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.

 
 

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


Injury List 4-4-17

Colin Garland (knee) – season

Michael Hibberd (Achilles) – 1-2 weeks

Liam Hulett (hip) – 1 week

Mitch King (knee) – 3 weeks

Pat McKenna (hamstring) – 6-8 weeks

Joel Smith (shoulder) – 3-4 months

Aaron vandenBerg (heel) – 6-8 week

 

seems to be getting better, we just need to get those that arent 'injured' match fit - Kent, Frost, Wagner etc.

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.

Didn't he break his arm not long ago?

He's back already?

"Jay Kennedy-Harris (arm) – available"

Surprised me too
Edit: Just listened to the video report. He and White both playing in VFL this week

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.

The injury list from the MFC site -

Melbourne injury list: round three

Angus Brayshaw (head knock) – available
Colin Garland (knee) – season
Michael Hibberd (Achilles) – 1-2 weeks
Jesse Hogan (suspension) – 2 weeks
Jay Kennedy-Harris (arm) – available
Liam Hulett (hip) – 1 week
Mitch King (knee) – 3 weeks
Jordan Lewis (suspension) – 3 weeks
Pat McKenna (hamstring) – 6-8 weeks
Joel Smith (shoulder) – 3-4 months
Aaron vandenBerg (heel) – 6-8 weeks
Bernie Vince (suspension) – available
Mitch White (ankle) – available

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
Jesse Hogan (suspension) – 2 weeks
Michael Hibberd (Achilles) – 1-2 weeks
Liam Hulett (hip) – 1 week

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.

oops  brain fade... It was Frost and Wagner that played.

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.

  • 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.
