Thrilled to see him updated on the injury list to only 3 weeks away now.

Obviously he'll have to do several weeks with Casey Reserves before being considered for Casey Seniors, and I don't expect to see him with Melbourne at all this season but I'm looking forward to seeing him run around out at Casey.

Competative kid who could play almost anywhere on the ground, and is the type of build we need going forward.

All the best of luck in your comeback from injury Rory!

    Rory is a powerful young guy who is very hard to tackle, I hope his bullish approach in juniors translates to the VFL and then AFL.

    Looking forward to seeing him play at Casey, has a ready made body for AFL and hopefully he can step up by the end of the season.

    No longer on the injury list I noticed this week.

    Fingers crossed he gets a start in the Casey development team this week.

    So anyone know about Rory's latest injury.

    After a great game for the Scorps a couple of weeks ago I was looking forward to watching his progress throughout the second half of the year.

    Acording to http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/137096/default.aspx

    He is back on the indefinite injury list with a back.

    Bad news indeed.

    One of the major problems we have developing players

    It's actually almost laughable the lack of luck we have

    And Gawn (OK, not a "top" draft pick ...)

    Scully should have an asterisk beside his name. Was he injured or was he "injured"?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
