Toumpas and Michie playing well.

How's welsh doing?

Looks a likely type and is moving well.

A Roosters goal beings it back to a 3 goal game as the rain comes down.

No he doesnt

Hes already shown he can play at AFL level

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Free and a 50 metre penalty to the Roosters makes it an 11 point game.

The Roosters came home with a barnstorming finish last week while Casey's season has been highlighted by an inability to finish off games or win the close ones. The rain might help Casey but, based on what I've been told of the Casey season to date, I'm not confident.

Exactly. He's a 19 year old playing a needed stint in the twos. There's no doubt he'll be back and establishing his place in our side in years to come.

I hope the boys can hold on!

It's all North Ballarat at nine minutes into the last, but they're only scoring points. The margin has narrowed to seven points but one has to wonder where their next score is coming from.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Goal to the Roosters. They have their tails up and are all over this game.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

North Ballarat 9.12.66 to 9.7.61 after another goal to the home side.

Casey look tired and have a few in the hands of the trainers.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

You guessed it. Another goal to North Ballarat.

Game over IMO.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Margin now 3 goals. Casey's last goal was 5 minutes into the third quarter.

Welcome to the Casey nightmare of 2014!!!

[KC from Casey 7,117]

A score at last - a point to Troy Davis.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

Final score: North Ballarat 11.17.83 defeated Casey Scorpions 9.9.63 - a pathetic final half by an admittedly young side which simply crumbled under pressure. They simply didn't come out to play after half time.

Fairly embarassing effort all season long really. Same story every single week.
