Grimes and Jamar

Featured Replies

A lot of nervous Nellies barrack for Melbourne. If he had a bad back injury it wouldn't say 'test'.

And if he misses a game or two it's no biggy.

If he is feeling a 'hot spot' or light stiffness/soreness then it is conceivable he could only miss a week or so but given his history I would have thought that any back related issue is serious for young Jack. Back injuries are always lingering and always need to be treated carefully. I damaged my back playing footy 13 years ago in a manner which I think is similar to Grimes and still feel average after a heavy knock or too many hours at the desk.

 

Well, well, well. Interesting. I wonder if Jurrah will play this week.:P

I agree, the kid has had a pretty big season after a late start due to injury. Smart move to manage him for the rest of the year, we've all seen what he can do, let's make shure he's cherry ripe for next year.

To join Scully in the midfield

I say bring Watts back to find out what real tough football is all about against the swannies, then he will have a real idea of where he needs to get to for the start of next season

I'd give him the three weeks after the Swans game: all in Melbourne and he might play in A win.

Hopefully he puts in a good effort this week.

I see your point, BUT if all those games are against teams "tanking" for better draft positions and he just cruises through and picks up a win somewhere along the road he maybe fooled into this false sense that this game is cruisy, but against the swans he is no chance to have that situation put to him

From my limited encounters with Jack and from what I've seen and heard, this isn't something to worry about.

Nothing wrong with an 18 year old getting a feel of the footy in the big time after a somewhat turbulent year.

Hmmm, surely Davey must have a bit of general soreness by now. Been runnin` all over the place! By the way, anyone else notice he started in the forward line against the cats, where the ball barely made it with that howling wind! I like the way DB is thinkin!

For a us to win a game, no offence to the boys down at the Junction, the other team would have to be awful and/or 'cruising' as WC were and certainly PA were: a great quote from Cometti during the PA game when the TV showed Williams in the box - "There is Mark Williams looking tranquil, and his team looking tranquilised."

The Swans will beat us, or they will 'cruise' and lose...

That rhymed, I didn't mean for that to ryhme...

Clear as a summers day, the way this club is intending to finish the year

Freo, Richmond and the kangas are all awful!!

Freo, Richmond and the kangas are all awful!!

This is what im hoping, both rawlings and crocker will be weanting a win due to there reputation and coaching future.

And as for freo well i got nothin.....lol maybe they will try to break there travel problem.

F$%^.

Flying up to Canberra for the game, would've loved to see my boy in full flight.

And my supercoach is ruined!

I too am going to canberra but I couldn't be happier finally a bit of list management. He is in my supercoach aswell but got Cheney on the bench so I hope he comes in.

Think of the ruck duals PJ V MIKE PIKE hold onto your hats !!!!!

Freo, Richmond and the kangas are all awful!!

Which is why we should be as young as we can be.

NM at the worst stadium in the world should be able to account for us. IF they are switched on.

Richmond on August 2nd is the biggest game the MFC has played since Freo 2006.

And Freo...

Well we, hopefully, will play a switched on Richmond and NM.


Give Grimey a break for the rest of the year?

He's had a really great crack at the big time and has shone, so if we're still a bit iffy about how his back will hold up (we don't want anything lingering) i'm all for him having an extended off-season, if it means an uninterrupted pre-season.

Ins

Mckensie

Valenti

Spencer

Watts

Newton

Cheney

Outs

Whoever has the ability to win a game off there own back, na just kidding, outs should be anyone who is sore

whats the bet spencer will play instead of PJ

No chance. PJ's dominated the ruck for three weeks now at Casey and will surely come in if Jamar's injured. Spencer played his 1st game back in the VFL ressies just last week. No way they'd risk Spencer, regardless of tanking or not. It's just poor team management.


Grimes is a concern. His back again?

He copped a fairly heavy knock before half time on the weekend from Ablett (or maybe Chapman) in the back pocket and was on all fours for a while, then started the 2nd half on the bench, so I reckon he copped a corky in his back or something and just came up a bit stiff

If he has one little inkling of a sore back, I want the club to look after him. Put him in cotton wool for the start of the pre-season. This kid is as valuable as any player at the club right now. (well, you can build cases for Jurrah & Watts :lol: ). So if his back is sore - and we know he has had back problems earlier this season - send him to the paddock for a spell.

 

DO people seriously think spencer will come straight into the side? IT was his first game back for casey 2's on saturday. He is at least 3-4 weeks off. Will only play casey 1s now jamar is out!

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    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.
