Grimes does his Hammy... Again.

Second quarter of the Casey game today, and Grimes has pulled his hamstring again. You'd think unless we go deep into finals, that will be his year.

    LOL! Poor Grimesy. Can't take a trick that bloke! It's laughable because it's just so unlucky for the poor guy.

    Recurring hamstring injuries for a young player who relies on pace... Some of the more negative news for the year.

    like aaron davey in his second year

    I think he kind of does one every year doesn't he? I've noticed he's lost a yard or two since those days...

    He is ok.

    As reported by KC from Casey in the Casey thread... Grimes was on the bench for all of the 2nd quarter after trainers worked on his hamstrings.

    He is not ok...

    KC from casey also stated he doesnt know one way or the other, could be a precaution

    Cmon guys, can we get the facts right here?

    As far as I would gather if 'they', the trainers spent a qtr working on his hammy then he most likely has not done the hammy again, otherwise why would they bother working on it? It would be iced and he would be done.

    Either way.... it looks like his hammy's are still fragile - won't be seeing him again this year one could say.

    Grimes in tracksuit, definitely favouring a leg.

    Big turn out of players. Trenners, chip, petterd, judy, spence, tapscott, gawn and mckenzie. Plus coach and tim Harrington

    If of interest spoke to garland who said Bruce will go to hodge and gawn said his knee will be fine, pulled up well

    If it helps any, my source is a pretty damn good one... But in his words he said Grimes had "re-done" his hamstring. Take from that what you will, be it a strain or a pull blown tear... who knows?

    Done for the year.

    Hoping for a strong recovery so he can put in a full preseason.

    :(

    What a joke. Poor kid spends 6 weeks on the sidelines then pulls is again straight away.

    This news both sucks and blows.

    Jack may be right to play in China in October.

    So is anything in this thread correct?

    I like to think Demonlanders get it right more often than the HUN, who on the Casey/Bullants reports: Melbourne-listed Cale Morton pressed his claims for a recall to the Demons, while Jack Grimes got through his return game unscathed.

    The HUN got it terribly wrong.

    I was at the game on Saturday and spoke to Jack, he said he 'tweaked' the hammy and it was 'better' if he sat the rest of the game out.

    Should I be surprised?

    Interesting. My apologies if I got this one wrong.

    It's pretty bad news, but I wouldn't say Grimesy relies on his pace.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
