlich, Watts, Jetta, Clisby and Strauss are all being developed as small defenders. We can't send everyone to the bacline to find form.

Ah ok, I just did not seem him on the final side on the VFL website.

[KC from Casey 7,123]

Geelong get the first two goals.

[Allen Jakovich 516]

First four now. Scorps defensive work and intensity around the contest is good but letting themselves down with horrendous delivery inside the forward 50. Few drops of rain now.

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Quarter time score Casey 0.6 v Geelong 4.1 after Hogan hit the post after the siren after taking a pack mark over three Geelong players. Casey had more inside 50s but disposal going in so bad. At one stage Hogan had twenty metres on his opponent and Sam blease kicked the ball another twenty over his head!

[KC from Casey 7,123]

Kent gets Casey's first.

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Goal to Hogan. Clisby has been good. cats by 13 points.

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Another to Hogan after stirring run from Pederson out from the last line of defence.

My boy Pedo!

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Clisby and fitz combine for a goal to put Casey 8 points down at half time.

[KC from Casey 7,123]

Better quarter from Casey who trail at half time 5.8.38 to 7.4.46.

It's anyone's game.

[Young Dee 1,303]

Thanks so much AJ

Liked to hear 4 youngsters going well - Kent, Clisby and Hogan, Fitzy

Don't know to much about Clisby but he seems to have more class and potential than most rookies - anyone think has more potential than the Nicho or Bail, Couch types?
