Ace wingman Nick Scanlon has joined the Casey Scorpions for season 2009.

Scanlon who many MNPFL football follows describe ‘as one of the most exciting players in the league’ is excited about the opportunity to play elite football. “ I think the time was right to have a crack at VFL level, I have had a lot of team success over the past three years” Scanlon said.

Scanlon who has been an integral member of Narre’s three premierships in 2006-08, bring speed and goal kicking ability to the scorpions midfield. Scanlon was runner up in Narre’s Best and Fairest in 2008 as well as a top four finish in 2007.

In 2006 Scanlon was the youngest member of Narre’s flag still being eligible for the under 18’s final campaign. 2008 was by far Nick’s most consistent year after he was and was close to best on ground in 2008 grand final. Scanlon’s honors include vice captain of the Victorian Football Country Football League in 2007 as well as finishing fourth in the League Best and Fairest.

The Scorpions are thrilled to gain Nick’s services.
