Just heard a whisper that John Meesen has stress fractures.

Anyone know any more?

Unfortunately, your whispers are often accurate.

If confirmed, PJ, Frank Spencer and Kareem Abdul Jamar (who is due back soon) should just about be able to cover for The Great Meesen.

If true and with Spencer and Jamar out we have no near decent ruckman available this week. Crikey!

As Nasher said, it wouldn't matter if they were all fit, we'd still get smashed in the hit outs. It's a chance for PJ to show his athleticism, and run with Cox. Martin to do the ruckwork in the forward line.

The bloke who rucked for Sandringham a couple of seasons ago...Stefan Martin!

At least Big Cox is my Dreamteam Captain this week.

I was trying to be careful to word it but I should have got a legal disclaimer to go with it so it did not imply or intended to imply your question.

Yes! Jamar to be tested *dances*

Has the injury been confirmed or not, or can the moderator ban the posters for perpetuating an untruth?

Yep, its true. Meesen is out for the rest of the season... possibly the end of his career.

He has to have an ankle reco... the stress fracture is now 3/4 of the way through the bone.

Very sad... just when he was showing form yet another injury puts him back down :(

Yep, its true. Meesen is out for the rest of the season... possibly the end of his career.

:mellow: We unleashed the Meese too soon . . . how were we to know?!?!

Prithee, young pudh Meese, please forgive thee for Lady Luck's dearth, forsooth of what our fervour has wrought.

Just heard a whisper that John Meesen has stress fractures.

Geez, you're lucky mate, some over zealous poster wanted you banned !

:lol:

that better be a stupid rumour insider

that will devastate me! i really rate this kids potential


No rumour... 100% true.

He has been carrying the stress fracture since late last season... hence not playing in the pre season.

He is shattered.

I repeat where is the official confirmation, he is not on injury list?

Phew, dodged a bullet there.

Don't want to run foul of Mr Zealous.

Will stop revealing the true facts, and will start making up stupid rumours instead.

He did a full pre season, so that is tripe for a start, and you cant play with a stress fracture for so long, it gets too sore, ask Colin Garland or Mathew Egan.....especially when you carrying 100Kgs on it...

Poor guy if true.

Though he definitely played pre season, I remember watching him at Vi$y Park

    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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
