Confirmed by Ben Guthrie as a stress fracture in his tore.

Shocking luck! All the best bill.

Nothing worse than a fractured tore.

    Such bad luck for him.  Puts in his best game for the Dees, then this.

    Hope he hasn't been playing with a 'hot spot' ala Tom Mc early this year...

    We have a bit of experience treating foot injuries.  So hope he is up and about quickly.

    Edit.  Just read the Training thread and it seems he is out for the year ?

    Dam I was hoping Stretcher would be playing in September like his old man...

    Footy was tough then, and Steven was often targetted off the ball or as he kicked

    I really do not know of another club who has so many players with foot/toe injuries as we have had in recent times.

    Damn he looked good giving us the run and carry we badly need last week...chance for Baker to debut now?

  • Quote

    That's a shame for him and us as we need outside run at the G. He was much improved Vs Freo compared to his form earlier this year and late last year.

    Apparantly Oskar Baker's not ready, so who comes in to replace that outside run that Stretch provides? JFK? Tyson?

    Dean Kent maybe? He played well at the G earlier in the season

    Hes been playing as an inside mid for 2 years at Casey.

    Agree he deserves a shot but can he play the Stretch/outside mid role?

    Hmm.  Given he's been dead for close to 55 years, i'd kinda doubt it!

    Hadn't connected the dots Daisy.  But, it IS a fact we've won just the one flag since the sad demise of JFK!  Any connection?

    • 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.
