Grimes walking off in a sling is a scare though, lets hope its minor.

Precautionary these days I think mate. Like players with leg injuries coming off on crutches now.... Well I hope so anyway.

    The Future Fund season launch is tonight - they sponsor Grimes, Watts and Garland so will be interesting to see if he attends.

    We should know more shortly after 6pm I'd imagine. Hopefully he's there and will be ok.

    Fingers crossed.

    Indeed daveytrain1.

    If he's ok the hand should be back on. So much hinges on the scan of one player...Nevermind the rest of the team and 4 weeks from the start of the season.

    This is [censored]!

    Is there a way to literally wrap a player up in cotton wool and still have them play effectively?!

    I cannot believe that you are here being a clever head about our captain being injured. Enjoying your moment? Now personal abuse is wrong and all, so all I'd ask is that you go away. You add nothing other than to publically enjoy another man's suffering and use it to moan about things you clearly do not understand. Pick up your bags and kick your can somewhere else.

    Unfortunately SMF I think grimes would get injured playing cards.

    Sad but true.

    So LJ hurt his wrist in Rd 23 last year, and it's still not right!

    Talk about a shambles.

    Hmmm Sean Charles.......

    Shattered for grimesy. Hoping that it's nothing too serious but only time and scans will tell. Hypothetically if it is a serious one I can't imagine how soul destroying it would be to miss the best part of a year of footy,finally get back and put in a big pre season,get named captain of the club then in a training mishap it all comes crashing down in the matter of seconds.

    If he is out for a few months does it mean more pressure on Trengove as sole captain?

    Hell "a few months" is potentially the season or ours anyway!

    I doubt Trengove will be under any more pressure, If Grimes is long term they might add another captain!

    The video doesnt show it low enough for a dislocation. I am still sticking with sublax.

    When I dislocated my shoulder, my collarbone stuck out across alot more, but his shoulder muscles are a little bigger then mine.

    Stingers hurt, they do, not as much as dislocations but still more then your hamstring, knee sorta thing.

    I still have my hopes.

    And in terms of cracking, that could have been anything, doubt it was directly related.

    Just heard on the radio that it is not as bad as first thought. It was said that the injury doesn't seem too bad.

    I think it was the sound of my heart breaking.

    Oh well, this may give Tynan more game time to develop. "Always look on the briiiight side of life" :unsure: .

    It's pretty rare for any team to have their best 22 out there for Rnd 1.

    Fingers crossed but I don't like the look of the pain he was going through.

    • 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.
