I think this is his fifth week missing now for what started as a one week injury.

Does anyone know anything about his injury?

Please dont tell me its his foot, his back, a broken leg or its career threatening.

The silence around it all is stating to concern me.

    Had a set back trying to prove his fitness.

    He's very keen to get back out there ...

    Thanks Harcourt, I bet he's keen to get back out there, he was putting some good games together.

    In a moon boot the last few weeks for precaution, not going to rush him now - no point.

    He injured his ankle earlier on in the year, i believe he missed one game, and re-injured it and is worse than was first thought.

    Will not play again this year but should not be an ongoing problem.

    Maybe he has been doing a lot of extra weights this year and is continuing to do so to build up his size. When it comes time for the start of pre season he will be ready to start working with his new frame rather than trying to build it over pre season.

    Maybe a vision of putting him forward again next season.

    His injuring is taking longer to heal than expected.

    I heard someone or the radio (no idea who) say that they are in no rush to bring him back because he has already exceeded all expectations for this season and they don't see a great deal of value in pushing him to get back on the field for a dead rubber. He has nothing left to prove this season, so they are focusing on some of the other players who maybe need to show that they can play before the end of the season.

    Any further updates on Jack? Is he still alive? Anyone seen him lately?

    An hour or so ago on the radio they said he is expected to come back into the side this week...

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
