Shortest list that I've seen for years:-

Robert Campbell (achilles) - 4 weeks

Jordie McKenzie (groin) - 3 weeks

Tom Scully (knee) - 6 weeks

Not sure what the go is with Cameron Johnston who hasn't played yet at Casey. I thought he was cleared to play.

Edited by High Tower
Scully is 6 weeks

    We've had an unreal run with injuries so far this year. Four matches and not one in a game seriously enough to miss weeks.

    Would the ultimate irony be a player injuring themselves in some obscure manner this weekend?

    Surely McKenzie will need a few rounds at casey for his fitness.. But who makes way upon his return?

    Its even going to be tougher once Suclly is 110% fit.

    Looks like Scully has been rolled back to 6 weeks again. I think we can consider it as 'indefinite' injury now and the club is probably of the same view but maybe doesn't want to start a media fire by officially calling it so

    I'd rather call it 'indefinite', or even still, I'd prefer to call it a '6 week injury.'

    Just because it has been pushed back does not mean it is indefinite.

    Correct weight and even C.C stated he maybe back earlier.

    Thats exactly my point - due to the rare nature of the injury the recovery time is unknown thus indefinite as defined here

    Did Jack Fitzpatrick play for the Casey magoos this week? Didnt see him mentioned in the goals or best,and cbf looking up the selected teams from the paper..

    Shame that we all really have no inkling on where Scully is at - it seems very mysterious.

    6 weeks went to 3 weeks, then back to 6 weeks, to 5 weeks, back to 6 weeks :/

    Go figure.

    Apart from that, injuries (or lack there of) have been very good to us (TOUCH WOOD!!).

    Looking forward to Jordie making his return.

    Yep, "Jack Fitzpatrick: Jack only had eight possessions in an OK performance."

    Just said this today... we'll get through to the end of week 5 with not a single match-day injury, off the top of my head. I think there was a Davey ankle, and maybe a Garland knee left on the park at some stage in that time, but they went back and found them the following week.

    And don't worry. Everything that's not typing is touching wood...

    No change yet to the injury list.

    Still showing last weeks details.

    I doubt much has changed.

    All three look long term to me.

    No official injury list this week but if you read the match preview on afl.com.au you will notice the injury list and the confusion continues:

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
