The continuing saga of Melbourne's injury list - 2014

I was appalled to see Jesse Hogan hyperextending his back on a video clip shown on TV Channel 9 last night. That is the worst possible thing to do for anyone's back let alone someone with an injury. Who on earth has told him to stretch that way??

Is he injured?

Didn't he say he'd recovered from the injury and now just had to get his conditioning right?

Honestly, if you're going to troll, you need to try harder.

This is not trolling. Nobody should be stretching their back like that.

Oh ok, only 97% of your posts are then.

Anyway, I saw nothing wrong with the way he was stretching.

The fitness staff obviously saw nothing wrong with it.

Maybe you should pop down the club and offer your chiropractic expertise..?

I don't see why you are being unpleasant. I'm a doctor and I'm concerned that he has been given the wrong advice. I will contact the club directly.

Of music? Optometry, Biblical Studies perhaps Doctor of Practical Theology

I don't doubt your concern, but I think the club medicos have a better handle on Hogans condition than the rest of us.

Witch Doctor are you, statement or question?

Officially -

Chris Dawes (calf) – available
Colin Garland (ankle) – available
Max Gawn (hamstring) – test
Jesse Hogan (back) – 4-5 weeks
Viv Michie (jaw) – 4-6 weeks
James Strauss (foot) – available
Luke Tapscott (hamstring) – 1 week

With Max Gawn a possibility to return, that makes four blokes who could be available to play for Casey against Geelong. Almost worth the drive to the Fields.

And they're far more definitive about Jesse Hogan - instead of TBA, he's now a 4 - 5 week proposition which makes his back marginally better than Viv Michie's jaw.

It will be far more fun than the G on Saturday WJ

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    Captain Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen, make up the Top 5. Your votes for the win against the Eagles. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
