Heard this morning that Doc Peter Larkins said Jurrah out with a possible ankle break and badly damaged ligaments, faces 8-10 weeks on the sideline. Coupled with the pending charges, this has been the year from hell and he may have well played his last AFL game, lets hope not...

He wasn't fit and shouldn't have been playing imo.

He injured his ankle in a fall, not because of fitness. Stop looking for conspiracies and people to blame, cos this is not one of those times.

I have to agree with this. But the club had to inject something into the game. That is how bad we are right now.

Sadly this club disgusts me at the moment. Since Jimmy died the whole place has been a wreck. I was hoping for the opposite.

Wishful dreaming obviously.

When he went off clutching his wrist I thought, "how much more bad luck can he (and us) have?" The answer is much more.

Really hope it turns out to be a lucky break, definitely no pun intended, and he'll be back in less time than currently predicted. It was pointed out that he may not have been fully fit, I disagree that it was a mistake to play him. But why did we put him back on after he came off with the wrist injury? Game was done, why risk him if he's re-injured the thing that's been keeping him out all this time?

it wasn't a wrist injury. it was a finger and he got it taped up

Jurrah's injury was not due to lack of fitness.

And the whole place has clearly been a wreck for a number of years before Jimmy died and has continued since.

Its no wonder the Club disgusts you with all that wishful dreaming.

Did you read the article hose?

It says what I said before. MFC hasn't advised yet of scans and Larkins is speculating

Sheez

I hope Larkins is wrong and its less.

The scan results won't be known until tomorrow, so until then, it's just speculation.

Ah, the elusive 2 day scan results. LJ would have surely had an X-ray in Sydney last night. As for the scans in Melbourne, it's for the full extent of the damage.

As for my source, he has never B.S'ed me in the past. Hope his wrong, but unlikely.

    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

    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
