You don't (or won't) get many opportunities like this injury wise to have a serious crack at the flag, these opportunities won't be there forever. As with all sides, an injury to two key players like Gawn and Hogan could spell the end to a season. If the lads are serious, time to have a real crack, we can beat anyone including Richmond on our day.

It's all your fault MSF (lol) since that post we have lost Stretch, Viney and Hibberd.

And of course you have mentioned a few big bears in Gawn and Hogan ?

Interesting that Hunt is still showing as 4-5 weeks... hard to see him contributing this season unless we play deep into the finals. Will be an interesting call as to whether they even try to get him back.

As I was typing that I thought that I shouldn’t post it. I can take the blame, screw you MFC!

It’s getting up there now, three key injuries and a chunk of depth in Smith, Hunt (who’s having a down year), and Stretch. Plus Jetta test as well. 

Big challenge for us now, really hope Hibbo’s quad injury is on the lower end of severity.

Anyone know if Tim Smith is available? I see he was in Rehab.

3 of best 10 out

realistically 4 of best 22 out if I include Hunt

fingers crossed Hibberd out for 1-2 weeks max and Hunt ready in VFL in another 2 weeks. We do need more run and carry

Nearly had a heart attack! Please write "maximum" when that's what you mean. I thought for a moment that "max" meant Gawn and for some reason he was lining up in the VFL. I know it's a completely illogical thought, but reading social media can have that effect.

That’s bizarre but understood!!

I will also not use “gone” in case that also is confusing

I didn't realise that this was insider trading. I thought I had missed an article with the info. Thanks for the heads up.

Hypothetically if it is two weeks then back for the Suns game. Which you'd reckon they would not play him in if not 100% cherry ripe. Back the following week against the Swans.

Hannan out with a knee. Apparently.

Just stated on 7 news hibberd would be looking for a return during finals.

that might have been an assumption...as many have made on here. In fact maybe that "news" came right off this site.  Lets wait til we hear from the club. Im liking Rustys info until proven otherwise.

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.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

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
