We are ten rounds into the VFL season and the Casey Scorpions are on top of the ladder with only one loss for the year.

Surprisingly, that's how long it's taken Channel 7 to recognise the Scorpions and televise one of their games but please forgive my cynicism because the game they've picked to show off the boys from Casey involves Collingwood which always rates well and gets more than its share of coverage - Channel 7: Saturday & Sunday coverage

* 23rd player

The Development League team has a bye.

Meanwhile, 19 year old Tom Glen who participated as 23rd player in Casey's last two wins over Box Hill and Collingwood is set to line up with Frankston this week. Don't ask me how or why but apparently Tyler Roos did something similar last year.

Thanks KC, I love your work and I'm very happy with this , I get to see Casey 3 weeks in a row now. This week Vs Woods on 7, live vs B'rat Nth next week and Vs Richmond on 7 the following week. Go Scorps

No Weid!?

JKH another mystery omission. 

No Weeds?

 

Viney in the guts, Oliver in the back pocket and Kennedy on the extended interchange. I think not!

Lumumba?

Joel Smith?

Does anyone know why the forward half lines up differently to the backs on this footy infographic?

Weideman not playing v Collingwood!?

Not mentioned in injury report - seems a strange game to "rest" him from.

His output has dropped just slightly the last couple of weeks.

Likely just decided to rest him based on that. No need to over work him now. He's got 25 senior games to get through next year!

He was rested only a few weeks ago and in between that, there was a bye. If he's being rested, it's a strange move indeed.

Is he possibly playing Monday??

It'll be a bit of a mystery who plays because we won't have to finalise our 22 for Monday until after I think

It will be all done and dusted after training Saturday morning! Those that aren't there are playing for Casey that afternoon!

Brown and Goodyear trained with the VFL team last night

According to the Herald Sun Declan Keilty has been given the job of first minder on Travis Cloke. 

Should be an interesting duel and could help the youngster to achieve his football dream.

I'm looking forward to watching this from the comfort of my couch.

Casey Fields once had a brilliant surface, what's happened?
