Hannan looks to be the emergency for tomorrow, Stretch, hunt and Weiderman all warming up.

Brand new stand that has just been finished, looks great and the function room looks great with a good view over the ground. Also best coaches boxes in the VFL by far. turning out to be a good night for footy. No wind and the ground has dried out well, should be a good game

There is actually a curtain raiser for today’s game starting at 11:05am, u18 academy Vs Kangaroos VFL. There is almost on no info on this game on the internet so they are keeping it low key but a good chance to see the top 30 players run around the G against AFL listed players. Looking forward to seeing some of the highly touted SA boys.

Last quarter was shortened to only 20 minutes, good move as both teams looked stuffed.

Casey wasted some opportunities but standard of the game is dropping a bit, very hot conditions.

Harmes, Tyson, Jetta all playing and are dominating. Casey have 3 players on the bench who haven't come on so I am expecting some players won't play the second half. About 10 or so listed players playing.

Casey Dominating play but didn't make the most of the wind in the first qtr but a flurry goals late in the second qtr as well as a goal on the siren means Casey actually won the second qtr into the breeze. Wind is very strong which is affecting the quality of the game.

I have high hopes for Joel after watching a lot of Casey this year, if all goes right in the preseason I can see him getting an opportunity early next year . He has struggled with injury and was load managed early on but I have been extremely impressed by his development. He has so many AFL qualities to his game, clean hands, quick, strong over the ball and has some real X factor as well. Thinking about him and Hunt on the same half back line would be a sight to see with them both up and going.
