Werribee v Casey Scorpions


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts

The Casey Scorpions return will return to action after a week's rest in the first weekend of the split round facing a real danger game against Werribee who have had the "wood" over them in recent seasons. They play the Tigers (who have knocked them out of the past two finals series at the semi final stage) on Sunday at Avalon Airport Oval which hasn't particularly been a happy hunting ground for the Scorps.

SUNDAY JULY 14

Werribee vs Casey Scorpions at Avalon Airport Oval, Werribee 2pm (Vision Australia Radio, Aussie Digital)

(Development League match at 11am)

Making things interesting is the fact that Werribee will be saddling up in the first semi final of the Foxtel Cup against WAFL side East Fremantle at Patersons Stadium tomorrow night in a game that will be telecast live on Fox Footy from 8.30pm. With a five day break between that game and Sunday and a long trip west and back, the Tigers will be hard pressed to stop Casey's current winning streak despite their home ground advantage.

On another note, bad news for former Geelong VFL player Casey Tutungi who also had a stint with the Casey Scorpions (prior to its alignment with Melbourne) whose family has confirmed that he is a quadriplegic as a result of an accident during a recent local game - Family confirms footballer Casey a quadriplegic. I trust the football community will get behind the player and his family. Another former Casey player, Beau Vernon also suffered a similar terrible injury last year while playing for Leongatha.

Please give consideration to helping Casey and his partner who are expecting a child soon.

His injury is a tragedy and, though he wasn't involved at the Scorps in the time of our alignment, I hope Demon fans are generous with their hearts for the family.

An absolute tragedy. Footy can be a brutal game, but at times like these it has a compassionate side. Time for the entire football community to dig deep for Casey, his partner and unborn babe. An important role here for the AFL.

Switched on to the game towards the end of the last quarter. They were playing in a lake! Rain bucketing down, and pools of water on the ground! Me thinks that experience just may take a lot out of Werribee, and make it that much harder for them to back up against Casey. Here's hoping, anyway...!

Looking like a heavy track again this weekend.

Jetta playing in the reserves. Looks like it could be the end for him

Wow. On his form early this year I thought he'd really cement a spot in the best 22, but after his suspension everything just went to shite for him.

All the players named on the extended bench are also named in the field in the development league.

With the exception of Couch! Does that mean that he is a guaranteed starter in the ones?

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    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
