Pretty much. It’s been the same for a long long time.

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.

If he's able to play with this affliction, I'm surprised he even noticed the pain from the broken collarbone.

If l hear anyone on this forum say that we are not doctors and we should back the clubs sports science and medical teams l will throw up. Hogan clearly had a significant injury during the game,  why bring him back on if you don’t know how serious it is? “We feel we have got it quite early”. More rubbish from Misson

Stretch, Viney and Hogan all played out games with sore feet. Not good and mind boggling considering previous foot injuries

You don’t know that you’re not a doctor! ?

Nah it is pretty frustrating. We have the right to at least ask the questions.

FWIW. James Hird missed all but two games of the 1999 season with a serious navicular injury. Came back to captain a premiership team in 2000. Won subsequent B & F's and AA selections.There is hope for Jesse with an injury that appears a lot less serious and apparently caught earlier.

Stress fractures don't "happen" they "develop". So what you wrote didn't happen.

You have literally zero ability to say he "clearly had a significant injury during the game" unless you are Hogan, and you told the club "guys I have a significant injury" but the club said "lol no you don't get back out there", or you're a doctor and you're able to explain how Hogan reporting mild foot soreness equates to "significant injury during the game".

I wonder how much this is going to hurt Casey they are starting to play players from the bottom of the barrell, wouldn't surprise me if we lost to Box Hill this week.

You were right WERRIDEE and the run of injuries continues. Lochie Filipovic broke his hand in that game and is out for 426.

Jayden Hunt and Joel Smith will be tested later in the week and Jack Viney is working towards a return in the finals. It wouldn’t surprise me if he was given a run in the VFL finals game during the AFL bye week to get some match fitness.

Melbourne injury list: round 23
 
Michael Hibberd (corked hamstring) – available
Jayden Hunt (ankle) – test
Joel Smith (collarbone) – test
Jack Viney (toe) – 2 weeks
Oskar Baker (hamstring) – 4 weeks
Lochie Filipovic (hand) – 4-6 weeks
Bernie Vince (AC joint) – 4-6 weeks
Jesse Hogan (foot) – season
Jake Lever (knee) – season

Good news with Hibberd to play vs GWS, and Joel Smith ahead of schedule undergoing a fitness test this week . Thats great news after it looked like he might be done for the season when he got hurt.  And on top of that, Bernie is still a chance to return if we advance past week 1 of finals.

The more players available in September the better.

Another 2 down today. Injury list is about 12 deep now. 

Hope Viney and Hunt get back for week 1 if finals. 

Hunt and Smith should both be available, but it’s pretty hard to see where they fit. Viney is apparently a lock.

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
