I think the list is down to its lowest level in 3 years.

Sam Blease (leg) indefinite

Colin Garland (foot) indefinite

Rhys Healey (quad) 1 - 2 weeks

John Meesen (foot) indefinite

Austin Wonaesmirri (knee) 4 - 6 weeks

There's always a 426 isn't there?

    You can probably add Simon Buckley who wasn't selected in any Casey team after missing last week.

    Not sure why they dont come clean with Buckley. He was struggling preseason with groin related issues and is now missing again with a problem in the same area.

    It is shocking news for Wona and his development curve, his season is almost shot.

    Fair to say he has a bad case of the old Melbourne OP??

    I saw Buckley outside the 'G before last weeks game against the Hawks and he confirmed he's struggling with OP. I read an interview with Wona that said he's revised his goals for the year and hopes to play 5 games for the Demons.

    As a complete aside (and apologies for it) but couldn't help myself while we're on injury lists - Shoab Aktar reported to beon the Pakistani injury list and subsequently MIA for a GENITAL INFECTION :lol:

    surely they could have come up with some kind of white lie

    Has Aussie injured his hamstring or lost it?

    thanks for that; it's great to get that info about Wona and Buckley.

    I'm so sorry for Buckley because I wanted to see him get games this year more than any other player,

    just to get more feel for the game and hopefully bring his particular skills into our game.

    From what I'm reading and hearing, Wona's looking at 2010 with another great pre-season under his belt. Much like this year unfortunately. But bad luck happens.

    He may be lucky to get a couple of games towards the end of the season but in the interests of 'list management', why bother? Then again, he'll be as rusty as all hell.

    So aside from 3 season-enders, we've only got 2 official injuries? Must be the lowest in years. (though I'm sure Buckley's injured)

    Wonnaeamirri might as well be listed as 'indefinite' if they're going to put 4-6 against his name.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
