Not that it means much at this stage but the win today catapulted Casey to top spot. However, that could change with North Ballarat and Williamstown both playing tomorrow.

Coburg overrunning the Scorps. Late in the game lead 14.10.94 to 12.8.80.

Sam Blease did start the game but went off with shin soreness early in the game. Three quarter time: Casey Reserves 9.8.62 to 7.4.46. Kyle Matthews was discharged from Eppworth Rehab Hospital. He's recovering well and it is hoped he will be back at the club in the near future. Hard to determine his chances of playing this year but he is making good progress and is back on track.

Half Time in the reserves and the Casey seniors have been on the ground for a sighter. Aussie looks like he's bursting out of his skin to play.

The presence of a few AFL listed players did not help a disappointing Scorpions Reserves who folded in a disappointing last half against the Werribee Tigers at Casey Fields today.
