EDIT: He did it during the game - fair enough. Needed to be dropped anyway.

Edited by MondĂȘ

Probably not a bad thing for him to sit for a few games.  He's not in the best form and this allows us to try a few different things without the stigma of him being 'dropped'.

Set to miss 1 to 2 weeks. 

Not sure about the big blow bit!

We have too many slow plodders in the team, this will work to our advantage.

Amazing how often you get injured when you don't give 100%. If the other bloke is going harder than you, of course you will come off second best.

 

This just in

10,000 Demon Fans Out With Broken Hands
Fans believed to have punched walls, slammed table tops, in unexplained epidemic last Sunday afternoon.

All thr best Jordan. Speedy recovery.

Not sure id be playing after 2 weeks..plate or not.

My ...this season's going swimmingly !! 


We sure it wasn’t his foot? His kicking was just [censored] house on Saturday

Its a gutsy effort to play on with any injury but in particular with a broken hand.

It does save the embarrassment of being dropped. This way he will probably come back via Casey.

The end is near Ernest. Cannot see him playing in 2019. Good try and cost relatively low amount but is over. Two weeks will become four and if yes big if we are playing ok how does get back in? 


Lewis is making us worse in 2018 so this will work out in our favour.

It might explain why he played poorly, but it doesn't explain why he continued to play. It's not like we had other injured players on the bench.

Nevertheless, irrespective of the foolhardiness of playing on, it shows great courage. I suspect he played with either (or both) a numb hand or significant pain relief which knocked him about, because he clearly looked out of sorts.

Get well soon.

Best to see him retire of his own accord. For player and team.

Perhaps sadly Ernest I have got to the point with the MFC that I don't care about the individual anymore. Over the last 50 years numerous playing groups have completely worn away my " care factor for the individual" we have paid top ups to so many end of their time players over the years that my attitude is close to " if you cannot cut it get out of the road and let someone else have a go" 

I am only interested in winners over hill players can nick off.

Brutal ? Yes.


He can now devote more training time to standing up !

Very good puntkick

Played terribly v Hawks, so did 90% of the team. Played very well v North and from what the club said they were happy with his role v Brissy. He's an important player but for me he's not doing enough. Maybe this time off gives him a chance to get a few other niggles right, and he can maybe lend his experience in the coaching box.

Must add the "new kicking in danger rule does not apply to MFC" notes for maggots, to come out of versus Hawks game..........

  • 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?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • 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?
