KC from Casey

In meeting ATM but will try to update.

First goal of the last to Coburg.

Three Qtr Time 13.12.90 to 5.8.38

Don't say that - you'll start 10 pages of debate about his kicking!

Last two goals of the match to the visitors - either side of the half time break. Casey 10.7.67 to Tigers 4.6.30

What time in the evening?

Half time: Casey Scorpions 10.7.67 to Coburg Tigers 3.5.23

Other side of the ground but it's freezing here. Where's the OB van. I think it's probably a VFL or club recording.

Happy to have BD here doing updates. iPhone power low and meeting someone at ¾ time. Could keep me off the air for a while later.

Casey doing it comfortably by 32 points.

Standard of game not particularly high. Hogan looks the goods up forward.

Casey Scorpions beat fourth placed Werribee by 2 goals but It's a significant victory because it enables the Scorps (7th) to stay in the finals race.

The development league is a good name for what used to be the VFL reserves and both players need time to develop. Westrupp has only played three games to date and will probably remain at this level for the remainder of the season while Barry will be up and down between the seniors and the DL. This is because ATM there is competition for positions and game time at senior level while at DL level he can be used for longer as a wingman and other roles. In other words, he's not quite up to regular VFL level ATM but he's not going backwards either.

MFC.

I've been a fan of his for a while and he's been on the fringe of selection on a few occasions both this year and last. He is always a steady contributor in the backline and is improving his disposal. I think he should get a run in the second half of the season. He had 26 possessions today and controlled the defence.

I'm told the function was a success and Hoggie was very popular but I don't have any numbers.

Thanks for keeping the lid on Hogan mjt. FWIW, I think he's not a bad kick at all and is certainly better than Buddy in terms of accuracy but not distance (yet). Updated in my final score post above.

After the bye it's open to clubs to elevate another rookie. If we do that, then we might give Couch a go - he's been playing well. However, it should be noted that Jimmy Toumpas was taken out of the original named Casey squad and is in the starting 22 for Monday at the G. Hopefully, Jack Viney will return soon after the bye and it won't be necessary to upgrade any more rookies at that stage.Magner and Couch had plenty of the ball today with the former getting 40 touches according to one of the blokes around here. The latter's been named best for Casey today.

Youngster Jarryd Drew, the 23rd player, kicks truly with a free after the siren and the Magpies are beaten by 15 goals!

Best goals and now it's 83 points. This is much better.

Scorpions lead by 12 goals as the game moves into time on I the last.
