Did I mishear or did he say his back was a bit tight / sore before the Geelong game?

Yep. I'm not going to crucify our fitness staff over it. They are highly trained doctors and physios, that can't stop guys playing every time one has a stiff back.

Salem looked surprisingly solid. Hogan said he is hoping to be back round 2 or 3 but can't lock anything in because they don't know

How can Hogan be 'back' when he is yet to play a game?

I am concerned re the being mentored by Byrnes comment...

I'm not. Byrnes is a good guy. Came from a successful team. Still knows how to get to the right spots. Is still capable of tackling and some of the other hard stuff. If Byrnes is giving him lessons on kicking I'd be down right angry but I doubt he would be.

I heard talk Cripps was about 191cm pre draft but now has shot up even more to about 194cm.

Probably now a question whether he's too tall to be a midfielder. At the minimum I'd advise Carlton to take a long time with him. Midfield minutes in that big a frame could result in injury

It amazes me, because when I saw Cripps play for WA v Vic Metro on a HBF I'd have guessed he was no more than 188cm.

The kid has grown a lot in a short time.

Yes very very disappointing to hear. Why the club would fly him up to Alice and play with a tight back is a utter joke. Should have just rested him plain and simple.

This is starting to mount on top of the lack of information on our injured players. Maybe our medical team needs to seriously pull their fingers out of their ass and start looking after our blokes properly

Or maybe he didn't tell anyone.

Footballers do that.

No he didn't.

A poster on here - TGR - noted he was having his lower back rubbed prior to the Geelong game at a training session.

The club played him and it was evidently the wrong call.

It happens.

We don't know when the tightness showed up.

It could have been as he ran onto the ground for the warm-up, but at that stage it was just a bit of discomfort out of the blue.

Hence telling a trainer and getting a rub before the match began, maybe it went away and they assumed it was fine?

Jumping to conclusions with not much evidence is not a wise move.

Criticise when it is deserved.

i missed the footy show tonight. Is it true they didnt mention the passing of Dean?

NOT TRUE. They did have a tribute to him leading into an add break. Was only short but a tribute all the same

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
