After his GF, performance, I'm not so sure..

Seriously, his kicking at times is comical.

His GF performance was not too bad at all.. was was certainly in Freo's top two or three on the day. As for his kicking, I would put that down to nerves, as prior to the GF, he had missed only one set shot at goal all year and he missed two in the opening quarter on Saturday.

And if he doesn't fix up that problem his career will be haunted all through.

Appsrently he was totally shattered on Saturday post game...blames himself for the loss.

He will either get better or fade away. GF's do that to people.

Unfortunately, Choke, it's not his 'smouldering eyes' that is the problem. t's his foot.

How is he mending? Does he expect to do pre-season training?

The bottom line is, will he ever play again and if so, how likely is he to break down again?

Very big call

PJ he is asking the question " will he ever play again"

He is not saying he won't.

I think it is a legitimate question, he has had what can be a career ending injury.

I hope to god he plays 22 games in 2014 but I am worried that it will not happen.

Thanks for clearing that od... think its time I start wearing my glasses again - dont know how I missed that.

Its a good question. Normally it isn't a career ending injury for smaller players however for taller players it can be a very serious issue - very fiddly

Good to hear that his recovery is going well though and it was good of the club to send someone over with Dawes and Clark to help them. Hate for anything to happen and it get worse

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
