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.

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.

When is a list ever injury free.

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.

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.

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

hopefully round4 against the gold coast will be the equivalent of a bye

I hope they dont bring Chip back too early.


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

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!

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.

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 ?

 

Herald Sun article suggests that Scully is in doubt but Trengove is right to go.

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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
