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.

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.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
