Try running or jumping with a stuffed toe and see how you go. Its a delicate injury that takes time to get over.

The overreactions are hilarious.

Yes, the overreactions are just weird.

We need look no further than Jack Trengove's situation to know how delicate foot issues are.

I hope Frost takes as long as is necessary to be 110% OK before coming back.

Looking at the selected teams for the AFL and VFL for this weekend, it would appear that our stocks are improving considerably.

With 16 players named out at Casey on top of the 22 playing today for the Demons, our injury list is down to 6:-

* the trio who are out for the season and

* Dean Kent

* Christian Salem, and

* Sam Frost

Things are looking up for a better finish to the season than last year.

Frost was 4-6 on May 8th! So what's with the 4-6 call today?

Broken toe was the initial injury as I remember.

Foot injuries are shocking things to get over.

With our luck the operation will have failed and he will start taking photos.

They meant 4-6 weeks, until they can call it another 4-6.

Can't be bothered to trawling through the posts, but I do wonder how many of those who are berating the club for caution on Frost's foot are also the ones who castigated the club for supposedly rushing Trengove back enabling an aggravation of his injury, though undiagnosed (and quite possibly undiagnosable) at the time

Just saying..........

* and that photographer guy too

I don't think I have read anyone saying he should be back Playing.

IMO People are concerned / amazed at how long he has been out and there does not seem to be any improvment.

They are keeping Frost in cotton wool for round 23 when he will be unleashed against his old team GWS and kick 8 goals in a Demon win

Good to see our injury list down at this time of year. Kent might get in 5-6 afl games and Salem 4-5 towards the end of the year. Would actually like Frost playing for a couple of games in the 2s. Could be good for Casey finals!

Again wtf is Misson doing? Frost was listed as 4-6 over 8 weeks ago now. FCS, send him to the Richmond doctor, then we'll get a more accurate reading.

Needed a trademark response.

In case you were not aware, Missen isn't an orthopaedic / foot surgeon. Not even a doctor.

So, what do you expect him to do with a broken foot / toe?

Speaking of the photographer anyone see him lately?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
