If either had an issue they wouldn't be allowed to take part in both tackling and wrestling drills which they did today

Both also did every drill and the whole session

Yes they would. The FD obviously thinks Viney can play with his injury, so he can certainly train with it.

You mean like when Jones sat out the 2015 season with a neck issue?

That's just bizarre   so Viney couldn't be playing a different role, he is carrying an injury that restricts him   tell you what I'll ask him next week   I have a 50/50 chance of getting the truth

Any chance, if you get that truth, you won't broadcast it all over the internet for opposition teams to discover and take advantage of?

You do realise players and clubs keep the specifics of injuries secret for good reason, right?

Jack is perfect and above criticism, we get it. 

I am desperately hoping it's an injury and not a combination of that and extra pressure from being captain.

The strong push for JKH is because he was tearing it up in the preseason and did very well last week . Quick and skilled.

As for Kent it wouldn't be disciplinary if he didn't train,so must have a niggle.

I do realise that precious hence why there is very little I am told put on here

The opposition know anyway due to the spies they all have at the scan place at AAMI including the one that used o post in here, can't remember his user

And Channel 7 have a reporter camped at Edwins the Monday after games

If any posters think the burden of captaincy is getting to Jack, to quote the mighty DD, delusional

He himself said the other day his form is just solid at the moment and he needs to lift

Well if he thinks his form is solid I would hate to see his version of Shizenhuisen! 

And on Bernie .... What a tough player. Well done Bernie PF Loves wounded warriors!

Well 26 possies with 13 contested and about 8 tackles, plus a pressure mark and goal to put the team in front is a reasonable afternoons work.

Some (minor?) speculation in today's HUN that Hibberd may not play:

"will make his debut for the Demons if he can overcome a stiff back, which troubled him yesterday at training ........"  and

"The former Essendon defender, .................... completed the slippery session despite obvious discomfort."

I expect someone saw him having a back massage, and invented the rest.  Any sign of "obvious discomfort" , Saty?

I'm certain you are told nothing significant by the club.

You're no doubt treated with respect by the club, as they appreciate the efforts you make to attend training, but an insider you aint.

Any Mods keen on running a "self congratulator of the year" award similar to 1116 SEN's here? ?

evidentley he was nailed with an opponents stud through his boot in the 1st quarter of the geelong game. so he's toughed it out for pretty much two games.

I now forgive Mr Vince for not looking to STAB pass the ball inside 50 in the last few seconds of the dockers match. The only option was the torp! All makes sense now ?

Sounds like we bought an injury prone lemon.

Well I am surprised that I still get surprised. Why are people still having a go at Saty?

I quite enjoy his comments but if you dont like them don't read them the constant attacks on give me the Tom [censored].

Get over it people.

So if I were to mention my residual dissapointment in Saty losing his grand daddy beard....would that count OD? ?

VERY VERY Happy with the rest of his work!!!

I was at jack Vineys place the other day, hiding in the bushes, saty can verify that I was there, anyways turns out jack is carrying an injury, when I asked him he said " who the [censored] are you!? [censored] off!? 

So you saw through my disguise as a cute but slightly weather worn garden gnome  damn     

I did see Jack leave the house with a parcel,  perhaps the injury was in there

Yet you stay silent with his constant attacks on other posters.

Hypocrite.

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
