Frawley Out Bate In

What are we doing????

All our good players are out,

WATTS has the longest twisted ankle in history.

JAMAR a seven week calf strain.

MARTIN runs out a game then all of a sudden has an injury

And FRAWLEY get an injury last minute.

They are the suss ones not to mention long term injuries to CLARKE etc

We have 17 on the injury list that is almost 40% of our list. Something stinks and i want to know what. Us members need to hear the truth.

The season has long been over.

If there is ANY risk of long term injury aggravation then it is clearly not worth a risk.

IF we can get everyone up and ready for preseason then we may have a decent opportunity of a decent ladder climb next year.

It is NOT tanking; it is sensible player / list management.

    Id like to see this kid get a game, he's going to be something else.

    Please tell me that was a sarcastic dig at some of the poster's on here... Please...

    Those players who were named as uncontracted till October in The Age this week, deserve a chance to show their wares.

    The AFL call it Free Agency and for clubs with no finals pretensions it seems honourable to give loyal and hard working MFC players the chance show another club that they might be worth drafting...

    Ugh, I truly honestly don't want to go today.

    I would rather spend the time burning my eyeballs.

    But alas, my sense of duty to this club is getting the better of me again.

    Please just go away 2012!

    Calm down folks. Might not be the end of the world. Tom McD will go to Reiwoldt and Sellar will take Koschitzke. Rather Chip have a rest than get a more serious injury.

    Bater might play forward and tear them apart! ;)

    (i'd also like to take this opportunity to remind people that by my calculations this means 8 of our best 18 are not on the G today - let alone best 22. Please take this into consideration when you begin to scream about how shite we are at 4:30 this afternoon)

    Agree with Heart beats true. Not the end of the world (yet).

    Curious to know if you guys were at the Saints game earlier in the year. Very close to snatching that one; Hayes was the difference. Can we do it again? If not, what will be different this time?

    Melbourne changes since round 5

    Ins - Jetta, Blease, Tapscott, Strauss, Spencer, Green

    Outs - Davey, Morton, Frawley, Bartram, Jamar, Watts

    Apart from Blease being in better form than Morton you could argue that all the ins are not quite as good as their equivalent outs

    (Clark was injured with concussion so missed the round 5 match)

    Good post. It would be interesting to look at this for equivalent games over the last 4-6 weeks.

    Does it really matter who is in the team today?

    Let the coaches have the last few weeks to watch players under match conditions.

    Neeld is giving Bater every chance to stay on the list. He wants him. Bitty Matty has to do it.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next 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.
