Difficult to see how he'd run laps withOUT a hamstring, Brendan!  (Preferably one in each leg...!)  Boom Boom!

Jeff's scan came back completely clear as reported in the club's injury update.  If he had a hamstring tear, he would not be running laps.   But he had / has hamstring tightness.  So it becomes a risk assessment as to whether the tightness dissipates sufficiently to be able to play, including running at full speed which is vital to Jeff's game.  I don't think he'll get up....

So, what exactly, is 'hamstring tightness'? Does this mean the muscle fibres have over-contracted but without causing damage? And how does the tightness dissipate? Just with time and perhaps massage, ice (or heat) and ultrasound? 


Pedo is fine

Hannan is fine

No Watts, got nothing when I asked

Garlett 50/50

Hoges said next week to everybody who asked including me

Viney is more than fine

White and Wagner trained with AFL side when they split at end of session

 

Summing up what I saw at training, I think our team this week will be:

FB

Jetta

Frost

Lewis

 

 

 

 

HB

Hunt

OMac

Hibberd

 

 

 

 

CC

Stretch

Oliver

Vince

 

 

 

 

HF

Petracca

Pederson

Hannan

 

 

 

 

FF

Kennedy-Harris

Hogan

TMac

 

 

 

 

Followers

Gawn

Tyson

Viney

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Interchange

Neal-Bullen

Wagner

Harmes

Melksham

 

 

 

 

Injured:    Jones, Brayshaw, Salem, Watts, Garlett 

Unlucky:  Joel Smith, Corey Maynard, Ben Kennedy, Tomas Bugg, Sam Weiderman, Jack Trengove (this list more than anything tells us about our depth).

 

Still not a bad side IMHO, certainly one capable of beating the current swans side.

Did the Weed train with the main group? I think maybe he will play and TMac will go to Buddy

No Hogan

Did Dion Johnstone train with the AFL contingent?

No, but means nothing, Hogan could be lying, he looks super fit, only additions to last weeks team seemed to be Wagner and White

At end of session 'Casey' team break away to have 10 min run together


Reporting just now on AFL website, that we have ruled out Hogan, Watts and Garlett. Concerning.

Just back from training.  Salient points:

- no Watts for the entire session

- Garlett joined Jones for run throughs on the boundary for the whole session.  Practiced a few snaps at goal but you'd think unlikely to come up

- Jones quipped that his quad was feeling significantly better than the previous session

- Hogan participated fully in the whole group session

- Kent looked sharp and up and about

- TMac doing lots of goal kicking practice

- Joel Smith training fully with the main group

- Hunt looked a bit flat, Pedersen looked a bit sore

Huge news. The forgotten man. Love to have him in form and banging down the door at the end of the season.

The mind games have just begun, been along time since we have been playing with the opposition and public's minds love it.

No he looked very tender. Not at all fit IMHO

When you think about it though, we won without all 3 last week. Watts and Hogan didn't play and Garlett did nothing all game due to injury. So an upgrade in Kent or similar might be better. Think positive man! hehe

Hopefully the Swans even the ledger and rule Tippett in.

The only problem being that we play the strongest Swans side of the season so far and basically at full strength and in form, with 6 wins in their last seven games, with us on a third six day break and having played in Perth last Saturday.

Then again we are having a red hot go, no matter who is in the side.

 

Ouch on all those outs. I was desperately hoping Watts would play this week, and Garlett is a massive loss in his current form.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
