Ok OCD... 

Melbourne injury (suspension)list: round 18
Christian Salem (hamstring) – test
Dom Tyson (knee) – test
Jack Viney (plantar fascia) – test
Jack Watts (hamstring) – test
Nathan Jones (quadriceps) – 1-2 weeks

 

Thanks Paul

The great thing about these 5 stars being back is they were all out for around a month or less so in theory they should not take too long to adjust and start playing strong footy - unlike Gawn and Hoges

fingers crossed no more injuries and the stars could really align for us and we could hit form at the right time

Nervous anticipation upon seeing the thread title. Relief upon reading the news. Guilt upon feeling relief. Finally arrive at sympathy for the player involved.

He'll play round 5, but obviously Jones doesn't want to discuss the health of his Father, which is obviously a concern to Jesse. That's the extent that needs to be read into it.

Would be very pleased to see Watts, Tyson and Viney back in the side this week.

Am a little concerned by how quickly Salem has gone from '2 weeks' to 'test'.  Given his injury history, especially recurring soft tissue injuries in rehab, I would expect the club to err on the side of caution and give him another week.  He's very important to the team and we risk losing him for the season if he pings it again.

 

Agree with several posters above- we're finally looking like getting something close to our strongest 22 on the park in the coming 2-3 weeks.  This thread has gone from doom and gloom to bright and sunny almost overnight!

I could understand Salem being held over for an extra week if Tyson, Watts and Viney are all available. Adding four players all at once who have all missed multiple weeks with injuries is itself a risk.

makes sense but would you start one at VFL for a half? Probably not as none have been out for a really extended period.

Perhaps Hogan would have benefited from a half at VFL level to blow out the cobwebs.

Anyone got any info on Max? He was supposed to be on 'AFL Game Day' this morning but has been replaced on show as has an ankle problem. Didn't go into any detail

Think he rolled his ankle. He did play out the game but looked sore,  likely had a jab to get him through the match.

Lotta love for Misson. Really business like, positive reports.

Those words would've got you shot down very quickly 2-3 years ago!

I feel confident Gawny will get up, I'd be comfortable with giving Jones another week. We've got the Giants after North so I'd rather him be right for them. 

We've had a very interesting year of injuries but with a bit of luck things could come right at the best time. I really hope I haven't put the mozz on us now!

We seem to have had our fair share of injuries (and hiccups in recovery) in recent years. This area of the club seems to have been relatively immune to changes and I haven't noticed any really improvement over the years. Teams that do well in finals typically go through years where they have good injury runs but I don't recall ever having such a year at the MFC.

Is there something more the club could be doing to become elite in this area? I suspect there is. Is Misson and his approach still a good fit for the club?

We had a good run last year!

I agree. Misson and co. should have reinforced Hogan's collarbone with a steel plate before he took to the field. Poor planning. And I hear the anti-oxidants in rooibus tea are good at preventing cancer. I don't know why they persist with water on game day.

Can whichever one of you nutters who took time out of your day and went to the trouble of writing to Misson about his mien please follow up with a missive requesting a chronologically-ordered injury list? Chur. 

It's an AFL thing, they do it for all teams in alphabetical order for some stupid reason.

So you’re telling me Kent is still a chance for the norm smith?

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
