Injured calf ankle and knee? Doubt he ll play a game in 2014 at this rate.

Not writing him off yet but jeez he hasn't had the greatest start for us and looks like its gonna be another slow one for him next year at the start of the year..

 

god damn it

whats wrong with him, hes been injured for 12 months mow


Is it possible the ankle and calf injuires are connected to the until now undetected knee problem?

If so then this might be good news.

I reckon Chris is more disappointed than all of us put together.

No doubt he'll be trying his best to play round 1 next year. Fingers crossed he makes it.

at least he will qualify for the IPS

the 'interrupted preseason' line that everyone trots out during the season to automatically excuse a player who performing badly

Sylvia, Trengove huge fans of the IPS

Not the best news, but he may well play more games next season than he did this year!

Why the pessimism folks?

Better now than Round One.

All is well in Demonland.

GO DEES!

Fear not.....Arizona will fix everything.

Not a prob we have a altitude {attitude ? } cubicle & no reason to go to Arizona as we're off climatic training 3 times minimum in NT next year

This bloke has received quite an amount of unreasonable stick on this forum. In the games I saw him play he demonstrated what hard work and hard running means. He would go after a kick, he would chase and tackle hard. He is the sort of player JW should watch carefully. He obviously has a brain and is a leader.

I reckon he is a great aquisition to the MFC and it is unfortunate he has suffered a run of injuries. Among the first handfull picked when fit.

I hope he gets over his injuries quickly.

FFS.

Was never this injury prone at the filth was he?

Better now than later I suppose.

If you cannot get on the park you are useless.

And people were worrying about how we would fit Hogan, Fitzy, Clark and Dawes into the forward line.

I am glad we did not trade Fitzy as some wanted.

When fit are the two important words.

looking like he are paying very big money for very few games.

Don't hold your breath DemonWA

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
