Training - Friday 10th January, 2014


Matt Demon

Recommended Posts

That is the point I am trying to make, do we want 2 or 3 pages of hand wringing over what might or might not be, if it said he was carried away in an ambulance...then I would panic......he walked away, so probably jarred it....as I said watching training so often...slight problem and you are off.....he'd be [censored] off because he wants to do the full preseason....doesn't want Roos having any excuse not to play him

Not saying this applies to Hogan but a mate who does sports science used to say to me that when they scream in agony as if they were dying, it's usually not severe knee injury. When they feel a little discomfort like a bit of a strain, the medicos start to worry about a knee reco.

As I said, this is just a theory.

It's true. Very true. Pretty much spot on from what I have experienced in my footy career.

Though in Hogan's case, let's just say you have no idea what your talking about and it's absolute nonsense.

Any other reports coming out of training [apart from Hogan's injury]?

All we need now is for Roosy to be eaten alive by a game park lion in Africa!!! :)

The curse of '65 still exists until the club becomes strong enough to break it

Apparently Roos is currently in Hawaii before heading back.... but knowing our luck he still could get eated by an African Lion whilst visiting the Honolulu Zoo!!!!

Desperate for info on Hogan i thought i'd check Bigfooty to see if there was any info (which i hadn't before such is my concern). Read this post

'According to a poster on Demonland Jesse might have done something to his knee.'

and this post in response:

'Nothing from the news.com.au article or anything on twitter. Most likely made up.'

Sorry, but this is utter nonsense.

He obviously watches far too much soccer

The first post on BigFooty is mine. Would there even be journos there to write an article about it?

The seriousness of the injury should have little to do with his reaction. How many times have we seen players go down with what looks to be a seriously bad injury only to see them come back on the next quarter?

Conversely, a close friend of mine tore his ACL, PCL and meniscus which is one of the more severe knee injuries and he was only limping.

We don't know. We can only pray.

And pray I will.

Here it is for those not able to open the link:

SHUDDERS went through the Melbourne camp on Friday when promising youngster Jesse Hogan left the training track with what appeared to be a nasty looking knee injury.

The 18-year-old forward landed awkwardly after a marking contest and limped off the track in obvious pain.

Despite early concerns, Hogan has since been cleared of serious knee damage.

"Jesse had an incident at training today where he jarred his knee. He has since been cleared of any major damage," Melbourne football manager Josh Mahoney told AFL.com.au.

The Dees believe Hogan will be sidelined for 1-2 weeks with the injury.

    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
