Does Sam Frost have turf toes like Aaron Sandilands had a couple of years ago..?

IIRC Sandi had an indefinite return date for much of the season as it's a very difficult injury to get right.

Hard to see how Frost will play again this year. Probably Kent as well.

I can't see the club rushing back young players for a couple of meaningless games at the end of a non-finals season, given how conservative they have been with other players this year.

This list is different to the info coming from Misson in the latest injury report. vandenBerg 4-6 weeks,

Salem injured his good hammy at training, 4-6 away, Kent 6-8, and frost not even fully out of the moon boot yet. JKH and Dawes to train with Casey and then maybe play for them this weekend

Misson said Garland broke his hand in the first quarter and has had surgery - TBC

Salem 4 weeks after doing the other hammy

Vanders 3-4 week hammy

Kent 4-6

Frost much the same.

JKH and Dawes likely for Casey.

Petracca to have his first run in the next week.

Trenners has another scan late July before running is considered.

FARK.

Grimes in for Garland (inj)

Tyson for Vanders (inj)

ANB for Newton/M Jones (omit)

Garland had a great game, even better when you consider he played with a broken hand

No news on Viney = good news I hope.

Our injury list makes me so sad! :(

Our best 22 is a pretty good side, its our lack of depth that hurts us. We need to find at least two more players from other clubs that are clearly in our best side rather than fringe players such as Newton, Riley and Michie.

I Remember Garland holding arm and signalling the bench to come off. He went up the race but came back on so I assumed it was just a bruise. Some bruise! We can't take a trick on the injury front, we seem to lose a player in every game

Not having Salem available for probably another 6 weeks is shocking news. Kid is hard, has class and poise and uses it well, everything we need of half back.

Chris Dawes and Jay Kennedy-Harris set to return from injury through the VFL this week.

Meanwhile, Aaron vandenBerg will miss 3-4 weeks with a hamstring injury while Colin Garland will be sidelined (time to be confirmed) with a broken hand.

My father told me a long time ago AAC that thoroughbreds get injured donkeys run around all there lives with no problems.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
