Injury List - Round 6 (Mitch Clark 6-8 weeks)

Featured Replies

"Melbourne forward Mitch Clark will undergo minor surgery on his right foot, and will miss the next 6-8 weeks of football."

MITCH CLARK TO MISS UP TO TWO MONTHS

Definitely not the best news!

Mitch Clark (foot) 6-8 weeks

Mitch Clisby (shin) test

Jesse Hogan (corked thigh) test

James Sellar (ill) test

 

Trying to make the best of a bad situation, bring on Magner if Clark can be put on the long term list.

 

This year may wind up being worse than last year somehow. What a hole this club is in at the moment.
Let's hope Dawes can come in and provide a consistent target. We'll need him performing well since we barely get it down there as it is!

Just reported that Mitch is ot for 6 to 8 weeks to have surgery on his foot.


I am hoping this means Watts gets a chance to cement a spot up forward.

Also it should give a chance to include some midfield grunt in Magner if the club decides that Clark will certainly play no football over the next 8 weeks.

Watts, Dawes, Howe as key targets it looks like. Gee it gets no better

 

Ok, well, of all the 2 month lay offs, I guess having a screw removed because the old injury is going well is a good one...

I wouldn't be surprised if Fitzpatrick gets a call up as well... so it would be Watts, Dawes, Howe, Fitzpatrick, Gawn and Byrnes... not too bad. At least it is to remove the possible cause of his current problems and to free him up for good (screw removal).

And on the subject, it now looks like Rivers will be gone for quite a few weeks as his knee is worse than previously thought... have to feel for Geelong (a luxury I can now afford as hey are no threat to our position on the ladder), having lost both Rivers and Menzel to longer term knee injuries.

While he's out we can work on mids' delivery to the forward line, so we can reward his perseverance upon his return with the ball delivered on a silver platter after every clearance...

Good luck Mitch, hang in there.

The MFC website hinted at this after last weekends match. Dissapointed but not surprised. Magner is surely a must to come off the rookie list now ?! But nothing wld surprise me at the MFC. Probably leave him there for the rest of the year. I just hope they bring Gillies, Sellar and Joel back in real soon. I'm salivating at the prospect of having all 3 plus Pedo in the same team!

If Fitzy is EVER going to get an opportunity it's now.

Kicking goals hasnt been our problem, its getting it out of the centre and inside fifty.

Enter one James Magner.

Saw the big fella on Saturday morning at a local Prahran coffee shop, he was wearing a moon boot. I said to my wife, that this doesn't look good. I was hoping that it was precautionary....I was obviously wrong.

I feel sorry for him after being out for 12wks last year, he must be [censored].


Rusty, please tell me that is sarcasm?

I'm assuming so, I got a chuckle out of it. :)

We're one of the best teams this year for efficiency inside 50m, but one of the worst for getting it there.

Nooooooooooooo !!!!

Upgrade Magner

Leave Watts up forward

Enter one C Dawes

haha same

Add Fitzy and Seller to the mix and you have an all star line up

Fitzy kicked 4 for Casey. Has been good there this year. Has he done enough to earn a spot?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
