maybe only 4. should be right for the home run. He'll have a strong run home. LJ is one of the few great reasons to follow Melb these days.

How often does an injury start at a couple of weeks, and then keeps blowing out as the weeks roll on. Very frustrating, but it is obviously difficult to accurately predict injury lengths. Would almost rather them give more of a worst case scenario at the start.

There's a lot of reasons to be hopeful going into season 2012 but it seems LJ is not going to be one of them.

Still some weeks away from handling the ball and then he's gone have to find touch in the magoos before cracking it for a senior berth.. it's gonna take some hard work to get back in the caper.

I really hope he is a part of Neeld's plans, he is beautiful to watch at his best

even if LJ does take a while to get himself right he's still a gun. came back from a serious shoulder injury to be our leading goal kicker and lets face it he boosts MFC membership and for good reason. He's electric and watch him fire up second half of this year:) go LJ

You might have seen that olisik didn't just say Charles had a bad wrist, olsik also said Charles was a great player.

Charles was a great player. I read the comment and this is why I am Q?? Still don't get why the chuckle and the bad wrist analogy? Did I miss the joke??

A great player? Really?

I liked Sean Charles but he was far from an AFL great IMO.

Wayne Carey, James Hird, Sean Charles..?

That said, I bandy around phrases like 'great player' less easily than some; it's all relative.

Better clear this one up. slight misunderstanding here. I simply repeated Olisek.'s comment as follows " I think Sean Charles was a great player. With a very bad Wrist"

I can remember Sean Charles was very very fast and a beautiful kick. Not really a "great player" but a good one all the same. Did beautifully long torps though. The tone of "great" is what counts here :)

I just didn't understand the "Sean Charles had a bad wrist" comment in the general context of the LJ Topic. Then the subsequent "chuckles". What is so funny that one needs to chuckle?

... has been given the all-clear to train with the main group..

Think it's the main rehabilitation group. As opposed to training apart from the group, presumably as part of his sanction for drinking etc.

This is good news but none of it really matters unless he can somehow avoid jail time.

Where does your "somehow" come from? He denies the charges, and is released on minimal bail, but you would rush to speculating on sentencing?

Strange thinking for a "supporter"...

Hold your nerve, and don't talk silly talk

LJ claims he didn't touch him.If so, will not have any issue re jail.Getting back in the team, is his first priority and succeeding.He owes that to himself, family, great friends such as Bruce etc..

They mentioned before the GW$ v Swans game that Jurrah has had the pin removed from his wrist, is feeling a lot better (injury-wise), and has been given the all-clear to train with the main group..

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
