INJURY LIST - ROUND 5 - aka the Dave Misson Appreciation thread

Featured Replies

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

Some may argue that that is not a total disaster,

 

We desperately need a long term injury to get Magner on the playing list. I think he is must option for the mid field for matches coming up. He and jordie are needed to stem the carnage when we face the top sides. I don't want Mitch to be the out please.

 

I'm so sick of hearing about "subluxations" and "contusions".

What's wrong with the more widely-known "dislocations" and "bruises"?

The subluxation is a partial dislocation, out a bit then back in again. It's not the full monty.


With Clark and Dawes possibly both coming back through the VFL at the same time, and Hogan thumping along at Casey too...

Best 2s level forward line ever?

I say we shave his hair and tan him up and try to pass Hogan as Dawes for this week.

They'll never know, and if they find out, lets just say we had 'never formally employed or had direct contact with the beautician who undertook this makeover'. It'll be fine.

 

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

Larkins' credibility took a bit of a nosedive when he declared two years ago that Tom Scully's knee injury was potentially career threatening and one which would severely restrict him for the remainder of his time in the game. On what I saw last Sunday that doesn't appear to be the case but of course, I'm not a medico.

Perhaps we should be asking Dr. Turf who seems just as qualified and a Demon fan as well.

Mainly because a subluxation ain't a dislocation. It is just a little bit of a one.


Re Stark, saw him at Windy Hill last week, he is over his injury just gave him the week off playing, then back at full tilt training, he explained.....young guy, rookie, still building him, no rush......alwyas on the side of caution.....Barry was the same.........why we only have 2 on the injury list

The subluxation is a partial dislocation, out a bit then back in again. It's not the full monty.

it doesn't always go back in again, hence my shoulder being pinned together

I hate to cast a cloud over a generally positive thread (that's my bitter half) but does it not worry anyone that, despite one of the best injury free starts to a season ( and therefore fielding almost best sides) that we have copped three massive floggings?

Only you by the looks of it, follow the Club mantra, it will take time and the last place you will see the improvement is on the field.....this is a post about Misson and how his bit seems to be working

We have basically a two person injury list and yet I'd give anything to have Dawes and Clark available to play. Does that say something about human nature? Are we that hard to satisfy?

If that is the case for the first time ever I will choose watching Casey over Melbourne

Worries me Bbo

just a way of pretending to be more of an expert

  • 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.
