Terrible news.

Wonna, Jurrah, Petterd.

Every time we have a forward that shows something we lose them for a season.

Thats really sad news. So much to like about ricky, good over head, great on the ground, has a little bit of mongrel about him and you can tell he loves to be involved in the play, sounds silly i know, but he looks like he wants to be in every contest, and that is infectious.

Someone else can now shoulder (pun intended) the fwd line responsability.

Shattered, another season of development wasted. Looked really promising. I like players who love a contest and ricky is one of those.

That's our third shoulder injury this year. Jeepers.

Maybe Bohdan's to blame.

All the best to Ricky in his recovery though. But I don't think he'll make it back by the end of the year, so he'll be set on Round 1.

Shattering news, he's setting himself up nicely to become one of the most dangerous forwards in the comp in the coming years.

All the best in your recovery Ricky and please say with Melbourne at seasons end.

I'm getting a dejavu feeling, Scott Thompson 2004 with his foot injury when he was having his breakout year, got injured and never played for Melbourne again.

He stated a couple of weeks ago that he was going to wait until the end of the year to sign a contract.

Will be interesting to see what he does over the next 4 months in regards to this.

I suspect the longer he goes on without signing the likelihood of him heading north is increased.

well a dodgy shoulder might do more for us to keep him than more for Ricky being offered a GC contract.

Or we end up fitting the bill for him to get right only to pizz off after he is right

On one hand, he's done enough to keep his place on the list, and his return will be anticipated greatly.

On the other hand, if he IS on the way to GC, the compensatory pick we would have gotten after 22 rounds of him would have been a lot better than whatever they'd give us now.

If it's the second scenario, we lose. BIG time.

Memo to Number 15 for Melbourne FC: 'Ricky... don't lose that number'. Stay at the Dees next year.

Gday Dedders, thanks for the kind message upon my log in. I am indeed a complete $%^^&&*. Spent way too much time orchestrating your lifetime ban on Ology.

Good result in the end of course. Stay well!!

Shattered to lose Ricky for 2010.

I am really hoping he signs and we get to see him again.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    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
