    He needs to get on the park soon

    two years with little return will not be good.

    I get a faint Tilbrook smell here!

    Looks Good but all muscle and not much action.

    Hope to god he plays somewhere in the next few weeks.

    I was so proud of myself for figuring out who was missing...

    Anyone have any ideas why McKenzie is out?

    Probably a bit early to be writing off his 2nd year in the 2nd week of February...

    Fitzpatrick ??

    Fitzpatrick is injured. He was on crutches on the sidelines at the I/C game.

    What's the story with Jones? Is he just being rested?

  • Quote

    Liked this from the AFL web site:

    "AN UNDER-STRENGTH Melbourne side will kick off round one of the NAB Cup with five of its best 22 sidelined.

    Key players James Frawley (pectoral), Michael Newton (broken wrist) and Ricky Petterd (hamstring) are all injured, while Nathan Jones (soreness) and Mathew Warnock will also miss the round-robin clash against Adelaide and Port Adelaide."

    From the Melbourne website in the article naming the squad

    "Tom Scully (knee soreness) has been named in the initial squad, but is under an injury cloud. Robert Campbell (achilles), Jack Fitzpatrick (foot), James Frawley (pectoral muscle), Nathan Jones (back soreness), Jordie McKenzie (groin soreness), Michael Newton (wrist), Ricky Petterd (hamstring) and Matthew Warnock (ankle) will miss through injury."

    Geez that's harsh. Tilbrook cost us a fortune and was supposed to be a superstar.

    Tapscott's a kid.

    ID I don't think I was writing him off.

    It is just disappointing that he is not being involved in practise matches etc

    after a bad year with injuries.

    Lots of good comments about him when he was drafted and so far he has been injured most of the time

    since arriving.

    I just hope he is not all "looks" and we get to see him play somewhere in the next few weeks.

    And he needs to get on the park soon!

    Because another year like last year would not be be good for his future.

    The competition is littered with players who would have been great if they were not constantly injured.

    I'm really looking forward to seeing Howe and Sammy Blease, I have previously posted Sammy probably wouldn't make it. I hope this Friday I am shot down in a sceaming heap. BTW LOOK OUT I SEE A JURRAHCAINE COMING !!!

  • Quote

    The injuries have given seven players the opportunity to make their debuts in senior AFL company. 

    Not all of these players will represent the club on Friday night but a few will:-

    Sam Blease, Lucas Cook, Michael Evans, Jeremy Howe, Cameron Johnston, Tom McDonald and Daniel Nicholson.

    That's the exciting thing about Friday night. We can worry about injuries when the season starts.

    Cale Morton out for 6-8 weeks with finger tendon injury.

    I got a laugh outta this one too Maurie. Juice has arrived...pretty high raps for a rookie.

    no it's true. Shouldn't be seeing him and Frawley til about round 3 but who knows

    WJ has nailed it. The NAB cup is all about getting some glimpses of the unknown players and we will have a feast in this regard on Friday

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.
