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.

That's arguably true if he was available too. :lol:

That said, I'll be disappointed if true. Just when it looks like there's a very slim hope he could actually be able to play the game.

Is spencer injured also?

If all this is true and Jamar doesn't return soon who will ruck for us?

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.

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.

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 :(

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.

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.

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

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
