Has anyone got any news yet?

Heard Dal Santo on afl feed day his day is finished but will await more details.  

Fingers crossed it’s not too bad. 

 

Club suspects bone bruising. Sent him immediately for scans.

Nervous wait until we hear the outcome of the scan! Hopefully only a 3-4 week injury and he could be back after the bye.


Doesnt look good at all.

There was no contact... the knee just went.

ABC saying Melbourne are worried it's an ACL...

FML that would be right. We can’t have things go smoothly at Melbourne. Something always has to go wrong. 

Fingers crossed!

It was pretty innocuous. Changing direction at relatively low speed. Hoping for the best. 

 

Just caught the end of someone on ABC in rooms interview.  Maybe Tommy McD?

Either he or commentator said ACL was mentioned somewhere.  All a bit vague, but IF a full ACL the man involved would surely know it.

Sadly no contact when his knee seemed to buckle, so unlikely to be bone bruising, I reckon.  Sincerely hope that this is just MFCSS in my part!


He has had a knee reconstruction on that knee in 2014 so here’s hoping he hasn’t done major damage to it. 

Im not holding my breath. 

TripleM doc said likely ligament damage, but only expects 4-6 weeks off. We shall see.

 

E: Goodwin just said suspected ACL

Felt so relieved reading that.

Then I got to the second line.

For [censored] sake.


It will be what it is.

Please remind me who is / are playing any similar type of rôle at Casey?  

Keilty? How is he coming along?

Same question for Petty?

It would be a backward step though could become necessary to more Tommy back?

Is it possible that it’s a partial knee tear and he returns in 6-8 weeks like Dale Morris?

I rate Petty. However as we saw with Nev today, i reckon it's just another tall defender to plug the hole and free up nev and hibbo for the intercept.

If he needs a MRI then almost certainly not until Monday but the 2 day delay wouldn’t effect recovery from whatever it turns out to be.

Surely footballers get preferential treatment and quicker results? 

Not sure we can wait until Monday. Might die of anxiety.

Hope he returns like Jake Lever, not like Dale Morris ?

Mmmm, these things much like ebola, can affect masses of people in the community...

  • 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.

    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.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
