Exactly. No mention of injury on MFC website.

Why would they tell us they just let us hear off that ass wipe with a smirk on his face, why bother telling the paid up members.

At this rate Georgiou will play more career games for the MFC then Hogan Clark and Dawes combined.

I just love that this came from Barrett. Yet again our club is too spineless to properly report injuries

I dont really like this...but youre probably right :(

Not a chance he's returns in a month either. This will be a much longer recovery than that.

Yeah it makes you wonder if much has changed personally I would be surprised if it has and letting supporters find that out by a [censored] that we all despise is really disappointing but should be expected.

Where's Satyriconhome to put some context and truth around this?

What if there's nothing to report?

Would you prefer they announce today that he is having scans and may have back stress fractures, only to say tomorrow that they jumped the gun and it is only bruising..?

(Besides the obvious result being different).

Some people just don't think.

Settle down people this is players body we are talking about. He has to get a scan and in to see a specialist before a proper prognosis is made. Even then some times you can't make any comment until a repeat appointment or scan once inflammation has settled.

The media can just report whatever they like about 'some kind of stress fracture' and 'some swelling'. The club has to think of the player not just fans. Also they can't create mass hysteria every time a player has some soreness.

Geelong have been a completely closed shop under Neil Balme and it hasn't stopped them winning games.

Hope your right what time did training finish today would they even know the results yet?

So Saty chatted to Hogan after training and he was actually getting a massage from Mark Neeld and Chris Connolly because they are great blokes when Cam Schwab walked in and tripped over Liam Jurrah who was just siting down after doing some training for his comeback to AFL. Schwab trying to get his balance dropped the projector he was carrying to film whiteboard wednesday that landed on Hogan's back and caused him some pain. Dr Bates is going to arrange for Steve Dank to supply some AOD cream and he should be right for round 1. It's all in the past and no one is to blame so we should move on.

I don't know how AFL clubs work and presume they get a lot of priority access and things but it's not unreasonable to think:

- Hogan pulls up not too sore after the game

- Gets a bit sore Monday. Doc and Physio think it's just a knock in the back and will settle.

- Things aren't better on Thursday so they send him in for a scan but still name him not expecting much. Scan results get back later in the day (and leaked to Barrett).

- Specialist appointment booked in either late Thursday or Friday and only then can the club really comment with any surety.

I'd rather work out how it's leaked to Barrett. Could be as simple as Hogan telling a friend who spreads it to media or could be someone in the clubs a bit leaky.

You have no idea whether he is really injured. If he is really injured, you have no idea of the severity of the injury. MFCSS!!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
