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.

Shattered to lose Ricky for 2010.

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

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
