Just listening to the Freo game. Barlow has done his knee.

Poor bugger and poor supercoach team. Hopefully it ends up being OK.

They are now saying broken leg. Sad to see!

He hasn't done his knee, I don't think anyway. Though there's a good chance he's injured much of his leg.

Pretty sure it's broken, absolutely horrific to watch.

Poor kid, I wish him a speedy recovery.

No he broke his leg in a terrible collision with a team mate! He tried too stand up and the bottom of his leg gave way very sickening just watched it live

Ya beat me to it!

Word of warning, it was Nathan Brown-esque, but didnt stay out of place..

THEN he tried to stand up on it - and it went sideways again!! That was ugly - but it was like he was in no pain what-so-ever!!

Interesting highlight if you have the stomach for it..

EDIT: yeah, forget supercoach until the finals at least, it was pretty bad..

although it looked a clean break. (just below the kneecap)

I absolutely hate seeing this stuff happening to any afl player. This will hurt a career (hoping it doesnt) that was looking quite promising. Just like Nathan Brown when he broke his leg under Wheelan (i think), just not the same after recovery.

I hope he make a quick and proper recovery.

You gotta feel sorry for Barlow. He made the greatest of transitions into the AFL, Freo surprising everyone and continuing their fantastic run (who'd have thought at the start of the year). He was in Brownlow medal form too, seeing there only seems to be Sandilands who would take votes off him for their games.

Outside of MFC players, this one hurt more than any I've seen. The sound at the ground was incredible. They couldn't have been more up and about the supporters, then there was this huge moan when he tried to put weight on it. Then the rest of the game was just a murmurs in comparison to the 3rd quarter.

Jeez footy's a cruel game.

Horrific, and very unlucky.

You hate to see this as a football fan, regardless of who you follow.

I hope Barlow can heal and regain some of this years sterling form for the dockers next season.

From fairy tale to season over in an instant. I know he's not the first player to get a bad injury, but this one would hurt more than most emotionally. Can't help but feel for the bloke.

A really good bloke too. Spoke to him a couple of times when he was playing in the VFL.

I cant imagine how Palmer would be feeling. A complete lack of talk and awareness from him in that situation. Damn unlucky for Michael.

I'd like to send my best wishes to Michael Barlow & his loved ones after this horror accident.

I wish him well & a full recovery having had a similar break from a motorcycle accident years back.

Know what you mean, when you cleanly break a bone, it's pretty nasty...takes a while to heal too

One of the few times I've actually cared about a player from another team being injured (Tom Longeran and his kidney was another one).

Michael Voss broke his leg early on in his career and we all know how his career ended up so hopefully Barlow comes out of this OK.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
