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.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
