A few blokes down this week.

Petracca, Salem and possibly Hogan. Massive danger game v's the Saints.

Hogan will play. 

If he came up after 5 days and also played out the game. 

Trac is only 7 days post his last game, so hopefully he comes up.

    Lucky we have a bye at VFL level .. might have had difficulty fielding a team and thus needed some Demonlanders to pull on the boots.

    I reckon he will play.  

    Unlikely with his injury. As stated could have lost his finger.  The injury was very serious.

    i recall reading of a finger dog bite that when not treated, bruised the entire vein in arm as it got into blood stream. Could've been deadly if not treated immediately. Not an injury to be messed with.

    I think they’ll err on the side of caution and give him the extra week.  A lot will depend on the damage that the infection did.  

    Infections are amazing with the speed in which they set in and the speed with which they can respond to treatment.  The infection would be gone by now, so it comes down to healing and recovery from it’s effects.

    He still has 5 days, if can get a full training session under his belt he should be ok.

    When first hearing this I accused young Petracca of being negligent in the sense of his failure to notify club doctors etc.

    For that I apologise as it would seem to be untrue.

    Good luck young man... infections kill .... lucky it was caught.

    Football is only a game or at best your profession. Health and family are so much more important.

    The real reason he missed the Essendon game.   Hes a very busy man.

    • 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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. 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.
