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. 

Yes, but what did he [Hird] take, given his coaching mantra "whatever we take", to get over it?

 

And any updates on Kent's injury?

Channel 7 news

I watched channel 7 news and just found a clip on twitter of it as well and didn’t hear anything about Tom having scans. They mentioned Kent needing more scans to determine the extent of his injury.

Tyson has a fracture of the ulna a couple of inches up from the wrist. It has been screwed and plated. Outside chance to be fit for first final.

Kent injured his R/H ac joint (opposite side to the one reconstructed last year). The collarbone is slightly displaced. No news re;           1) which of the 3 possibilities below if any (diagram downloaded from Dr Google) or 2) recovery time.

Watched that Tyson collision on the replay today... looked so innocuous.

Here's hoping

In an ideal world, would prefer Tyson to whoever his replacement would be. His games since returning from the VFL have been more than decent - even on the weekend, in less than a half of footy he managed 13 disposals - and at 100% efficiency.

Question then becomes, how do he and Viney co exist?

Remember Tyson was dropped originally cos Viney was back and we had too many inside mids.

I think it will depend on where they play viney. Is he dangerous enough to replace Kent as a forward? Goody said on the couch that he would play a bit forward and a bit of midfield.

Gotta admit almost ? myself reading this post!

I'm still sceptical

I spoke with one of the MFC coaches on Sunday, Viney certain to play. Might play half vs Geelong VFL, would have played vs Giants if we had lost to WCE. Pretty insightful chatting to a coach must admit, some other insights I really enjoyed hearing.

Watch goody on "on the couch" last night. Viney is playing 100%

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
