    Not good, but if his foot was half stuffed all year better it going now than on the eve of finals. This must have been a calculated gamble for him to carry it instead of having surgery earlier.

    He will be back for the Carlton game. In fact I heard that he has asked the AFL to bring the game forward to tomorrow.

    So who's the person who put Kryptonite in Jacks footy boot?

    He'll be cherry ripe for the finals.

    All good.

    I suspected as much cheezus really down on mid strength. If and it now is a big IF we make finals we should have a competitive squad at this time. I'm not that confident at this stage 4-5 Wins may be beyond us, given injuries to key playersl!

    We're still better than Carlton.

    He'll get onto Daniel Cross's special remedy he used for on I think it was a broken arm. I think it was a 4 week injury and he came back in 2!

    Yep.  A team of clydesdales won't keep Jack off the park once he gets past the point of risking further damage ........ and given that he's been battling the injury all year, there's every chance that he'll come back better than ever.  Just imagine how good that would be in a final!

    PS.  Jonno Brown (OTC) seemed very confident that Jack won't miss more than 4 weeks.

    So if this is an injury that he's carried for most of the year, and 4 games in 18 days and a 6 day break back from Perth had the potential to make the injury worse, and he also had a sore shoulder from the week before, why wasn't he rested for the Sydney match?

    Was this injury worsened as a result of Viney being tripped up, and i thought Max was tripped as well about the same time? Anyone see anything?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
