I have heard from a source that Jack Watts has an infection. I won't go into details however this infection is not serious, but is taking a while to heal. Therefor not training with main group. Should be ready to resume by their first training session early next year.

you have remember - this is the season to be silly. i also heard that Tom Scully had kissed a girl who had glandular fever. I'd be far more concerned if i heard that someone had ruptured his knee - eg: Andy ottens and David rodan in SA.

Watts injured? How can our football department stand by as one of our brightest prospects' career is derailed by injury?

This surely calls for a full scale review of the club's injury management practices!!

Personally, I'm sick of this club accepting mediocrity.

:lol::lol::lol:

Too much post-VCE partying for young Jack!

Actually, during a particularly competitive game of table tennis, Jack managed to slice off his right leg. This is not expected to disrupt his preseason, though BB will need to adjust his running style. Jack's only comment was "it's just a flesh wound".

The title of this thread makes my gut churn. Infection? of what? I hope youre right about it not being serious. Ive been concerned to hear he hasnt been training. Was hoping someone might know what is up.

Heard he's been doing really heavy gym work to bulk up for 2010 so would be doing a bit less of other stuff to compensate.

Have a friend who tried the goji berries. She had the constant runs, which stopped after she stopped eating them, guess they don't agree with everybody!

I used to eat them a bit in London a couple of years ago, but haven't seen them here, though its not like I looked.

They did make me feel pretty good, but weren't cheap and tasted like what I imagine to be dry dog food.

Geesus :lol:

Is she a vegetarian? The bit of extra fibre may have got her!

Dont know what you were eating. :blink:

They taste like beautiful sweet cherries. Like nice sultanas..

Better than any piece of lab made sugar-infested lolly you buy at the store and the healthiest food on earth.

But yeah.. a bit expensive.. a $24 1/2 kg bag lasts me a month- but i scoff em. You can get them at any health food store..

Mabbe Jack should be eating Gojis..

(BTW- Acai berries are good too, but i cant afford too lose the weight that goes along with it..)

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
