I actually got the feeling someone thought they were being clever and funny with the use of Kevin Sheedy's initials.

I may be wrong, but even the use of capitals, as it was written "Knee Soreness".

We'll surely know by Friday.

Dane Swan is out with 'Korked Shoulder'

IF he has "knee soreness" it is probably best he does not play.

It is only 11th Feb. on Friday, a long way from September!

As well it gives another spot for someone else to show their wares.

WE know Tom can cut it at senior level.

How come we are so poor /unlucky with injuries and the Pies so lucky/ good?

Last years they got to the finals with one long term injury and we had double figures.

After a pre Christmas with a full list we now have 4 long term injuries to good players.

I do not get it.

This depresses me more than Scully leaving!

Frawley was/is the only long-term one with an initial 12-week ommission from footy.

Newton and Morton both 6-8 weeks.

Having said this though, it is FAR better the injuries occur now rather than during the season proper!! Morton (and Newton) will miss a MAXIMUM 2 weeks of the 2011 season. Petterd should be fine after tweaking his hamstring in the intra-club game - plenty of time to have recovered.

I'm concerned about Frawley though... and Campbell is a concern also.

Fitzpatrick may take a while to recover.

Not playing (didn't travel).

Could be knee soreness indeed, but wonder if they just wanted to fly under the radar with him till things quieten down. Interview with Trengove today in the HUN, and first question was "will Scully stay".

Let's hope there are a few big stories come out of the games this weekend so we can move on from the Scully "news".

I'd feel more comfortable if he were there with the rest of the team even if injured. Will send a positive message.

I hate to split hairs Deezman but 8 weeks is a long term injury in my view.

Ok he may be available early in the season but if you miss 8 weeks of practice matches and early season games it will take 2 - 4 weeks to get back to where you should have been at the start of the season.

What is wrong with Fitzpatrick?

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form
