CaseyCardinia snapshot

The happiest footballer in the CaseyCardinia League on Saturday was without doubt former Pakenham coach Travis Murphy.
‘Murph’ was back in the thick of the action for the first time this year, after snapping an Achilles tendon in a practice match in March.
While obviously rusty, his steadiness and leadership in defence was a big plus for the Lions as they fought to maintain their position in the top five.
