We only see or hear (reports and thanks to those that do) about the 1 to 2 hour sessions open to public 3 times a week, mentioned heaps, training indoors, different locations.. I am also reading plenty of media on other clubs with major injuries, Adelaide a good example, our Col Garland is the main issue reported..

Mitch Clark a foot problem and been through rehab and he says it's OK, I believe.

Had a hamstring issue prior to Xmas and now taking care and on his way back and raring to go..

Round 1 can't come quick enough, fairly sure we are going to find it very hard to pick a side with so many available

Mitch has repeated positive tweets about his readiness for the start of the season.

Today he thanked supporters who attended training and stated 'I can't wait' .

Whilst he wasn't in the main training group he was running freely so yeah it will be good to see him playing at the start of the season.

We all know what a fit Mitch Clark and a fit Chris Dawes can do for the club. We also know that we need them ready and firing for Round 1 on 22 March. It's no disaster then if they each play part of the 28 February NAB Challenge v Geelong and follow that up with most of the practice match on 8 March v Hawthorn. I think it's fair to expect that Jesse Hogan would be available for those games as well as perhaps the first NAB Challenge or at least a half.

It seems to me that the coaches and fitness people are managing the loads to individual specifications and this is borne out by a couple of experienced sports medicine people with who I discussed their situation.

and we all know what it does to not have a full and complete pre sesason under you belt in this day and age of footy

Some of our most prized players are not completing pre seasons.......just saying ( or simples for rpfc )

Moon, yep and he would be wearing the boot if he had foot problems. He isn't.

Mitch was up and running prior to Christmas so he has been doing more that gentle running. Hammy problems brought on by compensation in running technique because of the past injury are not unusual so he is now being managed a bit more carefully.

Interesting - think someone pointed out on another thread that he'd been doing slightly heavier work than I'd realised, which is fantastic.

Are you sh*tting me? Mitch Clark saying his foot's fine is no more valid than your thoughts on the matter?

Are you being serious right now? Are you mental? Do you need medical assistance?

edit: [censored] up the quote.

No need for that kind of abuse. But, if you're going to get into that, I'll ask you - can you read??

I don't really have 'thoughts' per se on Mitch's foot and I certainly haven't claimed to be an authority on it.

All I've said, fairly consistently, is that I'll believe he is right to go when I see it, which I hope is quite soon. I don't place much store in what he says about it, nor what you, I, hogans_heroes or the club medical staff say about it. I'm just looking for some physical evidence and, as I say, I'll be stoked when/if we get it!

Anyone in their right mind would prefer both dawes and clark doing all the training, and Hogan of course. Certainly as it stands the situation is far from ideal, will his foot hold up to the rigours of a full season

Their is a lot of talk about clark's foot, he does have another one you know...just sayin

Feet only work successfully in tandem! One on their own is like Abbott with no Costello, Groucho with no brothers, Barry Gibb on his own, Stanly, no Laurel, Moe, no Larry or Shemp! Where do I stop?

That would be Jake the Peg, with no Larry or Shemp.

They haven't played that film clip with Rolf in the big trench coat for some time.

The BBC must have lost it.

There are a range of performances available on YouTube, all as classy as ever:

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
