    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 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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
