Injury List

in Melbourne Demons

This is from the Herald Sun. The injury list should be ignored because it looks like last week's injury list. Austin Wonaeamirri for example, was injured at Casey last week and due for scans on his ankle - no mention!

MELBOURNE

INJURED:

Addam Maric (illness) test

Michael Newton (foot) test

Jack Grimes (foot) season

Jordan Gysberts (wrist) season

Jake Spencer (knee) season

James Strauss (leg) season

Michael Evans (back) season

SUSPENDED: Colin Sylvia (2 weeks), Aaron Davey (1 week)

ON THE BLOCK: It would be a huge statement to drop captain Brad Green, but so was making him substitute last week. Aaron Davey struggled again - but will be out suspended anyway - and Jeremy Howe had his worst game for the year.

ON THE CUSP: Matthew Warnock keeps playing well for Casey yet consistently gets overlooked. Tom McNamara has shown a bit.

JON ANDERSON’S FORECAST: Coach Todd Viney has shown himself as capable of making the tough calls so don’t be surprised for some more. Neville Jetta is knocking on the senior door and would no doubt enjoy the Gold Coast at the MCG this Sunday.

    geez I`d love to see a fit Grimes and Tapscott in our defense next year, Tapscotts kicking and toughness can be a real asset in years to come

    I woldn't mind seeing either or both of them push up the ground. Grimes to the guts and Tappy to impersonate Chappy through the midfield and forward line. :)

    Why are they testing Micheal Newtons foot? Should be his brain.....

    Newton's foot must be very bad- he has been out for a very long time.

    It might be the time of year or just plain bad luck but it seems we still can't take a trick on the injury front.

    Melbourne and Casey team selection last night confirmed three more casualties above and beyond what's on the official injury list -

    Lucas Cook - ?

    Addam Maric - ?

    Rick Petterd - quad

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
