With this quick turnaround and extended squads plus players being "dropped" at Casey I have lost track of the injuries.

Is there an official updated list since the April 10/11 posted above.

Thanks

Thanks.  Very disappointing. 

Well hopefully not the same side as his major one last time. 

Ch7 are reporting Petracca still in hospital having had more surgery on his finger.?

Edit - added this Ch 7 update.

 

Get well quickly! Club is confident he will play vs Saints on Sunday.?

Edited by Lucifer's Hero

Ch7 clearly not reading the original article http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-04-26/petracca-to-miss-due-to-dog-bite

Misson said Petracca would be monitored over the next few days, but was set to miss just one week.

“The doctor felt it needed a decent wash-out in surgery, and the important thing is that the wound needs to stay open for three days to guarantee that that infection’s gone before they stitch it up,” he said.

“Unfortunately, those three days coincide with the game, and the doctor actually wants him to stay in hospital over the weekend, just to make sure that the infection’s gone.”

Today is Monday, so once the infection's gone, the finger is stitched back up. Seems part of the routine from what I can see.

In other injury news Lynch from GC out for at least 4 weeks. Shame for him. Good news for us.

That said Oscar would be disappointed not to get a crack at him and try and add Lynch to the notches on his belt.

The MFCSS voice inside of my head can't decide whether he'll have a miraculous recovery in time to return for our match or whether his replacement will have a blinder. 

The glass is never full. ?

And hopefully Steve May misses more than the 1 week.

Is Lan glands the name of the condition?

Bruce is a huge out for us for historical reasons. :P

 

Is the only name i recognised. I agree historically he's a nuisance. I don't rate him particularly.

Roberton has played well against us in the passed 2 games. Big out for them

Dave Missions' list is a bit longer, has the following additions!

Dean Kent (hamstring) - 4-5 weeks

Mitch King (elbow)- 5 6 weeks

Lachlan Filipovic (managing loads) - 2 weeks

Corey Maynard (hip) - 8 weeks

Harley Balic (foot) - 2 weeks

 

The whole injury list is here:

Harley Balic (plantar fascia) – 2-3 weeks
Lochie Filipovic (rested) – 2 weeks
Jesse Hogan (knee/ankle) – test
Dean Kent (hamstring) – 4-5 weeks
Mitch King (elbow) – 5-6 weeks
Corey Maynard (hip) – 6-8 weeks
Pat McKenna (hamstring) – indefinite
Christian Petracca (finger) – test
Christian Salem (thumb) – 1-2 weeks
Aaron vandenBerg (ankle) – 4-6 weeks
Jack Viney (foot) – 1-2 weeks

It's certainly getting longer which is not a good thing, but the positive is that outside of Hogan, Trac and Viney they aren't really best 22 players.  And those three won't be on the list for much longer as well.

Forgot about Kent and Balic. Did not know about Maynard.

Starting to believe in this Norm Smith Curse thing.

Balic has been out for 2 weeks with no notice and now for another 2 weeks.... poor guy.. what is it about our mature draftees.

Maynard ... 8 weeks .... almost career ending in reality

11 on the list... that is in excess of 25% of the list.. whether or not they are best 22 it is not good for overall team development... (not sure if resting Flip counts as an injury)

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
