End of the 3rd quarter, looked like he re-injured his ankle. Looked disgusted and punched the ground a couple of times.

Hopefully it's nothing serious but it didn't look good. He was playing exceptionally well before the injury too. :(

    The guy can't take a trick. Our backline just looks so much better when he's there. He played well, again today. Certainly hope it's not too serious!

    Classical case of being rushed back in... :(

    Not sure how you figure that. He played with Casey last week...

    He walked off with the other players after the game!!

    True. He was out, chatting to Barlow shortly after the siren. No sign of crutches at that point...

    was on crutches after the game

    Definitely not on crutches when coming off the ground, no ice, no strapping, just a small limp.

    Was he on crutches in the rooms?

    looked like a rolled ankle to me. there was no downward pressure on the foot.

    I originally thought he'd cramped up in the calf or something...but he definitely wasn't on crutches and walked off with the team.

    By the sounds of it he should be alright for next week. If it was anything serious they would have had him iced up and on crutches keeping off any weight.

    He will be very very important for us next week with the Tigers forward line.

    Not uncommon to be on crutches for an ankle as a precaution.

    He was effin excellent in that first half.

    Bailey press conference right at the end he is asked about Garland and Bailey said he should be right for next week. He just jarred it more than anything else and they decided that they had the sub there anyway so to rest Garland and use the sub. He didn't seem real concerned, just said it is a case of see how he pulls up in the next 24 hours...

    Thats good, I don't mind if he's not with us in Darwin, But we need him against the Tiges.

    How good was he looking before he went off? We're so much of a better team with him. He's really not far behind Chip at all as our most important defender, if he is at all.

    As for the injury, has anyone else noticed how many times he's been in the hands of the trainers, looking like he's done for the year, then he comes back on the ground and plays well... He's done it to me about 6 times where I've turned to my mates and said he's done... So I'm hoping the punching the ground is just another example of that.

      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.
