At its lowest level for some time ...

MELBOURNE

  • Daniel Bell (concussion) test
  • Colin Garland (foot) indefinite
  • Brad Green (broken jaw) 3-5 weeks
  • Mark Jamar (foot) 2 weeks
  • Paul Wheatley (quadriceps tear) 3 weeks

BUT (as usual) it doesn't mention a few players who missed last week through injury:

  • Liam Jurrah
  • Jake Spencer
  • James Strauss

Brad Green must of been given some kind of secret potient by Jimmy! He's gone from 6-8 to 3-5 in a blink of an eye!

How many different injuries does Daniel Bell have? didn't he have a broken thumb, and something else as well?

Came back last week after a broken thumb, and obviously suffered a concussion during the match.

That boy cannot get a break... that doesn't involve bones.

Hopefully he gets up this week and goes another round at Casey. If nothing else, it puts pressure on the players getting a game in the seniors, which is always a good thing.

The 'Colin Garland- Indefinite' line makes me sick to my stomach every time I see it! :(

Is Simon Buckley ready to play yet? Can't wait to see him bursting through the lines off half-back again.

These players didnt miss through injury.

Jurrah is not ready

Spencer missed because Meesen is playing decent football.

Not sure about Strauss though.

Neither Jurrah or Strauss were named at Casey last week in seniors or reserves, so maybe thats what the OP was getting at.

It's an interesting one isn't it, as nothing has been mentioned, hopefully it's just part of his development to give his body a week off.

Paul Wheatley (quadriceps tear) 3 weeks......

What is going on with Wheatley. He was listed as 4 weeks away in round 1. 4 weeks later and he is still supposedly 3 weeks away from being right?

He was one of our best players last year and we sorely miss him.

In a backline that is starting to look defensively very solid, but limited in terms of creative play, skill and rebound potential(bartram, warnock, frawley and martin all have at best questionable kicking skills), wheatley's long runs and good disposal would be a real boost to our side.

I fail to see the humour in that monty.......if in fact it was a joke. There is already alot of p****d off people with respect to what's happened to Blease.

No Joke, same source that was wrong about the valenti elivation, They were right about the PW LTI. I take big offence to what has happened by being sensered. Why is the blease post not blocked. Lift your game admin!

Then take offense, that's your choice.

If anybody posts about a players serious injury without knowing it to be true then they will be banned if it is subsequently proven to be wrong. That's the responsibility of posting.

Just for the record we have banned posters for a year when they have done similar things. Think yourself lucky.

not that any of these injuries are soft tissue but I would be very happy to see the back of boban babechick (or however you spell it). The rumours were that Hawthorn were pleased to get rid of him and I cannot see anything amazing he has done with the demons. Throughout his time we have had a long injury list which we cannot afford to have in the next few years when we start looking to play in finals.

It may not have come to your attention but Bodhan is no longer on the conditioning or medical team. The injuries this year are nothing to do with him.

He is still named on the demons website, (Bohdan Babijczuk – Athletic Development Coach)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
