The Gys has played 20 minutes of footy all season. Barring any further injury problems, he will play at least a month at Casey to get his match fitness up, maybe even longer and I wouldn't think would be looking at a call up until at least round 18 or so.

If he can get a solid half dozen games in for the demons at the back end of the season then I reckon that is the best scenario for him to launch into 2013 at full fitness.

Strauss is in a similar boat.

Is the "every club can nominate one rookie after Round 11" rule additional to that? We could maybe nominate Sheahan.

Not sure if it's additional, I found it hard enough getting the rules as it was! But to what end would we nominate Sheahan? As I understand it he's been playing for Casey as a defender, what would we get out of playing him that we couldn't get from playing Troy Davis who is already on the senior list and has been in form?

With Bartram and Frawley shoo-ins if fit, you'd have to feel for whoever is dropped to make way for them after such a great team effort on the weekend.

Frawley - yes, probably for Green with Tappy to move forward: Bartram - how long since he has played at any level? Wouldn't rush him back.

And still little detail about Sam Blease -- was it a groin strain or some sort of corky from the master of kneeing? How is it going? Anyone been able to get to training this week?

Batram, Frawley, Bail, Jurrah, Gysberts, Davey, Martin and Petterd all not involved in that great win last week. Not a bad group of players at all

Frawley - gun, Jurrah - unique talent but not reliable. Bail - could of been handy. Gysberts, Davey, Martin, Petterd, Bartram - none of these guys were at all missed. The only benefit from a smaller injury list is that top line players feel the need to perform and the squeeze is on for a game, but with Sylvia, Davey and Green all dropped so far this year I hope no one who plays for Melbourne thinks they are safe

In the interview with Misson on the MFC website he says that Blease just got a really decent cork right on the pubic bone and it is just a matter of the pain subsiding and being able to run freely. With the longer break he expects Blease to be fit to play but will be dictated by training on Friday.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
