Lynden Dunn (hamstring tightness) is this week's phantom injury.

We've got a bye in round 4. All these players except Davis and Campbell will be available for round 5.

Considering the irrelevance of Campbell and Davis to our 2011 aspirations, it's pretty good that our longest term injury is only going to be out for 3 matches!

Dissapointing not to have McKenzie, Chip and Morton available, but seeing as they will be back early on it isn't too bad a situation.

Posted

James Frawley this morning on SEN said he is looking to put his hand up this week and hope he gets the go-ahead. If not, next week Round 2. The 3-4 weeks on the list makes me wonder if it's right.

DeezMan's post looks on the money.

Given past years, our injury list coming into the season is not too bad. Although I hate to have anyone injured at any time.

Yep compared to other clubs we are doing ok up to this minute.

When is a list ever injury free. If chip is ready it maybe worth giving him a run, just so he at least gets a feel. A first up game against Buddy and those evil hawks would be tough going.

That said if he is at all a liability to play this week-Just don't.

Premiership teams usually have a fantastic run with no injuries eg Sydney c2005

sure, same as the filth last year. But they would have still managed many a player behind closed doors.

After a long pre season and practice matches we are in pretty good shape (Touch wood)

I think Greeny let the cat out of the bag last week when he said that Chip would play second round.

.... and now Scully is in doubt it seems, still having trouble with his knee, and even if he plays is "underdone". (HS).

Let's hope this isn't a portent of what the season holds.

Posted

Best to give Scully time to fully recover so the injury does not become more serious than it is.

With these injuries, there's also a bit of a silver lining: there's room in the team for some of the younger guys and untried talent to have a shot at the big time.

Hopefully we'll see the likes of Tapscott, Blease etc come through with impressive showings early on in the season.

Bye Rd 4 or 5? My program says round 5, Gold Coast Rd 4.

Chip will be round 2 (Dean bailey on mmm this morn). Scullys in doubt (DB again)And Trengove is struggling to get up with his ankle

Posted

If you add Scully and Trengove to the injured list for this week, we compare pretty poorly to most clubs on the injury front to start the year in terms of numbers missing. Obviously some are worse off than us, but we're definitely on the wrong side of the injury curse once again to start the season. Thankfully there's not much in the long-term category.

Adam Goodes in doubt, which would be handy.

Source????

It would indeed be handy, but unlikely...

HS:"an option to take Adam Goodes, is also on the sidelines."

SORRY, my bad. I miss read the article. Getting way to excited. Must calm down!

Posted

Never again will I take any notice of an injury list during the pre season. I am sick to death of reading how well we are travelling with injuries and then come the first round, several top players are unavailable.

Posted

I don't have any info on Scully's knee, but they were cautious with him during the 'practice' matches, then played him against Brissy - what is exactly the concern on his knee ? Medial ? What ?

Stress-related injury on his left patella (knee cap) - 4 weeks out

Jordie out for 6 also :(

BUT.... we are fortunate that, after Round 1, we get Chip back (MAYBE Morton).

Seriously... with all due respect, after Round 2 (Hawks) we have Brissy down here, Gold Coast (Gabba), BYE, West Coast (Patersons) and then Adelaide down here. Thankfully we don't have to play too many top teams at all... until Round 8. Rounds 1 and 2 will be testing... and perhaps West Coast up in Perth.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
