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.

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.

Roosy will have to line up at CHF soon enough. At least then his messages will get to the players.

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.

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

Not sure what you had for dinner h_h but I suspect it was liquid

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.

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?

    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.
