From Peter Ryan's twitter account

@AFL_petryan: As @barrettdamian reported on Footy Show @melbournefc waiting for scans to see how bad back injury is for Jesse Hogan.

May just be bruising. Not worried yet.

Paul Roos said he wouldn t play this week, but beyond that they dont know.

Huge blow for the Dees. Hogan out 6-8 weeks with stress fracture in his back.

May just be bruising. Not worried yet.

True hopfully that's what it is maybe 2 weeks.

I'm not worried. JKH to kick a Sean Charles style bag of goals on debut.

I think ill take up drinking

Is this the same injury Sylvia got in the Nab cup a couple of years ago?

In positive news, JKH just secured his round 1 spot!

Are we just Destin to never have a forward line.

No, it's the Kavorka!

HA come on people.... The season hasn't even started and the sky is falling.. Cheer up Charlie.

If not anything we are at least consistant.

Footage of the injury

I find it hard to believe that this has only just come up today and nobody at the club knew about it. He was named this afternoon in the squad to play on Saturday, therefore at that point he was considered fit having been through recovery and at least one training session for the week. I call this a rumour at this point.

Published, an hour ago. No mention of an injury at all.

I call BS on Barrett.

I'm glad our fate rests with a zero gamer. Jeepers, it's footy, blokes get hurt. Do you hear the cats sooking about vardy? Harden up, we will figure this out. Go Dees
