Injury List - Round 8


alpha33

Recommended Posts

Apart from Tom Mac, there's no let up in sight according to the BAROMETER and Colin Sylvia's out for 3 weeks as well.

Mark Jamar (groin) 1-2 weeks

Jack Watts (hamstring) 1-2 weeks

Jack Grimes (collarbone) 6-7 weeks

Mitch Clark (foot) 6-7 weeks

Jack Trengove (calf) 2-3 weeks

Tom McDonald (shoulder) TBA

This doesn't take into account the obligatory one or two mystery injuries of the week.

IMO, we just swap 8 or 9 players with Casey and be done with it.

Inclusions should be Nev Jetta, Jimmy T and Jack Fitzpatrick as well as Tom.

Fitzpatrick must play, he's kicking goals regularly and we need that, even if they're not neccesarily pretty.

Magner must come in for Sylvia

Nev Jetta to come in for Nicho or Strauss

McDonald to come in for Sellar if fit

Jack watts spoke in Hassatt room on Sunday hoping to play this week.

Jetta spoke as well, he has been told that he has to earn his spot back through Casey as he was suspended.

I hope they make Colin Sylvia do the same.

He will need to learn how to conquer his fear of getting anywhere near the ball....

Ask yourself, if a defender isn't near the ball is that a bad thing?

I'd rather Strauss get 10 disposals and use them effectively whilst his man gets 10 than Nicholson's 20 with 10 turnovers and his opponent get 20.

So, will Magner come in?

Doubtful if you go by this article on the club website - McDonald set to miss two matches

I have the impression from what's written in the article that the club doesn't consider that Mitch Clark or Jack Grimes have injuries that will keep them off the playing field for the 9 weeks (8 rounds + the bye) necessary to be put on the LTI. Therefore, unless there's a mystery injury or retirement, Magner would be forced to wait until after round 11 when the club can activate one rookie elevation without putting a player on the LTI. I'm not that big a fan of Magner (too slow) but with Sylvia's suspension, he might have been handy in the midfield.

There does seem some hope of Jamar, Watts and possibly Trengove coming in so the information in the OP looks to be a bit dated.

WJ, I thought Grimes was already put on the LTI. We just haven't promoted anyone yet.

And from the CBA my reading is 8 weeks, not 8 rounds, same as Gawn was at the start of the season.

The Age list seems to be more up to date than the one in the HUN:

Mark Jamar (groin) test,

Jack Trengove (calf) test,

Jack Watts (hamstring) test,

Tom McDonald (shoulder) 1-2 weeks,

Nathan Stark (groin) 2 weeks,

Mitch Clark (foot) 5-7 weeks,

Jack Grimes (shoulder) 6-8 weeks.

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
