I'm not a sports science or fitness expert.

I just know what the club did with Wonaeamirri earlier in the preseason, after a similar situation.

I expect they don't plan on playing him for the rest of the season

Don't risk any injuries and get a good pre-season into him?

    The Lyon King was amazing last night - that sensational, prickly steel demeanour that he had as a player came through.

    I had a man crush.....

    but then he comes out and says he can't do the job on an ongoing basis because of his role in the media. Helllloooo!!! half the damn commentators and competition in general are conflicted up the their eyeballs. Let's see:

    - McGuire - say no more

    - Mick Malthouse commentates on SEN for god's sake.

    - All the player managers - Pickering, Lynch etc

    - Brayshaw

    - Dunstall does exactly what Garry has been asked to do and it doesn't seem to hurt him.

    I know he CBF doing it full time so just stick with that story I think.

    Still glad he is helping out, just disso that he won't commit.

    I really must be missing something here.

    I know he would not play this year at AFL level.

    However if he is not going to play at Casey why bring him back from the NT till Pre season starts.

    And why did he play last week?

    So I rang the club to be told " he was feeling a bit off after last weekends game".

    What does "feeling a bit off" mean?

    "He just felt a bit off"

    So did 40 other players and 36000 members.

    What the hell gives here?

    I think it's the cringe you have that is part of what he wants get out of the club, that sweeping under the rug of issues and problems. You cannot rectify an issue without having first acknowledged there is an issue in the first place.

    Mate sorry for being thick but I am not sure what you are trying to tell me?

    Can you put it a little simpler

    Never say never - when he gets in there, sniffs the dencorub, gets a rub down, kicks the footy.......

    If it's any consolation I couldn't make much sense out of it either (acknowledging that it came from a poster who is usually pretty articulate).

    Thank god Nasher I thought I had one red too many. But the problem was I had not opened the bottle

    A bit off subject Old Dee, but if you havn't already done so, try a bottle of the 2009 Emblem Shiraz from our sponsor Tyrrell's Wines, Heathcote vinyard. A lovely drop and extremely good value for MFC members and supporters. The label features our Emblem, of course. Guaranteed to ease some of the pain of the last week.

    Yep, quite simply you have to admit the problem before you can attend to it.. ( wasnt that hard guys !!)

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
