John Meeson??? Wow ...

 

Pre-season starts now!

Okay, jumping the gun a little, but if he's starting running now, that bodes well for being in full running form by the beginning of actual pre-season. Exciting stuff.

And it means that 4 months away from pre season he can really gradually build his running up til Xmas.

I'm sure they will be reigning him back, I bet he will be trying to get out there asap.

If hes running now they should have him ready for a few Casey games and maybe an MFC debut at the tail end of the season. :):)

For a first year player, that's not a great idea and I'd be astonished if he were to play any sort of competitive footy this year.

The fact that he's running now is great but he's still miles off being able to perform any high intensity high impact sport..

His muscles surrounding the knee including the calf, hamstring, quad and glute need a huge amount of conditioning before he plays a match.

As stated by previous posters, it's great that he's running but he's still got a mountain to climb and we won't be seeing him this year. He's a first year player/kid.

I should have said I was kidding. Editing it with a smiley now

No. No. No.

Stupid idea, gradually build him so he does no hamstrings and builds his strength in his graft.

I actually hope he plays 1/2 game at casey development in their first practice match, builds to a few casey games early in their season and looks at a MFC debut 1/4 - 1/2 way though the AFL season.

Couldnt think of a worst possible thing they could do.

What benefit is it for him to rush into the end of the year to play a few meaningless games? Are people not realizing he is coming back from a serious knee injury and their is far great risk he could potentially re do his ACL again. You have to give these kind of injuries lots of time to recover and plus the strengthening that goes into it.

Plus Paul Roos will NOT allow this to happen

He did his ACL on the 16th of Feb.

So he's back to running in 4 months but to play in a game he'd have to be back within 6.5 months. That's completely out of line with any other recovery from an ACL in AFL.

The good news should be in his mental recovery as much as physical. If he gets through the rest of the season training he can probably take an end of season break with the rest of the players and whilst he'll be on a modified program he can start preseason with a focus to playing just like the rest of the group.

Man did you just get roasted for a joke. Cost of not ending it with obvious emoticons.


After his reco he said the surgeon had said he could play by the end of the season and then there was coverage of Roosy saying no way that was happening.

A very confident and rounded young man - oozes leadership. IF we can get him, AB, JH (and the other best 22s currently on the injury list) all up and running together we will look a whole lot better.

Something real to look forward to after all these decades of disappointment.

I know a quite a few people here have doubts on Missen, but I suspect that they will spend a lot of time on working on his quadriceps, his hamstrings, and doing a lot of straight line running, and not have him doing any twisting or impact work at all at least until the preseason.

It would be absolutely pointless risking him in lower level games for zero gain this year. Unlike many of his predecessors, he has a very well developed body and as soon as his knee has fully recovered he should be ready to make an impact at AFL level.

Going to have a few 'new' guys playing round 1, 2016. Trengove, Petracca and a couple of high draft picks. Oh, and of course Dangermouse.......

I'll pretend to be 'old dee' and say: "maybe, if we don't lose them to other clubs after a few more years being a cellar team". :o

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
