Really sad for JKH, he'd had an excellent pre-season and this is just rotten luck for him.

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.

Apparently Jack Viney went in for a scan too??

Viney had tape and a plastic guard over two fingers at the season launch the other night.

He said it was a flare-up of the earlier injury, but nothing to worry about. If he has had scans, I'd imagine it's just a precautionary thing.

JKH with a broken arm, out for four weeks.

vandenBerg with a foot injury, not sure how bad.

M Burgan has reported 6 to 8 weeks for JKH, poor kid!

I'd like to see Trengove tried as a half forward if fully fit. The guy is a great mark and a reliable set shot. With Vanders out great chance to see if he could play that role. 

I'll call Garland a sneaky chance to get a high half forward role.

On his hand/finger he broke last year. All good is the word.

 

Must have hurt it when he was head-butting the Carlton player in the hand ...

Had a scan on his jaw too I believe, thought it may have been fractured after he was laughing for hours on end after Marc Murphy tried to fight him.

Extremely, extremely doubtful.  We have depth in positions now, and I can't for the life of me see them "trying" a bloke in a position that he hasn't been training all summer for, especially when we have other more suitable replacements ready to go that have been training there.

Watts for VDB

Tyson for JKH

bwattoth are upgrades.

Watts for VDB a good thing, I like VDB but not in the  expense of Watts.

Like others have said, there are injuries and there are injuries. 

Not great for the players concerned, not great for depth, but barely a ripple on the best 22.

Hopefully Kent can play in at least one of the remaining two games (JLT or Casey) and mount a claim for round one.

i just love how the melbournefc.com.au website keeps its members up to date. FMD

 

Your problem DD is you expect club web sites to be more than positive spin.

They will get round to mentioning it however if you want all the news ASAP stay on Demonland.

How does a broken arm effect your running capacity? hopefully he will be able to remain fit enough to start games straight away.

Hasn't had a good run and is out of contract this year.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
