INJURY LIST - ROUND 11


alpha33

Recommended Posts

Sam Blease (leg) indefinite

Simon Buckley (groin) 4-6 weeks

Colin Garland (foot) indefinite

Rhys Healey (quad) 1 week

James McDonald (knee) test

John Meesen (foot) indefinite

Austin Wonaeamirri (knee) 3-5 weeks

As usual, we have a player who was injured at the weekend but not accounted for on the official injury list. Jake Spencer was injured in the first five minutes at Casey and the injury could be anything because I've read about three different diagnoses.

Simon Buckley is our current 426 man.

He is in massive trouble IMO.

Will be lucky to keep his spot on the list next year.

Unfortunate, but you may be right, depending on contract status.

I love the way he takes the game on with his blistering pace, but, if he does have the dreaded OP, which has been suggested, then his power thru the legs will be significantly diminished, thus affecting his speed and depth of kicking. These are his 2 weapons, especially his pace, and without it, i'm not sure he brings much else to the team. Interesting times ahead for Bucks.

Growing up a passionate Melbourne supporter, i know he'll be completely shattered if he is delisted at season end, so for his sake i hope he can get up and play some good footy later in the year.

Agree time is running out, and if we are still on track for a priority pick bucks could be a little unlucky at the end of the year. wheatly is the biggest concern is he fully fit? I thought he may have still been injured

Someone told me Dean Bailey said on radio last night that Wonna is 3 weeks away from resuming.

Sucha disappointing season for wonna. He was flying preseason and looked so fit and trimmed down. Hopefully he can get back for a few games at seasons end to get him fired up again for another hard preseason.

Wheatley has played the last 2 weeks for Casey Reserves, building up his game time to 80% last week. You'd think he'd step up to Seniors at Casey this week, and even though last year was his best for quite a while, you'd think this year may well be his last on our list unless he very quickly turns things around (contract status notwithstanding)...

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
