Now hullett matches it with another beauty 

Yet to see Hullett live. Very keen to do so.

Casey 34 points up and will win comfortably despite sandy playing ok against the wind. 

 

Newton ok ok and back on ground.

Correction it was Newton who missed the goal before and not Smith. Newton has a reasonable 2nd half also. 35 points to Casey

We are building some real depth at casey, good to see.

sandy not a bad side either.

scorps should finish right up the pointy end this year.

To whet your appetite......and if he keeps developing as he is........and comparisons which we all hate.......Jack Darling.......had the opportunity to spend half an hour with him a couple of weeks ago, absolutely stoked to be on an AFL list, regards it as a privilege, determined to give it absolutely everything.....thinks the development he is getting from the coaches is first class

Anb hands in close are a thing of beauty. Tackles hard too.

i know it is hard to break into seniors midfield at the moment, but he surely must be close. Had the ball on a string today.

Thanks Saty. You get an idea of what someone's like in your mind and it's always a little different. I've heard the Darling comparison. Just looked at an interview and get the impression he's a tough hombre.

Same thing said by Weeds family so it was written on here last week.

Finally we have a REAL footy club by the sound of it. Roos might get most of the plaudits, but our entire development team need a pat on the back. (Even if we dont win tomorrow)

Peter Jackson

Turnover and Dawes spots up weed who is now getting reward for effort.

Credit to dawesy, as despite competing for the same spot, looks like he has really taken the young weed under his wing.

They've worked well together today.

That's true, but Roos set the whole thing in motion and maybe we wouldn't have attracted some of these guys if he wasn't there.

I give him credit for turning us into a football club again, first time for decades.

 

 

Casey coasting ahead by 42 points after Weideman's second. This kid can play.

And don't underestimate the importance of selling a great product to the family. Remember, these boys are generally still incredibly influenced by mum and dad. Hopefully not in a 'this fish is overpriced, let's punch on' Damir Dokic way, but in a way that allows us to retain this impressive crop.

Zebras get one back but it's too late 132 - 96.

I've enjoyed my first Casey game for the year. All were impressive and they future of Melbourne is bright with the young players we have. Impressed with Dawes, Terlich, Newton, Trengove and ANB.  Can't wait for tomorrow although I can't go as son has his own football game.  Casey will win by about 5 goals. Battery now nearly dead

Peter Jackson got Roos in and said 'what/who do you need", and then ensured he got it

As you all know I speak to the players quite often, all have said, it is a team now, there are no stars, you get a role, you play it, you play it consistently well, you stay in the team, if you can't crack a spot in the position you normally play, you can have a crack at another position at Casey, see how you go, see if you can get in the team that way.......Michie.............the coaches will help you have a crack at the other spot......the ball is very much in the players hands.....you make the effort you get rewarded

As for Neal Bullen, had a bit of an interrupted pre season and Clayton Oliver jumped him, just has to bide his time, but we are going to have a battle hardened replacement who is in top form should we need him

Awesome that the twos are flying and there's good players in good form ready to come in.

Final siren sounds after Sandy gets a late consolation goal.

Bring on Box Hill next week in the big one.

Thanks for the updates!

We are on the road to being a successful club on field, being a destination club, successful financially and re earning the respect of the AFL football community. 

It so heartening for all the long suffering loyal fans.

Always appreciated KC.

Should Angus Brayshaw has 4-5 weeks off match footy then wear a Helmut. 

First his knee sidelined him for 5 weeks.

Now 3 concussions in 3 games over 5 weeks.
