@#$*!

I guess it's for the best, I believe Egan started with a stress fracture in the navicular bone.

that sux.


Brutal Game Australian Footy. Sometimes we all forget that Aspect. Every Game & Player is an ongoing Gamble.

Best wishes for a fast & Full Recovery Colin. You are a Big Part of our Future,

Argh. Damn it. That's bad. Let's just hope they fix it first time and this doesn't become a recurring problem.

On the flipside, that means Valenti must be in line for a promotion to the senior list.

Already discussed this in another thread, don't think they will promote Valenti, unless one of the midfielders suddenly falls over too similar to others, think they will bank the LTI for Spencer for if and when Jamar comes back.....or until Rd11 then if another eight weeks left promote a rookie and Spencer at same time........other rookies including Zomer still a bit raw, especitally if you are not going to play them...although McKenzie sounds like a bit of a wildcard so they could left field and go with him...

Told you I wasn't lying. Shitful news I am fairly upset as I know col is so hopefully one of our younger players can step up.

You were spot on.

Shocking news.

Yeah, thanks for the info. You don't know who I am, but I know who you are. You are one of the guys that makes this forum what it is. Even if that means delivering the "shitful news."

And on the bright side, at least he'll return to a four month older and better team.

This is real shame but we know he can play and will be a good defender for us. On the positive we will get to see Martin/Frawley/Rivers fill the three key defender roles on hopefully with the first two develope and show something like Garland did.

Soon they'll have to play Jack Watts, there aren't many more players to choose from.


I'm really disappointed.

With Rivers, Warnock and Martin down the backline, I was hoping that Colin Garland could be released to be converted into a tall forward. He has the mobility and ball-handling, plus the attacking creativity.

I still hope for that, but now it's on the backburner for months.

Marking forwards need to be able to keep their head up with the pack approaching from behind. Garland has this quality.

We need Zomer or no.29 to show the sort of improvement that Cheney has, to provide the marking strength up forward that we lack so badly.

I was surprised how well Ricky Petterd led and held his marks last Sunday, I'd never have picked him as a leading forward.

Probably the ability to time your lead and hold on to the ball at pace is as important as taking contested marks. Contested marks in the forward 50 must only account for a small proportion of goals ,compared to goals from marks by leading forwards.

:( not good news at all but at least we seemed to catch on it before it could of been worse.

He will be back :)

Soon they'll have to play Jack Watts, there aren't many more players to choose from.

a neighbour who had Lunch with Brad Miller a couple of days ago was told there's a good chance that Jack Watts will play in around 4-6 Weeks. He is apparently doing weight Training Before school & is raring to go. That's all i know.

Butcher & Scully

Mulder??


just on the channel 10 news sports preview ... "the demons lose one of their rising stars for the REST OF THE SEASON".

Bloody hell. cant take a trick with our defenders. this is really upsetting news. hopefully all goes well for him in his recovery.

would really like grimes back asap now.

Told you I wasn't lying. Shitful news I am fairly upset as I know col is so hopefully one of our younger players can step up.

Maybe he can develope his kicking on his alternate foot when during recovery?

Butcher & Scully

My thoughts exactly. Gar;and was our worst threat when it comes to signing these two... :)

But seriously folks, I'm stunned the club has admitted the four months. Usually they say 8+ weeks or something, and just shrug their shoulders when the fans start wondering where he is.

It's a real set-back. These are REALLY important years for our defence to figure each other out, and that's the biggest loss right there. But then we have to consider Warnock, Martin and Frawley will get the games Garland won't. Also let's not forget Rivers, who needs games under his belt quick-smart.

Oh. And Valenti slots back in until Jamar comes back. That's a good thing there too.

 
Butcher & Scully

bloody hell they'd be handy

be nice to have someone to take a contested mark up forward

After watching Colin take major strides in his career last year, he was one player i was looking forward to seeing if he could continue his improvement this year. Such a shame.

I hope the rest of the team takes notice and makes the most of every game they play this year, cause it can end quick.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
