    I know I'll probably cop it for this, but I feel just about as good as I did hearing the Dunn suspension news as I do hearing this. Yes, never feel good about an injury, but......

    HOWE GAWN ARE WE?

    Honestly, did we annoy the big guy/girl upstairs, what happened to the one-week hammy? Everything is at least 4-6 weeks and I'm not talking about Nick Smith here.

    here's hoping they dont bring Dunn back!

    would like to think he was going to be dropped anyway a total waste of space who should have got arse long ago . Howe deserves a crack and lets have a look at the string bean...

    Dunn will come back - he's the only one who can play forward and pinch-hit in the ruck.

    Whether under normal circumstances he would be considered is another question!

    Ditto, I want Dunn to serve his time @ Casey for a bit.

    Bring in HOW EE! But I would have replaced Petterd with Howe, but now Newton is injured, I'd prefer not to lose the mature player. So maybe Petterd stays, but McDonald comes in as the big forward for Newton. Gawn to ruck.

    Hmmn, interesting, isn't it.

    Would never wish an injury apon someone, having said that I wanted him out of the side so I guess I got my wish.

    Surely there's little doubt now, Gawn's in.

  • Quote

    Wow, the ride never stops this season.

    To those taking a stab at the guy, I saw more decent efforts from Newton than I did from many of the other players vs Carlton (despite a few very obvious mistakes).

  • Quote

    Newton presented probably as often and as well as any other forward. At the moment he is the only player fit -- in a physical and performance sense -- for that position.

    Surely that's the banner this week?

    Hoping the same thing but of course, they will!

    I just received a call from the club asking me if I wanted a game this Friday night.

    Probably after the surgeon didn't give me the all clear to play. Must suck being choice #87 B)

    Please tell me you're not Lynden Dunn!

    Dunn has to play, we are running out of troops! Gawn has to get a look.

  • Quote

    FCS, it's only Tuesday and we've already lost two players this week for an extended period.

    What puzzles me this year is this strange phenomenon of a player who has played out a game with a little "niggle" that during the next week turns out to be a significant injury. Jamar, Davey, now Newton; Scully (to some extent, I can't remember whether he played out the game) in pre-season.

    You should- whatever else he tries his guts out for our team

    Surely once we get this winning three-way back on field we can't lose?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
