Someone normally pops up a thread about this each week so I figured I'd post it.

 

Thanks Rogue.

'Indefinite' irks me more than the '4-6 weeks'. Taggert's injury is frustrating me more so than any other listed.

 

Can someone clarify the actual meaning of indefinite?

Does that mean that there is a good chance that the injury is for life?

How can they not be sure how far away it is?

Probably because its a suck it and see thing dealing with backs..

By definition, it is "not definite".

They simply can't put a timeframe on it.

Well, as Misson said in the injury update video, as can sometimes happen with a back injury like Taggert's on one side, you can over-compensate for the injury and overload the other side.

This is what he has done.

So basically there's a stress reaction that they were looking out for.

It has occurred and they're not sure how long it will take to rectify it.

Like Grimes, it will probably involved learning how to run again, but with a different gait and engaging different muscles.

Gysberts is the one I'd like to see playing at some level out of the non-test players.

Is Jack Viney out for the same 2-4 does anyone know?

 

Gysberts, Jurrah and even Jetta should all be holding their spots in the best 22 :(

I emailed the club asking why Jetta's injury was indefinite and why they were unable to put a return date. I got nothing back! Funnily enough, I wasn't surprised. I'm not sure what that means, if anything.


Sounds like Jetta and Evans are not far off running so may see them late in the year

I bumped into Nev Senior at an amateurs game last Saturday (another son Rodney was playing). He told me Nev was on the improve and he expected him to be back at Casey in 3 - 4 weeks if all goes well.

It's been really tough on him because I really had a feeling that he might do well under Neeld's coaching if only he could get his body right.

I really hope Nev gets some games later in the season. I'm another who thinks that he and Neeld are a match made in heaven. I would think that Neeld would love the way he plays and he should thrive on Neelds gameplan. I just hope he can get on the park and show the coaches what he can do before they decide to cut him on general principles.

I've always liked the honest way Nev plays his game, unfashionable of late,,, but a solid work style & reads the ball well.

I think he'll go well in our contested ball style.

When he got this injury I thought that was the last we would see of Jetta

However we can only drop about 8 at the end of 2012 and there are a number who are playing who have put their hand up for delisting over the last two months.

Nev might get another year after all.

  • 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.
