I think all players should take up surfing, paddling around in the cold waters of Victoria can only be good for the body and muscles.

interesting point you make. I wonder what the science is behind the affects of ocean water on the body and if it is beneficial? I think everyone believes its great for your skin to swim in the ocean but is there any science behind it.

Off to google I go....

    Minder was a great show.

    He never got hurt somehow.

    Obviously relieving to hear he is fine, but seriously, wtf. How unlucky can the bloke be?!

    Look at someone like Jones and I honestly can't remember him being in doubt for a game because of inury. He just doesn't get injured.

    Then you get a young promising talent who takes a year to get over a serious back injury, and upon return someone stands on his foot which is serious enough to require scans..

    All I can hope is that there is no trend emerging here.

    It's hard to relax with all the 'luck' we've received over the past few seasons.

    Your memory of Jones is incorrect:

    Nathan Jones wins a hard ball for Melbourne against the Swans on Sunday

    Jones sidelined for six to eight weeks

    Matt Burgan

    31 August 2010 5:27 PM

    NATHAN Jones will be sidelined for six to eight weeks after sustaining two fractured vertebrae and broken ribs.

    Jones suffered the injury during Sunday’s clash against North Melbourne at the MCG.

    He copped in a knee in the back from North Melbourne forward Aaron Edwards, during a contest.

    The hard-at-it Demon was immediately taken from the ground, playing no further part in the match.

    Jones spent two nights in hospital, before being released.

    Although it was a nasty incident, the tenacious midfielder remains in good spirits.

    The 22-year-old has played 92 matches, playing all 22 games in 2010.

    He has missed just four matches in four seasonsExclusive to melbournefc.com.au

    I'm fairly positive it's pseudo-science. Little more than an embarrassing coincidence that every AFL team does ocean water recovery sessions after matches.

    I was reading in a science book once the reason our blood tastes salty is because we originally came from the ocean

    Something to do with the salt content being good for cuts and scratches. The stuff to do with muscle recovery I'll leave to the pros, but there's definitely evidence for water being a low impact way of exercising.

    I'd say that the salt content, combined with the muscular effect means that teams hit the beach for recovery. They could probably do it in a pool, but it's a good team outing and a decent way to relax after a match when you don't want to be at the training ground. That's without mentioning how refreshing ocean air can be for tired bodies and minds.

    • 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.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      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?
