Casey's one-time Moore Park teammate and now Fury' football operations manager Robbie Middleby has revealed that talks are at an advanced stage.

''I'm working overtime to get the deal done,'' Middleby told the Townsville Bulletin.

Casey would provide the club with plenty of pace down the right flank although it remains unclear who he will have to impress to gain selection.

Fury are yet to choose their new coach although former Brisbane Roar defender Stuart McLaren was recently unveiled as the club's assistant coach.
