Just watched the news on tv, Showed the Jeremy Cameron thing again.....then showed the story on TMac......That Port arsewipe lined Tommy up and hit him straight down the middle.....Result is a bruised bleeding lung and nothing happens....Just like Sylvia's jaw a few years ago. We just don't matter in the eyes of many. Frustrating.

If one of ours got suspended for that superb bump you'd be calling for blood.

Possibly, but it seems a bit double standards to me. I don't think Camerons was deliberate for what its worth. TMac was lined up and hurt. Not sure if the Port blokes feet left the ground.

'that superb bump" as you call it, has been an example of the reason why Bernie, amongst others, has been cited and maligned several times, in the past, by the media when they feel it has been  "poo" ie stink, worthy by their standards of MFC.

Yeah superb bump, ran past the ball and with force bumped a bloke not expecting it and bruised his lung, which saw him coughing up blood. Extremely courageous act. Lucky not to connect with TMac's head, or it would have been weeks, even though it was not deemed worthy of a free kick to us, as was no other incident in our F50 the whole night, even though the ball was in our F50 twice the time of Port, who got multiple frees, 50's and suspect marks and goals.

Sorry for the umpire rant I am still angry at them.

Wow. With an injury list that small and we lose to the Aints on the MCG

Disgraceful

So is it recruiting or development?

You can't win with him, though.  If it was a long injury list he'd be blaming it on the Norm Smith Curse, Dave Misson is absolute rubbish, players getting injured means they have zero passion and so forth.  He'll change anything in any way he can to fit his narrative.

At least it gave you opportunity to share an opinion that none of us knew.

Only 4 Players listed as injured. Joel Smith is a Test, plus Lever, Maynard and Hunt.

Shortest injury list in the AFL.

Credit where it's due.

 

Edit: Might have gone too early (!), seems Stretch could be added to that. Would make us equal lowest, with Brisbane. FWIW ...

Just heard that Billy Stretch may have injured a knee. Hope that mail is completely wrong.

no sauce..no post on a rumour like that

Bad luck to Billy Stretch just as soon as he breaks back into the team, he gets a stress fracture to the toe and that’s his season in all likelihood.

The unusual one this week is Jayden Hunt who is officially listed as a test even though I thought Simon Goodwin mentioned he was a couple of weeks ago in his presser.

Melbourne injury list: round 17

Jayden Hunt (ankle) – test
Declan Keilty (concussion) – test
Joel Smith (hip) – test
Dion Johnstone (quad) – one week
Billy Stretch (toe) – indefinite
Jack Lever (knee) – season 
Corey Maynard (hip) – season 

 

Lever is the only key injury in that list. With such a good run there is no reason why we shouldn't be competing for a guaranteed finals spot.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
