Melbourne is nearing a full strength list, with just Clark and Dawes on the injury list this week.

Round five injury list

Mitch Clark (foot) test

Chris Dawes (hamstring) test

That is incredible.

Injured Demon Clark down, but not out for the count

they the fd have always said the 3 preseason fitness regime would pay off. hopefully this could be the signs of what they have been saying all along. time patience and everybody talking positive about our reserves is what we need to continue untill the end of 2014

Dawes said he would be playing seniors in 2-3 weeks, so he thinks a game or two for Casey and straight in, with Clark missing def this week, not sure about the week after he just may be back in two.

He did say they had gradually built him up this time so the chance of reoccurrence is very small.

I really rate Dawes and if he can get back to the promise he was showing before his hand injury, we will have a top player who will be a leader for the club. I'm not really superstitious, but I am now touching all the wooden furniture here, which has been made a little harder by all the toes and fingers I am now crossing in response to the opening post. Doesn't make it easy to type either lol

Me?

No, the thread starter.

So few things go right for us, why tempt fate?!

We are one Nathan Jones injury away from packing up and calling it a season.

What he doesn't tell us is the status of Dunne and Joel Mac so we really don't know how prepared they are and whether they need a run at Casey. Yesterday Viney looked to be struggling with that ankle and may be rested. Easy to forget that Toumpas and Sellar didn't get a game at all on the weekend.

Good God, just IMAGINE how bad we'd be without Jonesy?!!!! Whilst he's no Chris Judd, he's the guts and heart, in fact the whole viscera, of this team. Not sure I can think of any player who's been more important to the MFC in the context of the time he's playing in. And his game to game resilience for his career thus far is Stynes and Tuck-like. Touch wood people!!!!!!!!!!

Doc Larkins just said on 3AW that Mitch Clark's foot has swollen up and that he's looking at "extended time". He said it's more than just a sprain, as the club is saying.

Doc Larkins is the WebMD of footy people, can we just wait and see please? They've confirmed it's not Lisfranc.

Did he inspect the foot?

The club has a history of under playing injuries and the time required, I'll be holding my breath on this until confirmed he is back out on the track.

Pity those two are our most important players forward. Not much they can do about that though.

you know Larkins works with the bulldogs and essendon doctor and the former Melbourne doctor.

And you know a lisfranc is a mid foot fracture dislocation and clark has a midfoot strain. It's like the compare the market and compare the meerkat ad. Simples

Without having seen the updates, are Gillies and Stark mentioned? As they have also been missing through injury of late..

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
