    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

Mitch White was down as 2 - 3 weeks in the previous list but now no longer noted. Has he recovered or just been forgotten?

This week he was taken off the long-term injury list.

It sounds like he's back training and no longer considered injured.

Michael "1 to 2" Hibberd.

I hope we get to see him in the first half of the year.

From the AFL site .

"However, there is better news for key recruit Michael Hibberd who is slated to return from an Achilles complaint via the VFL against Williamstown on Easter Monday"

 Didnt Hibbard play a half last weekend?? Obviously something flared up...which is not a good sign. Weird though to talk about his return game after he already played it.

worst is that Vanders is out until round 10 (at least)

Good pickup DubDee - 2 weeks ago Vanders was "426" (groan) and a week later 6 and now 6-8 weeks.  Going downhill rapidly.

Hibbo seems to be coming good, slowly.

Bad luck Patty McKenna, glad to hear it didn't require surgery. Looking forward to seeing you on the park.

When you look at the list on the Melbourne website it looks huge - but they've included many who are now 'available' on that list.  This list doesn't look too bad with those taken out, and hopefully Hibberd is off that list by next weekend as well.

Available

Remarkable. By all reports he had a good preseason, but when he went down I had a sinking feeling it was curtains for JKH in the red & blue. Extended recovery and then regaining fitness before trying to force his way back into a loaded team. Available as early as next round is an excellent result. I'm still not sure he'll make it but good luck to the young man.

Obviously nothing. You needed to get confirmation of the question before making the assertions.

No, he didn't play.

It's only a little thing but I wish injury lists looked this with players "available" not listed and the players in order of how long they are expected to be out for:

Colin Garland (knee) – season
Joel Smith (shoulder) – 3-4 months
Pat McKenna (hamstring) – 6-8 weeks
Aaron vandenBerg (heel) – 6-8 weeks
Mitch King (knee) – 3 weeks
Jordan Lewis (suspension) – 3 weeks

I don't mind suspended players being there, maybe just call it "unavailable players" instead but it's good to have all the information neatly summarised.

On the injury list, only Hibberd would be in my best 22.  Joel Smith was so unlucky as he showed ability at the highest level. 

Hogan & Lewis obviously suspended.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
