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.

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.

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.

HA!

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.

Interesting. My apologies if I got this one wrong.

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

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 Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    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
