Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Nervous anticipation upon seeing the thread title. Relief upon reading the news. Guilt upon feeling relief. Finally arrive at sympathy for the player involved.

He'll play round 5, but obviously Jones doesn't want to discuss the health of his Father, which is obviously a concern to Jesse. That's the extent that needs to be read into it.

Their bye is this weekend, so I guess if that is read to be true he could be back for the game v Essendon on 22/07 ?

This bit though...

“Gus is essentially training with the main group [and having] full contact. We’re hoping that he’s a chance for the VFL game after their bye this weekend.  It really comes down to Gus and how he’s feeling about his footy, but all things are pointing to a positive outcome"

... to me says the problem is more with Brayshaws mental state than anything. If he still has the confidence to get in there and stick his head over the ball again.. etc ?

I think he is "apprehensive" about taking the field again.  I don't think the term was harsh, instead accurate.
 
Next time I'll preface my remarks for the sensitive.
 
gun-shy
adjective
adjective: gunshy
  1. (especially of a hunting dog) alarmed at the firing of a gun.
    • (of a person) nervous and apprehensive.
      "she's still gun-shy about new relationships"
       

I think this is outrageous. You are virtually accusing him of cowardice. It does nothing to help Gus in his recovery and certainly stirs up a hornet's nest when we should all be doing everything possible to support the club it its recovery to full fitness. I'm sure you would be the first to criticise if we missed the finals through poor morale in the latter stages of the season.

Gus is the opposite. He is desperately keen to get back on the park

How about if ProDee agrees to exchange 'gun-shy' for 'tentative' or 'hesitant', and you can use 'unfair' in place of 'outrageous', and we can prevent this forum from sounding like Hansard or the Herald Sun comments section?

How that can be construed as accusing him of cowardice is beyond me. It's perfectly understandable that Gus would be concerned about repeat incidents that could endanger his continued career as a footballer, and as such he may well be hesitant about taking the field. Gun-shy is just another term for hesitant.

With our injuries to key players we actually fielded a less experienced team than Carlton on the weekend.

Games: Carlton (1903) v Melbourne (1644)

Goals: Carlton (1114) v Melbourne (1039)

Average age: Carlton (24 years, 233 days) v Melbourne (24 years, 180 days)

Doesn't stop some in the media, and CFC fans, from lauding their brave young side for their performance against our mature experienced side.

I interpreted it the same way as Dees2014 initially because of all the previous ways I'd heard the term used 'gun-shy' in the past, and because ProDee offered no other context or explanation whatsoever other than a one-liner.  I know I wasn't the only one.  English language and our interpretation of what people say is shaped by our experience, generally, not by whipping out a dictionary every time. I thought his point was unclear.

I'm surprised Dees2014 still took that view after ProDee went to pains to explain that it wasn't his implication, though.

So who will be back first? 

Watts or Viney?

Salem or Brayshaw?

From what I saw on the footy show a short time ago, I'd say Viney will play next week if he has his way. He moved well during the handball competition, not that you can go by that though.

You wouldn't think he was on crutches only two days ago if you saw that.

The revolving door continues. Dean Kent out injured indefinitely and Bernie Vince suspended for two matches. A few "tests" but no doubt the conservative approach will continue and only Dom Tyson and Jack Watts will get a guernsey. My guess is Salem & Viney wait one more week at least. 

Melbourne injury list: round 18

Angus Brayshaw (concussion) – available
Lochie Filipovic (hip flexor) – 1-2 weeks
Colin Garland (knee) – season
Nathan Jones (quadriceps) – 1-2 weeks
Dean Kent (shoulder) – indefinite
Pat McKenna (hamstring) – season
Christian Salem (hamstring) – test
Tim Smith (navicular bone) – season
Dom Tyson (knee) – test
Aaron vandenBerg (heel) – season

So being an optimist we could have a more or less full squad to pick from as early as next week barring Bernie...thats not too bad really. It just depends how they come back and how long till the match fitness fully kicks in for the whole team. Feels like its taken forever....i guess in some ways it has..

If you were truly OCD, you would have placed McKenna and Garland in alphabetical order as you've done with everyone else when their anticipated length of time out is the same.

Watts will be tbe key in. Having him out has really demonstrated how critical he is to our side, particularly his composure and delivery of rhe ball indide 50.

I also suspect hoges will love having him back, as much for rheir obvious bond as the improved delivery he'll get.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you his observations from this morning's Captain's Run including some hints at the changes for our ANZAC Eve clash against the Tigers.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
