Was he subbed out? Anyone notice when it happened?

Or did he play the game out?

Must have been a good 21st...

    I thought Michie was really good towards the end of last year. Can kick the ball and find the footy in tight, seems as though his form has carried on through VFL too.

    Get him in there coach!

    Shame, cos we are seriously lacking midfield depth.

    Is Mckenzie the closest to a like for like replacement?

    I thought Michie would be the next cab of the rank, but if they want to tag Dangerfield maybe McKenzie

    Get him on to the Bone Broth Crossy! Helped you out!

    Gutted for him, he was just showing consistent form and I was looking forward to returning to bulldoze some more Crows this year.

    Michie comes in for me, sounds like he's had pretty consistent form with Casey and he's a tough body replacement. Toumpas is another chance but different players, plus I'd like to see him dominate a couple of weeks before takes the step up again.

    We still have the smallest injury list in the league. Disappointed for Viney but some of the reactions on here are way over the top. It's also a good chance for Brayshaw to step up in his absence.

    Either way.. Brayshaw surely must start now!

    was my veiled reference in other thread... necessity might advance his cause here. Might be the beginning on something. ..as opposed cameo that is

    The eagles have lost Brown and mackenzie for the season, Collingwood lost sidebottom for 8 weeks, North lost dal santo for 8-12 weeks...... get over it ppl!

    This is why our club is so pi$$ weak, we always have a sad anytime one player gets injured. It's football! We will get key injuries all the time!

    Great opportunity for Michie to come in and cement a spot!

    I think the happy police can deal with it surely.

    why did you have to make my day even worse Curry? Show a bit of sensitivity please.

    We have had a relatively a good run with injury so far this year, just a pity it happened to be one of the small handful who have strung 2 good games together.

    Yep, Viney was looking great in both games. Hard at it, great tackles and much better disposal than last season.

    Gutted.

    For the first "start of season" in how many years?

  • Quote

    I know we only have a small injury list at the moment.

    But we do seem to get injuries to more best 22 players and rarely to our 'depth' players it seems.

    Bugger.

    I'd want Brayshaw for a full game over Riley/Michie/Mckenzie.

    l'd play all 4

    If you're going to break a leg, 4-6 weeks is an absolute best case scenario!

    Yes it's a terrible shame that a young gun will miss a month, but gee, we have a very, very healthy list overall. Let's hope that whoever comes into the team to take Jack's place is in-form, hungry and determined to keep that spot!

    (This thread is a far cry from the hysteria following the NAB challenge match against Essendon)

    It cant be too bad a fracture.

    He was probably more aware of it as a local soreness that crippling pain. Had scans and lo and behold...tis a break me lad. But what kind ?

    If he can keep the atrophy to a minimum he may well be back training in 4

    watch this space I guess

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
