I didn't get to watch the game and can't find any information about the injuries to Bail, Garland, and Jurrah (leg, according to HS).

Can someone give me a brief summary of the type and severity of these injuries.

    Bail - PCL. Seems like it might be serious but as far as I know there's been no word on length yet.

    Garland - ankle. Came back on after initially injuring it but went off soon after. Again, no word on length.

    Jurrah - had his knee taped up at some point but played out the game. I'd be surprised if he missed this week.

    According to Bailey's post match-

    Bail- PCL (so a 4-6 minimum) (CFUK FCUK FKUC)

    Garland- Ankle (at best a minor sprain, doubtful for this week, look out if it's any worse than that) (CFUK FCUK FKUC)

    Jurrah / Martin- although listed in various post match reports, Bailey indicated there was nothing too serious with them.

    Garland, some sort of ankle came back on with a jab or something to seemingly get through to or past Haldf time before subbing. With that I wouldn't right him off for next week as he came back on.

    Bail it seems, is a Posterior as against the earlier talk of Anterior!

    Jurrah I didn't here about.

    Thanks for that. Very dissapointing. Our season is getting worse and worse. A week ago, we were doing well injury wise, now players are falling left, right and centre. I really liked Bail in the last few games and Garland is important. Our lack of depth will be exposed over the next few weeks.

    Both Garland and Bail were having really good seasons. Bail is a huge loss given his pace and courage-in only his 17th game.

    Davey and Greens heart went missing. Will talk crap this week and pull up fine next week. Will go missing when it gets hard again!

    Bail is immensely underrated outside the MFC, I feel. He is a superb tagger and run-with player. Will be sorely missed as he plays his role each and every week.

    Our backline is becoming more and more depleted with Rivers, Garland and Grimes all out injured. Hopefully Riv can make his return next week.

    Seems the MAXIMUM length on our injury list is 4-6 weeks, so after our month of playing the Top 4 teams, we should have most guys back (perhaps apart from Bail). Pending no further injuries, of course...

    Be prepared for a very disappointing next month, peeps... :(

    Injuries also won't help Bailey's coaching cause... looks ugly.

    Bail will be missed. He is one a few that work hard both ways! Runs hard and uses it ok as well.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
