Hmmm, so why do people in Perth know beforehand? Family members? Friends? This season is turning into a cluster F

I wasn't having a go at you, but your original post sounded different in the context of what he actually said, and since I am not in Perth I have no idea what was reported.

It sounded like you were validating the original poster by saying this was reported in Perth, which it clearly was not. 

All good... I went early and out of context.

 

Jesse said last night that he had a scan yesterday then had to have a second one in the afternoon and was meeting doctors today.  There is every chance (note I am surmising) they knew the problem with the second scan and today's doctor meeting was/is to work thru options. 

Good on Jesse for not letting on suspicions or confirmations of the issues on national television.  What is said behind the scenes to/ by managers, friends etc etc who knows

Whoever leaked isn't really important to me.  I just care about having 22 fit players to get us a win or two in the next few games. 

And of course if true, I wish Jesse a speedy and trouble free recovery. 

Note:  Reports are he was not wearing a moon boot at training this morning but then again nor did he train.

Maybe the club is trying to soften the blow by first releasing the info that Hibberd and maybe Melksham might return this weekend.

So I guess you don’t mind if your doctor releases your herpes results?

Sam Weideman, come on down!

I know you're a 1 goal a game battling forward at Casey, but it's time you arrived in the big league and justify the top 10 pick we spent on you. 

(Or do we go with a TMac/ Pedo fwd line?)

I would certainly like to know who leaked it, if it turns out to be correct.

Hang on a second, I certainly did not say nor did I imply doctors leaked.  Herpes?  Good Lord!  Get a grip! 

Anyway, I think people on here should not speculate doctors (or who) did leak like your post implies.

And no, from where I sit I don't care who leaked it - that is up to the club to sort out.  If he has a foot injury that puts out him for 2018 that is for medicos to work with.  I care about Jesse's welfare like I said in my post but as far as 2018 is concerned if he is not available he is not available.  Who leaked it is really irrelevant to our season.

No magic needed, it was leaked by someone, that was my point. Jesse played it down last night on TV

It’s relevant for other reasons in a general discussion about privacy.

Weid, Pig and Milkshakes in this week. Think Kent should also come in.


Time for the Weid to make his mark!

I called for Pedo to stay in the side but I'm backtracking on that. Weidemann has a massive opportunity to stamp his place in the side and possibly play a final or two.

Doesn't matter if the big fella misses, we rolled the Eagles in perth without him last year and will do it again!

That's an omen right there Philthy.

Hogan was limping, proppy and NQR against Adelaide too. Maybe this has been a problem for longer than just the past few days.

Confirmed by the club that he is out for the season.

Here's the link --> http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2018-08-14/hogan-to-miss-rest-of-the-season

This season just keeps on giving.... Oh well Weideman has got two weeks to show if he has improved this year.

Personally that just about does me for this year... time to pick a team to watch in the finals as usual

it's important to get games into Weid, but Pederson IMO will give us more output at the moment


Just when it couldnt get any worse, it does!

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
