    MELBOURNE has suffered a huge blow ahead of Sunday’s clash against Essendon with Christian Petracca ruled out with an infected finger.

    It is understood Petracca underwent surgery on Thursday and is expected to return for Round 7.

    How does one get an "infected finger" when you are surrounded by medicos ??

    MFCSS strikes again... starting to think about 2019

    And what sort of surgery is needed for an infected finger?

    We can't take a trick.

    IN: PEDO, T.MAC, FRITSCH, SPARGO, LEWIS

    OUT: KENT, PETRACCA, ANB, HARMES, STRETCH

    Tmac has to play afl if anywhere. Sit him in the goal square like dusty does and to hell with the zone.

    Surely just a dose of antibiotics would be enough...

    Yeah, Jeremy Howes dog strikes again. Was Trac holding the frisbee?

    Yep, read the article. Can't wait to see the joke asking if it was Jordan De Goey's dog.

    I think it could be an advantageous 1 week out, if it means Pedo comes in and his form forces Goody into keeping him in the team. Petracca is a coverable loss.

    He's one of our top 5 players if not higher when on song ... due respect to Pedersen but hard to cover

    Oh well, at least he’ll be rested up for the following week, not all bad

    With missions record he is out for the season...

    Trac probably injured his finger giving the bird to Goody's default Plan A.

    Infection from sticking it up Goody's ___ when he saw Plan B. 

    Whoever thinks we can cover a guy of his talent must be looking at another Melbourne Football Club. 

    This hurts big time against depleted Bummers.

    I meant collectively, we should be good enough to cover. If not, then we have larger issues than Tracc being out.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
