    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

    Must have come across a rabid supporter.

    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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
