Viney has a knuckle injury doesn't he? Whilst having surgery suggests lengthy recovery time in order for the bone to fully heal, I imagine the risks involved in breaking it again are less than other areas of the body. 

He'd have to hit somebody again with his hand or someone would have to kick his knuckle or something for further setback.

I feel like it's super important for him to play this week for a must win game for us. He can miss next week because I can't see us beating the swans in any way. And then there's the bye so that's two weeks off.

Yes, I'm a doctor.

Viney plays.

 

He didn't break it hitting someone though, if that's what you thought?

Grimes' consistent form should be rewarded. 14 tackles along with another 25 possessions. For heaven's sake, he's earned a game. Seeing him get shat on at selection is starting to really bother me.

No chance of that.  He barely touched Smith and it was an open hand.  Complete joke of a report from a Hawthorn loving umpire.

SEN saying Cloke has been dropped~

What's with the old regime of teams being embargoed until 6:25 pm Thurs?  There's articles on MFC website today, indicating Oscar & Frost are both pretty much definites for Monday, and it's also been announced Viney & Kennedy are in our squad for Monday...

Has something changed?

Don't know Vagg.  The source for the Cloke change appears to be Cloke himself to a a reporter. If true, not always the Club's at fault.

But I think the coaches do interviews on Wed/Thur and its a bit hard for them to answer no questions.

Btw, Roos also said Dawes is playing.

Ok.. Im a big Michie fan more then anyone but you need to take you 'Viv Michie number 1 ticket holder fan club' hat off.

Grimes Kennedy Newton and ANB are far more better options then Viv. He played 1 qtr in the midfield against Port and that was in the last qtr.. He has no place in our midfield anynore. Even Wagner and Hunt are already ahead of him in the back half.

Sad because i like Viv but thats the reality. Whether your a cousin or family relative i think its time to start accepting that Viv will struggle to make it past this year.

Not a relative at all. Yes I am a fan of his and I think he is harshly treated and yo yo's in and out despite playing reasonably well in most games. Others seem to get selected week in week out on less but that's just my opinion Was certainly hard done by getting dropped two weeks ago. I agree he will probably go at the end of the season but it seems he is in the squad this week.

They said on the radio today that the pies would likely bring witts in to go up against gawn in the ruck. Then on 9 they just said cloke dropped. He kicked 7 in the corresponding game last year. Wow I was so worried he'd find form against us and kick straight and a big number. But did nayone see the contest that he shirked out of last weel? They showed it on footy classified. If it was Watts that did it it would have been everywhere and more spoken about it. 

Dropping Jeffy is interesting. But he did have a shocker last week.

    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.
