MELBOURNE

INJURIES

Jordie McKenzie (calf) TBC

Jack Fitzpatrick (concussion) test

Lynden Dunn (hamstring tightness) test

Nathan Stark (knee) test

Joel Macdonald (hamstring) 1 weeks

Chris Dawes (hamstring) 2 weeks

ON THE BLOCK: Plenty of players put themselves on the block in the second half against the Eagles. Mark Jamars horrible season continues with the big fella failing to take a mark and finding one kick. Aaron Davey was subbed out with five kicks, Cam Pedersen again battled while Jimmy Toumpas who will be a super midfielder doesnt look up to AFL standard just yet.

ON THE CUSP: Boy, wouldnt the Demons love to blood Jesse Hogan this week? Theyve got a ripper in the teenage power forward from out west. He monstered North Ballarat in the VFL with four goals and a clutch of marks, but cant debut until next season. Max Gawn was terrific again, ramping up the heat on Jamar, while James Strauss tried hard. As for Jack Watts? He didnt play anywhere, with the Dees bizarrely taking their three emergencies to the MCG on Saturday.

 

God, seeing how small that injury list makes me even more depressed.

At least if we had a big list and we lost by 100 points we would have more ways to justify it

 

It doesn't list mental scarring thank God.

You're referring to Post Traumatic Stress Disorders across the board?


Chris Dawes' 3 is looking more like 5..sigh

He was doing some pretty quick laps on Friday at training. Imagine they will be cautious. Clark will enjoy having Dawes and occasionally Gawn inside 50.

Whilst it probably would not have made any difference in any case McDonald, Trengove, Bail, Blease and Clark had interupted pre seasons. It will take a few more weeks before they get near their best football. McKenzie is a big out.

I remember the Cats doing the same thing with Ottens.

We are saving him for our run to the finals


liability with the ball

always beats his direct opponent, and his direct opponent is always the oppositions prime mover

we need McKenzie in the team

How is having a few bad disposals beating his opponent?

He'll most likely be 50 by then!

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
