Heard a rumour that Jake Spencer has done his knee and needs a reco... Did he pick up an injury at Casey yesterday?

Not saying that it is a definite but it's a pretty strong rumour going around..

Bright side, Gawn will get more opportunities in first-grade VFL for Casey.

Reports are that he was a class above in the reserves.

Scullys 6 week injury is dragging out.. he was 6 weeks away on April 13 and on May 3 he was 5 weeks away. Surely his injury is much worse than expected. However, during the game yesterday I heard that he was on the track running this week. So fingers crossed he needs a few weeks to get his fitness back up. Then we can see him tear it up for the Demons.

could be a chance for micheal evans to be promoted as he has been showing strong progress for casey.

The way Bailey was talking up Scully's fitness and how he'll "quickly regain fitness as he is such a fit guy", tells me that they won't even bother with Casey practice games first and he'll go straight into the side (maybe as a sub) once he gets the all clear.

Spenser and Fitzpatrick injured suck for their development... but won't impact the senior team. Neither was close to selection.

Grimes is a big loss. sucks!

Gawn rucking at Casey with Campbell (soon hopefully) will be great for his development... not that i'm glad Spencer is gone, but i see more future in Gawn than Pencil.

Both Jake Spencer and Jack Fitzpatrick sustained their injuries during the second quarter at Preston yesterday.

Injuries are terrible but they're part and parcel of the game.

Sad for it to happen this way but the injuries will fast track Michael Evans' career. He played well again yesterday and his pace could be handy in Melbourne's midfield. This will accelerate his elevation from the rookie list and he could get a guernsey by mid year.

Dan Nicholson has been in good form at Casey as well but was subdued yesterday.

Best wishes to Jack and Jake for speedy recoveries!

With Gawn clearly 2-3 years away from senior footy, if Jamar went down Robbie Campbell would be heavily relied on.

He is now back from injury, drafting him could prove valuable.

Can you imagine If jamar went down...

Don't even look at bigfooty...someone has heard Jamar is out for four....the walls are caving in!!

Posted

Man i want to let lose every expletive i know!!! Really sucks, last year it was Petterd that went down early this year it's Grimes. All the best with your recovery Jacky boy, look forward to you tearing it up when you get back.

If Spencer's knee really does need a reco then this could be it for him at AFL level. I imagine coming back from a knee reco is going to take some serious time. Horrible news for Jake, the club and us fans.

Hopefully both boys can have a speedy recovery.

Tall stocks seem to be thinning. Campbell being rookie listed now looking like a master stroke.

The Skipper was on One Week At A Time on One HD again tonight looking far more relaxed than last week (BTW) They asked him about Scully and he said 3-4 weeks in a pretty positive manner. Hopefully it is the case.

Spencil's a big guy, they'll give him 2 years to recover.

Let's not go nuts, Campbell's barely played a VFL game yet, he's a long way away from being fit enough.

Campbell has missed alot of football and has just recommenced playing. He is still terribly underdone.

Spencer was our insurance for Jamar. And we would have been better getting that game time into Spencer.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
