It's been a while now since his unfortunate injury. Does anyone know how he is going such as can he walk without the moonboot etc? I really hope his injury is not a career finishing one. But, knowing the luck of the MFC it could be. Gee, I'm a pessimist!

 

From what I know, he's still hobbling but is in the gym with a few other leg injury boys, so guessing just upper body for now... guessing tho

Recovery from this trivial sounding but potentially very serious injury is no certainty and I think we must just give him as much time as it takes.

I would take the lack of comment by the club, or by Mitch himself, as just reflecting this uncertainty rather than a cover up.

 

He has a facebook page now and said he was doing weight sessions with Bennell and he was feeling good. Round 1 2013 hurry up!

Not without good reason BM

Gee I hope lack of talent does not rub off on him!

 

What a goose of a thing to say.

I was meaning Lack of talent franky_31

I am not up to that sort of crap

I agree I have changed it did not look good

Yes, to quote:

Solid session today in the gym with JB and Flash Davey. Feels good being back with the boys and finally doing some training. Bring on 2013!

Spoke to Mitch at the G on Sunday. Yes, he's in a moonboot and still on crutches. He made my nephews' day, signing their football and having their photo taken with him. It's that sort of interaction with players that will ensure they're Demon supporters for the rest of their life. Thanks, Mitch!

One of The critical parts of the recovery process is complete non weight bearing for several months.

There is really nothing else to report one way or the other at this stage.,and There is nothing sinister in non reporting because there would really be nothing to report .

In next phase when he he starts running etc will be better able to judge post op progress .

Really happy for them to take their time with him, the most important player on our list.

Got alot of respect for Mitch with the regular fan interraction and giveaway. He's obviously very passionate about Melbourne too. Worth every cent so far.


And most expensive

To think we could have spent the same money on keeping Tom Scully...

... who?

Not really worth every sense from a playing perspective, given he has missed most of his first season and has an injury with potential long term ramifications.

In every other sense, I totally agree (e.g., interaction, work to promote club etc) but having a paid player actually play is important in assessing the overall worth.

Fair point. Fingers crossed his injury is not chronic...

having a paid player actually play is important in assessing the overall worth.

Sure, but up until his injury he was well and truly earning the biccies, from my perspective. Put in 100%, played with pride in the jumper, and kicked a sh!tload of goals. Excellent recruiting on our part, just bad luck with the injury.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
