    By my reckoning he was on the list until May 10.

    Then played 1+ quarters vs Swans May 19

    Then back on May 25 and has been on it for 11 weeks.

    Not exactly a great productive year.

    Does that mean he fronts for Casey this weekend?

    I really hope so

    Watts still in the test group, this had been a very serious minor ankle injury.

    I'm sure I read that McKenzie was a late replacement because of a knee complaint; yet the list has him as "shoulder (test)"?

    Edit:

    Thought so... from the MFC site game review:

    INJURIES

    Melbourne: Jordie McKenzie (knee) was a late withdrawal. Morton (shoulder)

    Thought so... from the MFC site game review:

    I always take the injury list with a grain of salt

    The only ones I believe is when they Say "Season or Indefinte"

    The rest is just to keep the troops happy.

    Maybe they meant he'd been kneed in the shoulder...

    Does that necessarily mean he'll be playing this week?

    I am sure I read somewhere that LJ will line up for Casey this week.

    What is up with Watts? I'm now officially getting worried. Four weeks is a long time. I hope it is not more serious than they are letting on.

    You don't believe the 224s? Sheesh you're a cynical old bastard :o

    I heard he did the ankle twice. Once was in the game, then he was pretty much right but aggravated/re-injured it in training, early word is he'll be right for this week.

    I bloody hope so. At the moment he's sitting on my Super coach bench with Mitch Robinson. With an elimination final and only 3 trades i want him back!

    I dont think soft as butter Jurrah will make it back before the years out.

    I've been under the impression all year that MFC are sneakily trying to keep him out of the spotlight, for his own sake.

    Not saying I know this as a fact, just where my instinct goes given the timing of his comeback and the length of time he's been out with seemingly minor injuries.

    "Soft as butter" is the last thing I'd call him though, if you've seen his reaction to his various injuries you'd know the guy has a pretty massive pain tolerance.

    Soft as butter? And I thought our problem was our inability to spread...

    (And I think your assessment is way off. With all the psychological trauma he's been through over many years, I suspect he's one of the mentally toughest players on our list.)

  • Quote

    He won't have much chance to build up his upper body before the most crucial year of his vocational life, but hopefully Misson can fatten him up around the middle - see if that helps the bloke.

    We could build a better side out of our injury list - than the side we have atm.

    15 on injury list

    22 + 3 emergencies to be named

    will only be 2 players not selected. My guess is that it will be Cook and Fitz

    Be interesting to know to what extent his ongoing shoulder issues over the past couple of months have effected him and his position in the team.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
