MELBOURNE

INJURED:

Rohan Bail (knee) 3-4 weeks 

Aaron Davey (knee) 2-3 weeks

Jack Fitzpatrick (ankle) 2-3 weeks

Jack Grimes (foot) season 

Neville Jetta (hand) 2 weeks

Joel Macdonald (knee) test 

Michael Newton (foot) 4 weeks

Jake Spencer (knee) season

ON THE BLOCK:

Sam Blease, Jamie Bennell, Liam Jurrah.

ON THE CUSP:

 

Luke Tapscott, Matthew Bate.

AL PATON’S FORECAST:

Tapscott has played two games in the VFL after a long layoff with a hamstring injury and is ready to go. Jurrah is unlikely to lose his spot for the game in his home state.

    Bail doesn't seem to improve which is a worry. Hope Tapscott is back in.

    The Age is saying this:

    MELBOURNE

    A Davey (knee) test

    J Fitzpatrick (ankle) test

    N Jetta (hand) test

    J Macdonald (knee) 1 wk

    R Bail (knee) 2-3 wks

    M Newton (foot) 2-3 wks

    J Grimes (foot) season

    J Spencer (knee) season

    Beats Me WJ I would say that the above may be close to the truth.

    However all clubs play funny buggars with their injury lists so who could tell what is the real truth.

    I can never understand who they think they are fooling.

    Serves little useful purpose that I can tell.

    Has our messing about with injuries and who is in the team when named on thursday won us a game?

    From our results you would have to say no.

    I've heard that Grimes is a chance to sneak in a couple of games later in the season. This comes from a friend who knows the Grimes family.

    ...and didn't he say as much on one of the Sunday footy shows a couple of weeks ago?

    Would love to see Grimes back this season.

    Would love to see Grimes back this season.

    I don't his injury is a very serious one it took Garland a full year to recover from a similar injury..

    Lets get him cherry ripe for 2012.

    we are not going to miss the grand final because he is out.

    Too good a player to risk for a match at the end of the year.

    Maybe so, just passing on what I was told.

    Agreed, there wouldn't be much value in Jack coming back underdone.

    • 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.
