The injury list according to melbournefc.com.au:-

Rohan Bail (knee) - 2 weeks

Aaron Davey (knee) - 4 weeks

Jack Fitzpatrick (ankle) - 4-6 weeks

Colin Garland (jarred ankle) - test

Jack Grimes (foot) - season

Mark Jamar (knee) - test

Neville Jetta (hand) - 2 weeks

Michael Newton (foot) - 4 weeks

Jake Spencer (knee) - season

Luke Tapscott (hamstring) - 1 week

 

Good to see Bail down to 2 weeks and that Garland's only jarred his ankle.

Jamar will play this week, passed him at Gate 3 on the way into the game and asked him myself. Handy source :)

 

I heard Bailey speak of Green and that he would be up for Richmond. Stated Green had played with discomfort before, and saw this game as being no different.

(It was reported Green rolled his ankle late against Fremantle and was on crutches after / the day after the game as a precaution).

The unavailability list (ordered by weeks):

Mark Jamar (knee) - test

Colin Garland (jarred ankle) - test

Luke Tapscott (hamstring) - 1 week

Rohan Bail (knee) - 2 weeks

Neville Jetta (hand) - 2 weeks

Aaron Davey (knee) - 4 weeks

Michael Newton (foot) - 4 weeks

Jack Fitzpatrick (ankle) - 4-6 weeks

Austin Wonaeamirri (personal) - indefinite

Jack Grimes (foot) - season

Jake Spencer (knee) - season

We're now missing ~4 of our best 22 (excluding the 'tests'), which I think is the best result in a fair while.

I think that was when the Freo player (can't recall who) came down on the back of Green's leg after Green marked and Green's leg was bent back under him. It's odd how for many players that could have resulted in a season ending knee injury, yet Green brushed it off as if nothing had happened; he's one tough hombre!

Old timer--5 would get into my best 22.

Luke Tapscott,Rohan Bail,Aaron Davey,Jack Grimes,Austin Wonaeamirri.

Although I must admit- Wonna may never come back and Grimes needs to kick better.

And thanks for placing the above in weeks- helps us other oldies.

Tappy still out is odd. Hope it's not masking something more sinister. Would have loved to see him on the push up King this weekend... not to be, as neither are playing.

I'm not an oldie, but no problems :P

I can see why you'd have 5 of those in the 22 - it's getting tough now.

King aint playing mate, he was suspended

I suggest you read other people's posts a little better in future . . . mate.

Slightly different story with the Herald Sun 

MELBOURNE

INJURIES:

Colin Garland (foot) test

Mark Jamar (knee) test

Luke Tapscott (hamstring) test

Rohan Bail (knee) 2 weeks

Michael Newton (foot) 2-4 weeks

Jack Fitzpatrick (ankle) 4 weeks

Aaron Davey (knee) 5 weeks

Jack Grimes (foot) season

Jake Spencer (knee) season

ON THE BLOCK: Jamie Bennell got limited game time as sub.

ON THE CUSP: Sam Blease, Matthew Bate

JON ANDERSON'S FORECAST: Blease, who the club has always had expectations of, is getting closer.

Tapscott taking a bit longer to ensure his hammy is right, is fine with me.

You don't want to take risks with that.

That's what I just said...

Sorry young fella- however thought you were over 21 in early to mid 30's.. well that is getting on..most footballers are retired by then-old bugger...

Can't wait for Tapps to return.

Oldie? I'm sure the moderating wisdom will come, eventually.

Whilst at the gym after work I noticed a guy in the official MFC gear and I asked him if he was a supporter and he said he was one of the trainers. I got chatting with him about injuries and he devuldged the following;

1. Jamar won't play this week. He said Jamar has trained for the last 10 days and Jamar believes he is right but the club will give it one more week.

2. Davey is at least 5 weeks away

3. Tappy is more than likely to play after the bye as Casey have a bye this week therefore no match fitness.

Just a little bit for you footy club culture paraniods. This guy told me he and his crew used to work at Hawthorn and how vastly better Melbourne is to work for. He went onto to say Bailey is one of the most approachable guys he's meet and from the Prez down to the property steward everyone loves him. He said the respect players show all staff is like nothing he seen at Hawthorn, He made special mention of Col Sylvia.

Sounds like a club with there culture right to me.

BTW I didn't ask him about Tom Scully.

Disgrace.

Delete entire post then. Really no reason to post unless you have a detailed report about Scully's emotional well being, state of mind and living situation :rolleyes:

 

You know, it's always made me think of x-men.

It's always been that way.

Don't know, but we seem to play that way onfield. Just a thought!

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
