The continuing saga of Melbourne's injury list - 2014

Featured Replies

But he's progressing through his rehab! Lol

 

Seems like the medical staff are so cautious these days that, if the guy has a runny nose, he's put on ice as a precautionary measure, and told to rest for "two to three". Have to wonder if they've taken it just a tad too far...

were probably shooting for priority pick.....getting in early

once we get rid of that scoreboard it'll be a doddle

Not another tanking inquisition.

There's a scoreboard WYL would like to get rid of.

Heard Dawes will be at least 3 weeks. Continued pain after any form of exercise. Maybe we need to recruit another key forward in this years draft.

Maybe!

I would say certainly

Dawes: He's a professional footballer, I'm sure the last thing he wants is to spend his time watching his teammates take the field without him.

Frustrating for all concerned.

 

Not another tanking inquisition.

Well it has all the signs Redleg

Playing players out of position

Players out for a week that turns into months

Three KPF' s kept on the side lines for weeks

Playing Pedersen and Byrnes continuously

Missing shots at goal from thirty metres out

Losing to St Kilda when every scribe in the land thought we should win.

Need I go on

Tanking for sure.

Wow I feel much better knowing we are not really trying this year.

Who is the best bet for pick no.1?

When will the MFC ever get a break???

We recruit 2 kpp pay $$$ ... Can't get them on the park!

Trade our early picks for Hogan ... Can't get him on the park!

We are Jinxed!

It does tend to look that way

So what IS the code for "50/50"?

Will play next wk!!!!

I'd be lying if I said the key forward situation wasn't seriously starting to grate on me. I'm trying to be patient, trying very bloody hard, but it's just ridiculous the luck we've had.

At this stage, I'm leaning towards Dawes being a mistake.

So damn filthy at our luck with these guys. So much promise, sitting in the stands, or not even that.

End rant. Sorry fellas. Had a gutful atm. I think Saturday is still burning in my gut.

Tension Myositis Syndrome - that's whats causing both Dawes and Hogans issues. Always is, when, as Misso puts it... there are "symptoms" without a cause.

Unfortunately it's not accepted by traditional medicine and therefore they have to keep trying to fix what isn't broken.

Frustrating.

You are not alone P-man

Dawes could well become an enduring symbol of the Neeld era!


Dawes is the only one I am confident we will see on the park any time soon of the trio we expected to be our star trio.

As such it's hard to call him a bust.

Clark as we all know is on the LTI, and Hogan...well, it's just 'us' - NSC strikes again!

It's going to be another very long year.

Do you mean "not see" DA

No key forwards for the next 3 weeks, losses to GWS, Carlton and Gold Coast are certain. 0-5, great way to start the year.

Can we bring back the Ox?

Even with his knees he would be worth putting him in the forward line.

Listening to Missons injury report is like listening to a politician during election time

We all know pollies are full of [censored]!!

and to start another coach's tenure

Geez it's bloody hard as a paid up member to hear this injury khrap every doom and gloom year.

Gutful of this with so called elite bloody athletes.

Gutful of club feeding members supporters garbage reports. Just tell the bloody truth.

In a very time crucial period for this club we have a non existent forward line, WTF is going on?

The Eagles can manage to keep all their talls on the park, WTF is this club doing so bad with its fitness program?

Patience is totally screwed with this.

 

From what Roos said in his pressor Gawn will be back, TMac out(won't come up from injury), Fitz to stay in and Viney another wk in the reserves.

Will c what happens at selection.

One things for sure I am not bothering with Missons reports, they r a waste of space.

He's not a gamebreaker in any case. At his best he only scored 30 goals in a year. If he gets on the park it will give us a big target but he ain't no Mitch Clark that could kick65-70 in a season.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
