Demon Injuries 2017 season

Featured Replies

We just have to find a way to scrap it out and get over Carlton, I'm sure the team will steel themselves and Goody will have some specific tactics. Let's not write the year off yet!!

Yep, got it wrong during GC game. I suppose thats what 52 years supporting this club does to you. Yeah i could be positive and say we will win next weekend, but the realist in me says otherwise. And i think if you polled all of the posters on this site most would agree. A "horrible supporter", Wiseblood? No, one thats just seen it all way too many times before

Everyone is making a contribution for the never ending reason.

J. Ralph (Fox) saying Viney out until R19.  Didn't indicate that this was a 'post scan' prognosis, so maybe just guessing.

Yup, any win over Carlton will do.

A 1 ;point win with a 40-39 scoreline would be nothing to complain about. Just get the 4 points. If anyone whines cos we struggled to beat them in a scrappy game I will lose my [censored].

Just get the 4 points,  another step to finals.

Carlton were solid against adeliade. Unless we have atleast 2 of our players back I fear the worst.

 

is there a timeframe for Viney?

The 4 to 6 that MFC is so used to. 

So just 7 of our top 10 players out then?

wtf!! Can we catch a friggen break!?

I think we are cactus with injuries

Viney could be season

Tyson could be season

Jones another 3-4

Watts maybe 1 or 3

Goodwin said Garlett, Hogan and Watts all a chance on Friday night. Watts seemed to counter that, but that still leaves the other 2 as a big chance.

Any articles pop up over the weekend about Tysons injury? I can't find anything.

Thnaks for any help in advance.

Someone posted earlier Tyson 1-2 weeks with knee bruising only. That Larkins doctor was on  3aw earlier today with the news.

Injuries have ruined our season.

I reckon we'd be on 2 losses max, had we not lost Gawn and Hogan for most of the season, and now Jones, Viney, Salem, Tyson, Jeffy and Watts. That is a disastrous injury list, and one no club would recover from.

We'd be lucky to win 1 out of the next 4 matches without basically our entire midfield. Oliver and Trac look exhausted, and Gawn will take a while to get back to full flight. It might be time for Lewis and Vince to step up in the middle.  

Time for them to step up, full stop.  

Leadership void after young Viney left the field.  

We just need to hold firm.  We will 2 out of the next 4 and then hopefully everyone will be back and we can make a run for the top 4. 

viney had op today. out 4-6 weeks

Jack Jonesy Viney?


When is Missons injury update?  All eyes on Garlett and Hogan who seem the only guns with a realistic shot to return this week.

Quote from the MFC website:

“Dom had an incident with his knee on the weekend,” Mahoney said. “He’ll be assessed early in the week, and his availability for this round will be known later in the week.”

Channel 7 news said Watts won't play.  But we expected that.

More likely to come back for the Port game I'd say.

MFC had an unbelievably injury free 2016 season. I knew it would come back to bite us.

 

Yep, if we had the same injury as last year I would almost have us as a premiership favourite.

We'd be undefeated. That said this raises questions about depth. Kent, Kennedy, Trengove, all fighting for their careers and need to step up. End of story.

Just driving past training and stopped in. 

Jack Watts doing rehab running over about 40-50m at about 1/3 pace.

I'd say he's quite a few weeks from playing.:(

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
