    did jimmy have an op to remove appendix or are they just treating it with antibiotics?

    According to Misson's injury report, he had surgery to remove the appendix.

    ok, then 4 weeks to recover from stomach surgery is not unusual

    Appendicectomy these days is laparascopic.

    Sets you back badly if the appendix is very gangrenous ... severe nausea apart from the abdominal pain.

    I wasn't even allowed to drive for 2 weeks after mine.

    understand maurie. i had a small umbilical hernia repaired laparascopically.

    no complications but i couldn't have returned to strenuous exercise involving the stomach for four weeks let alone what would be expected of an afl player

    anyway, i don't find 4+ weeks surprising after a stomach operation (lap or not)

    Sounds like all things good! Hogan back v the Lions?

    Thats 18 days away

    Zero chance of him playing vs LIons, but he may play at Casey that weekend for his first game back

    The Toump wont come back in red and blue this year now ...seriously doubt it. It's one thing getting back on your feet, whole different thing being match fit for AFL

    its not like we really really really need him ( miss him )...is it :unsure:

    yep sounds like it might be two weeks later vs GWS at the MCG, that will give him 3 games for the year

    unless of course the club is talking carp again

    • 2 weeks later...

    We seem to be the only team to not update their injury list this week. In fact, we haven't updated it for 2 weeks. This couldn't be a deliberate thing could it?

    God only knows mrtwister.

    Deliberate

    Hmm I have no idea what it would achieve.

    Probably just some one not doing their job.

    Evans Test

    Cross Test (posting good GPS numbers in training, thursday session will decide if he plays.... not mentioned if straight into seniors or via Casey)

    King Test

    Byrnes Season

    Trengove Season

    Spencer Season

    Hunt Season

    Hogan out of rehab group but approximately 3 weeks away from playing to gain fitness and conditioning. May decide not to play him this year and focus on preparation for next year, but ultimately sounds like its up to Jesse... if he wants to play they'll try and get him out there.

    *Toumpas not mentioned.

    From Dave Misson injury report on Melbournefc website.

    The secrecy could be a major tactic in the battle for the coveted 16th spot on the ladder.

    Was thinking more along the lines of Jesse's timeframe.

    Going by the notion that no news is good news, that would suggest an updated injury list is bad news.

  • Quote

    Might just be a case of... he's probably in good enough shape to play, but the club want to be overly cautious and hold him until next year.

    Thus, the only way he debuts is at Jesse's request, not the club's. Roos said as much in his presser today.

    Fair enough, too. If getting on the park overcomes an important mental barrier for the kid after two years, I'd say he should go for it. If it's not a big deal to him, it's safer to wait for pre-season and hit the ground running in 2015.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
