Featured Replies

Posted

Guys,

Great training reports.

In relation to injuries, we hear who is in the rehab group. Would be great if anyone can update us to how many weeks it will take for them to get back to full fitness.

Can anyone upfate us as to how long it will be until each rehab group member is back to full fitness?

Thanks in advance.

 

I will give it a try after speaking to a few players yesterday

Bartram - just managing the load

Grimes - same

Strauss - same

Davey - same

Evans - Rd 1 Casey

Spencer - two weeks

Jurrah - wrist just needs protecting

Jetta - one week before free from shoulder problem

Tapscott - do not want a recoccurence of last year by rushing back...caution..unknown

McKenzie - issue with Achilles.....a point he wore one of the white tops (main group was in blue or white) yesterday as if to say to staff he is ready to go - rest of Rehab group were in normal training tops

Williams - managing load trying not to break him, from amateur football

so sylvia's quad is all good? how about cooks hip?

Thanks Satyricon.

So it is really only Tappy and Jord that it is not so clear when they will commence. Other than that (and of course big Maxy) we are looking in pretty good shape for a full list to select from for round 1.

Sylvia did not train with full group, but didn't look proppy, Cook was with main group....Roh Bail yesterday seemed to feel something and he was straight off to the massage table they actually have out on the field in a marquee......so we seem to be ultra cautious..we are not in bad shape for Feb.....

thanks mate. Probably more accurate than any 'official' injury list the club puts on the website.. :wacko:

Let's hope with the new coaching and performance team we might get better injury info as the season proper starts.

I was at training yesterday and davey was still favouring his left leg (I think) at the end, though he was kicking with it earlier on.

 

When was the last time that we fielded a team that was picked from a fully healthy list? It looks like we could be doing that for Round 1 (with the exception of Gawn, of course, but I don't think he'd currently crack the best 22 anyway)

Round 1 is still a long way off GTG

There is still a min. of 5 games before round 1

Keep your fingers crossed

  • 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.
