Early life and state football
Born in Holbrook, New South Wales,[1] Casey was introduced to footy with Auskick.[1] She played for three years with Riverina Lions in the Canberra League, while attending university in Wagga Wagga.[1] She then joined VFLW club, Eastern Devils.[1]
AFL Women's career
After being overlooked in the inaugural AFLW draft,[2] Casey was signed by Collingwood as a free agent.[3] She made her debut in round 1, 2017, in the inaugural AFLW match at IKON Park against Carlton.[4] In her second match of the season, Casey was cited for a high hit with the shoulder on Melbourne player Meg Downie, which caused Downie to lose consciousness. The match review panel set the ban at three matches, but allowed it to become two with an early guilty plea.[5][6] The day following the incident, Casey contacted Downie to apologise.[7] She scored her first goal on 12 March 2017, against Greater Western Sydney.[8]
Collingwood re-signed Casey for the 2018 season during the trade period in May 2017.[9]
In May 2018, Casey was re-signed by Collingwood for the 2019 season.[10]
