Good to see Blease, Howe, Strauss and Cook...but no Tapscott?

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.

Morton- still don't believe he has bulked up

Watts- Obviously

Martin - more so to see what they will do with him and if has improved his skills

Maric- traiing the house down all summer apparently :)

Spencer - If only for his unco kicking style, gets me everytime

Naturally pumped for the golden one Jesus H Watts

Man Old55 - you pipped me to the post literally!

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...

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."

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?

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.

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.

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

Is that a sick joke or are you being serious???

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

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
