No idea whether or not he's broken his foot, but Colin Garland broke his navicular bone, spent a year out of footy, and is now playing some awesome footy. Not necessarily career ending

As soon as he's finally starting in the middle, he's injured. :(

exactly....its all the fault of those posters who called for this....shame on you :wacko:

I hope you arent stupid enough to think that just because a person has not been a member of this online forum for long means they are not reliable or that their posts have no crediblity.

No just an interesting observation. If you make such a claim you should be able to back it up with evidence. We'll hear from the club soon.

All i'm saying is my sources have reported a broken foot - for most of you that know anything about anatomy, a broken foot almost always means the navicular as it is kind of a wedged bone, can't move under pressure and often takes a lot of stress at it's skinniest point. So it's not anything different to a 'normal' broken foot.

And most of the time, a broken foot isn't all that bad, similar to a broken arm or something, wait for the bone to heal, which doesnt take long as it's a very small (but vital) bone. The only issue is the inability to perform any weight bearing tasks.

EDIT: completely understand the mis-trust, been on this thing for not long compared to most of you lot, however love the dees and i wouldn't go around making up [censored] and bull stories just to [censored] off my fellow supporters.

So basically because someone? said he has a broken foot you are guessing it is a navicular done.

Even if it is true you don't make a post like this unless you have some reliable information to back it up.

Bloody Adelaide last year it was Jurrah this year Grimes.....Im sure its not 2 bad!!!I hope ...

Interestingly, in Rod Nicholson's article to be published in the HUN tomorrow he writes -

"3.)  Melbourne's win was even more impressive given young gun Jack Grimes injured an ankle and was substituted within the opening 20 minutes, forcing the Demons to be more asture with rotations. He will have precautionary scans today."

Posted

If I remember correctly, we banned a poster for 12 for spreading misinformation about an injury allegedly sustained by Jack Grimes a couple of years ago.

I would suggest that our moderators will be consistent on this issue if the information turns out to be incorrect again this time (as I hope is the case).

Twelve months is a long time but in that instance the poster was given the opportunity to 'fess up and show remorse but that didn't happen on that occasion.

Grimes has had so many setbacks so far in his career. I hope this one doesn't keep him out for too long.

Posted

Have a look at the video of the team singing the song post match.

Grimes joins in, and I can't really tell if he's on crutches. He is definitely not on two crutches, possibly just one.

Can't have a broken foot if he's up singing the song. Anyone who has broken anything from the hip down before would tell you that standing up singing is not top of your priority list. Unless you are really high on Morphine. So fingers crossed!

He is leaning on something....

it'll be hard to cover the losses of Trengove and Grimes if they actually are rubbed out with suspension and serious injury as per the roumours...

Posted

actually he's leaning on two dwarfs (one for each hand) just out of camera range

i wish Dunn would sing the song instead of checking out his mo in the mirror nearby.

Posted

crutches.

Thanks for the clarification. I actually thought Grimes travelled to and from games in a zimmer frame. Fortunately you were here to let me know that Grimes wasn't actually using a zimmer frame when the players were singing the song.

I'm one -are you going to blame me..however hope it is only a sprain.Hope you are keeping well my friend.

Posted

I did not see that photo. In the video you can see him in the bottom of the screen and he seemed to stand on his own.

Please please please be kind to him footy gods, he deserves some good luck!

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
