They make it so easy, my friend.  The same ones roll up every time.

Yeah I know.

But I can set my watch by you however.

At the 3rd stroke, Wiseblood will complain about negativity. beep, beep, beep

Unless he at least gets a run in the final Casey practice match (week before our first game) then he shouldn't play.

No more of this straight back in stuff without any match practice.

If we are going to be a serious threat for finals, we should have a list capable of beating Geelong without Viney.

Very misleading screengrab- he was on crutches last year and they’ve reused the footage.  95% of that interview had him walking and standing in his footy boots.

Ok, busted. 

I didn’t watch the clip ?

Back in training in a month.

Probably needs another month after that to play an AFL game.

Looks like round 2-4 to me. That's ok. Get him right for the full season.

Main group training is pretty different to just training in general. He's been doing running and ball work, just not contested contact work. He won't need a full month of main group training

I didn't know that was going to be the thumbnail used when I posted that otherwise I would have put a caveat it.

Will be very surprised if he lines up round 1, gives someone like Maynard a crack I guess 

Ducker will be breathing a sigh of relief.

'Lad', he's going to need at least that much main group training plus match practice.

He will need match conditioning & you don't get that doing circle work & gym.

Remember the Bombers of 99 without Hird. Good sides don't worry about who they haven't got they just worry about who they have got.

Time for others to step up. Jack will be back when he's ready and believe it or not we will be the better for it long term

I see your point, but I’d rather be the bombers of 2000 with Hird.

Time we had a post camp injury update from Misso, with some direct questioning from Burgs.  Did Jack suffer a setback at the camp?  What is the realistic timeframe for his return?

You have my vote and if we cannot win without him we can can forget finals. However we will win.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
