Anything to avoid a bashing M and live long enough to see some silverware!

[spirit of norm smith 16,589]

Latest is the Hibbster will be out for at least 3-4 weeks. Not great news.  With Lever and Viney out, we won’t see the best 22 getting us there. 

Need to have more like Anb and Harmes step up.  

[Dee Zephyr 19,269]

This is from a Brayshaw article on the AFL website.

Meanwhile, the Demons have penciled in their round 21 clash with Sydney as a return date for key players Jack Viney and Michael Hibberd.

Never like things being "pencilled in". I much prefer something like ink that can't be erased and changed.

Tattooed would be even better.

Viney and Hibberd both listed as 2-3 weeks.

Hunt down to 1 week.

Harmes remains a chance to get up for Saturday night's clash against Adelaide despite having surgery to fix a broken hand on Monday. The midfielder will be tested at training on Wednesday. The Demons expect Vineyand Hibberd to return in round 21. Casey has a bye this weekend, so Hunt should be available to play the week after.

Just reported on the AFL site that Oliver left the track early with a quad complaint.

Our good run with injuries has not only come to a screeching halt, it’s now in reverse.

Hopefully he pulls up okay but geez it’d be a risk to play him now.

[Chelly 827]

No mention of Jesse and Clarry on the official list -

Melbourne injury list: round 19

Jayden Hunt (ankle) – available
Mitch King (concussion) – available
Harry Petty (rested) – available
Mitch Hannan (knee) – test
James Harmes (hand) – test
Dion Johnstone (quadriceps) – 1 week
Michael Hibberd (quadriceps) – 3 weeks
Jack Viney (toe) – 3-4 weeks
Jake Lever (knee) – season
Corey Maynard (hip) – season
Billy Stretch (toe) – season

[Lord Travis 10,763]

Harmes more likely NOT to play according to Misson.

Hibberd still 3 weeks away. Viney 3-4 weeks. That's both of them done for the year unless we march into September, and even then they'll be underdone fitness-wise. Disappointing to cop those injuries at the wrong end of the year!

[SFebes 4,884]

Interesting they say Petty was rested, the rumours were right. Viney and Hibberd still a bit off

Assuming the above is correct and in view of the fact that no new injuries were reported from the weekend, this is what we can expect from the next injury list:-

Melbourne injury list: round 20

Jayden Hunt (ankle) – available
Mitch King (concussion) – available
Harry Petty (rested) – available
Mitch Hannan (knee) – available 
James Harmes (hand) – available 
Dion Johnstone (quadriceps ) – available
Michael Hibberd (quadriceps) – 2 weeks
Jack Viney (toe) – 2-3 weeks
Jake Lever (knee) – season
Corey Maynard (hip) – season
Billy Stretch (toe) – season

Meaning only five players on the injury list with two significant players due to return soon.

[Demonland 73,161]

Jesse looked to be nursing a few ailments during the game. Possibly knee/groin/ankle. 

I also thought Petracca had some shoulder soreness during the game. 

Both played out the game and were instrumental in the sealer.

jesse has been carrying a bung shoulder since the first win against the dogs, i think?

part of the reason he's only going up one-handed at most contests

he also copped a hip flexor injury against the cats and wrenched his knee against the crows - which is why he can't jump at the ball and presumably is why he's playing from behind all the time

he doesn't need a rest; he just needs management

you do not 'rest' your best players when there's four weeks to go in the season and you're fighting for a spot in the 8

[DemonLad5 1,642]

god we really need Hibbo and Viney back for Sydney

[jnrmac 20,189]

Hunt will play at Casey this weekend.

That's great news. Hopefully he can find some form. I like what Hunt brings and he could be a weapon in 3 or 4  weeks time....(avoided saying the 'f' word...)

That could mean he plays well at Casey jnr they will be in September action, the Dees?

I think we can account for Sydney even without them. 

It's all about the West Coast game for me. With what this club has been through last year, that game looms as the biggest for this club in forever (yes, even bigger than the R23 Collingwood game last year).

Won there last year. Didn't make finals. To go back again and secure a spot in this year's finals after they knocked us out, with them firmly in the top four, would be our official return from the Wilderness.

And it goes without saying that Viney and Hibberd are crucial to that.

Don't forget the WCE game is at a new ground (same size as MCG) that we haven't played on yet. Last year was at Subiaco.

I'm just happy to take it one week at a time for now, we cant afford to take GC lightly, they beat Sydney at home only a couple of weeks back.

Jack Viney (toe) – 2-4 weeks

Unfortunately, round 22 at the earliest for Hibberd and Viney.  With a bit of luck it will be before the end of H&A games.

Better to play it safe with them, we rushed Viney last year in a desperate attempt to make the finals and it backfired terribly. Let’s make sure they are good to go regardless of our position. 

Good to see that Hogan and Petracca have been given the all clear from their niggles over the weekend. Though I think Jesse will be on light duties until the weekend.

On the one hand, they keep telling us that Hibberd and maybe Viney will play against Sydney ... on the other hand ...

Too bad they are on 12 wins already, they should make the finals now.

If they were on 11 they would not make it with that injury list.
