Not trying to be that "Mr Positive" guy but there were not too long ago a fair amount of players that were banging down the door of the selection committee and the only reason they weren't getting a game was because we were doing so well.

Nothing wrong with being positive.......as a Dees supporter its mandatory.

Let me guess, hamstring tightness?

Yep. I think if Hogan comes in,TMac  goes back and Frost has a rest.

 

I thought White was completely out of his depth. But, has he ever played competitively in the AFL or VFL at night before? And last Friday the weather was particularly brutal. (It might not have looked like it on TV, but it was probably the coldest night anyone playing out there had played in). I remember playing football as a kid (a long time ago now) and when it was cold, the ball hitting hands was incredibly hard. So, would White be a better player on Sunday in the daylight in normal winter weather conditions? I don't know the answer and I'm not sure we'll get a chance to find out, although in the last few years I don't recall us bringing in players just for one game. We seem to give everyone two or three chances first.


Will we be the first team this year to sit someone on Docherty? It's like he is a ghost that no-one can see.

Geez these 6 day breaks looks like they might kill our season 

Misson and his department have clearly struggled to keep the playing list in good shape as a result of these 6 day breaks. So many hamstring injuries.

Hogan appears to be in everyone's ins but I read he's far from a certainty.

I've hardly seen them play but Liam Jones is nearly AA fullback they say.

Even Gibbs is getting a kick.

Gawn joked last week in regards to worrying about our injuries when we actually get down to 20 available. It's not that far off at the moment.

Carlton are still $2.40 with Sportsbet might come in once injuries are announced 

I never bet on footy, but these odds are tempting.

They should be about $1.40.

Just to clarify for everyone - the article mentioned some hamstring tightness in the second term before he played out the game. At no stage does it say Frost is doubtful for this week. Well done on making stuff up.

I already jumped on at $2.85 yesterday so they have come in a bit already 

I know injuries are a part of football, but thanks to the AFL with giving us a 6 day break we have lost a lot of our players, this makes me so p$*$^% off.

Not happy!

Not sure how you can blame Mission and the fitness department. Not his fault the AFL crucified us with 4 weeks of short breaks plus the biggest road trip in footy. 

Short of literally pulling players out of matches, what could he have done? 

We had a light training load for this period of time, but our game style combined with these short breaks, is something he can't control. 

Plus Viney's injury seems to be a recurrence, rather than something new, and Tyson is an impact injury.

Here's hoping the Blues get to at least that magical lead of 24 so you can have the best of both worlds.

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
