Had a busy day and only now had the opportunity to go through this thread fully. It's clear that many posters here are fed up with the petty sniping going on in these training threads. Next time, ba

Just got back from training. No good news unfortunately. Firstly, Sam Frost grabbed for his hammy and went straight off. Had some treatment on the sidelines and left. Mentioned Petracca's injury in th

I didn't hang around long but I did see this. Went down like a sack of spuds holding his left knee (I think). Stayed down for a couple of minutes with a few boys giving him a pat on the back/head. The medical team checked him out for 5 mins, he tried to jog and turn on it but picked up his bag and hobbled back Inside. Mark Stevens just got there after but might have some footage of him walking off. To me it didn't look good but I'm no medic.

Going down in agony then pain completely subsiding after a few minutes is not a good sign at all.

Particularly don't like the sound of him trying to do a few turns and feeling unstable.

Ok, will get this out of the way first, Petracca went into a contest with Terlich, from what I can gather his left knee was pushed inwards and he felt something, the fitness staff and medicos were straight out to him, took him off after a while, being a young kid when he got back on his feet, went to test it, medical staff told him to just walk up and down, he did a couple of steps, hopefully just a hyperextension, took him straight off, assume for a scan, let's wait for the official....edit he did walk off, they didn't use the golf cart

Sam Frost pinged his hammy as well

Hopefully they took him straight up to Punt Rd oval to see the Richmond club doctor. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

If you do a level 2 or worse acl or mcl then a quick medical examination determines a rupture pretty quickly, there is a lot of instability.

If the doctors checked him out and told him to try some turns I'm hopeful that it's not a complete rupture.

Then again, who knows.

I had a complete rupture missed by two seperate physios. Hopefully mfc medical staff is of a higher standard.........?

That's just silly, it was a genuine contest

Frost just a ping, reported straight away, didn't look in too much discomfort, left early

Only Trengove , King, JKH and Jetta (who are both at Indigenous Camp) only ones missing

Lumumba did a little bit and left

Rehab as such White, Garlo, Vince, Neal Bullen, Howe and Fitzy

Watts and Hunt both joined in on some of the drills, emphasis on kicking and running again today

Average distance covered today by players 10k

Any questions feel free

Think it was very tongue in cheek TDI.

Thanks for the info!

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
