    What I hope is that it isn't too bad and that he can return by either Rd 1 or at least in the first 4 rounds.

    Man, so unlucky.

    I want to finally be at a game and wear my Number 16 Guernsey and actually see him play...

    Anyone actually at training this morning who can fill in any details?

    This is scary, hanging on more news. If it's serious that is so devastating for both him and the team.

    Hard to say by looking at the photo's as to whether it was Davis hitting him from behind or when he hit the deck.

    Didn't look dislocated.....Might just be bruised

    Having done 5 shoulder dislocations in my footy so far.. only 22 :(.. it doesnt look like a dislocation more just a stinger or a sublax.

    Sublax shouldnt be more then a few weeks, all it is when he hit the ground the shoulder would have moved in the socket a bit and goes a stiff and you can't lift your shoulder above your head.

    I would be very suprised if the physio was doing that on the ground if he actually dislocated it or broke the collar bone. The collar bone break normally sticks out and they would know right away.

    I am thinking this was just a minor impact injury and afl.com.au getting all up and about cause they had people there watching training.

    If I am right, expect him back for round 1 at the latest.

    So, assuming he is unavailable for Saturday's game (although the pics are pretty inconclusive), who will lead the team?

    Left shoulder? Collarbone?

    Going through that slideshow (footy in cartoon form) I don't think it will be too bad.

    Give him the praccy games off and see you in a month.

    • 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.
