    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.

    Our fault entirely. 

    We shoulda beat them on QB & we woulda been on 12, them 11.

    Melbourne injury list: round 20

    Mitch Hannan (knee) – test
    James Harmes (hand) – available
    Michael Hibberd (quadriceps) – 2-3 weeks
    Jack Viney (toe) – 2-4 weeks
    Jake Lever (knee) – season
    Corey Maynard (hip) – season
    Billy Stretch (toe) – season

    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. 

    Personally I think we should shelve Viney for the rest of the year. Bringing him back early is just 2017 all over again

    That's why our club doctors earn the big bucks. Pressure on them to make the right call either way.

    Absolutely not. 

    Give him the next 5 weeks off and unleash him in the first week of finals.

    The long term picture is what I worry about. I feel like we're constantly going to be saying "Let's rest him, bringing him back early will do more harm than good". Before you know it he's played 10 games in 3 seasons.

    Exactly.

    We've had many a loss get away from us at the death, but Queens Birthday was not one of them. We were utterly schooled that day by Collingwood.

    add melksham to this list, apparently, with a hamstring

    What sort of credibility does the MFC have with reference to these injury lists?

    Melksham is reported to have strained the hammy during the second quarter of Saturday night's game so they clearly knew when they published this week's list that he was injured ... but didn't report it until today.

    This is exactly the reason why we have a "mystery injury of the week" on Demonland.

    Yeah it’s pretty strange, he even did an interview on The Sunday Footy show and we were none the wiser.

    Knew Viney would be gone for season, club selling milkshakes to us all along. Gaff out for season for WCE also. Hibberd and Hunt not far off.

    I wonder how close Hibberd is considering he is still listed as 2-3 weeks which is what he was listed as when he initially got the injury.

    Fingers crossed not far away. I reckon v WCE

    I'm thinking GWS

    I feel so bad for Joel Smith. Before the injury, he was playing probably his best game for the club, and his attack on the contest was bloody great.

    Balls the size of watermelons that kid.

    Hope you make it back next year Joel, i rate you.

    Gee the kid has played about 10 games had his shoulder busted in his first game by a 6 foot 5 iconic forward who should feel ashamed of himself, came back briefly that season then did a knee injury flying for a screamer at Sandringham and works his way back to gain a regular spot this season and now this! The football gods are not fair.

    You could see him shaking his head on the ground when he did it. Cannot take a trick

    I thought Joel's attack on the footy was outstanding. Won't be easy to fill his spot until Hibberd is ready.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
