AFL Victoria has given Melbourne's debt-riddled affiliate Casey Scorpions the all-clear to play on in the VFL.
Scorpions president David Dillon was told at 2pm today that the club could go on next season.
But it remains unclear if its troubled alignment with Melbourne will continue.
The Herald Sun revealed this week the Dees VFL side was fighting for survival, with AFL Victoria top-brass Peter Jackson, Grant Williams and John Hook holding crisis talks with Casey officials last Wednesday night to discuss the club's precarious financial position.
The Scorpions have been left with a heavy debt over the collapse of plans for a social club at Casey Fields.
In 2010 the club bought the rights to 40 poker machines at a cost of $1.2 million, but the development has hit the rocks.
Casey transferred the pokies licences earlier this year, incurring losses, but it has told AFL Victoria its debts are manageable.
The club presented a business plan to AFL Victoria officials last Wednesday, outlining how it could service debts and cover operating costs.
Although most players have not been paid for the 2012 season, Casey insists it has money set aside for them.
