really disturbing. Is there ANY other club having the same type of foot issues? It does seems like its particular to us and, if so, must  in some way to the way we prepare/ train...or the surface itself. Unless its just horrible luck. I hope they're investigating, because if Oliver, Gawn, or Brayshaw go down with something similar there could be riot ...and I'll be at the front of it. 

 

Don't forget the surface of Gosch's Paddock. There has to be a correlation to the surface and the spate of foot injuries over the past few years. 


Does vanders qualify to be part of this elite list?

Absent extreme coincidence or bad luck (both unlikely), one must assume there is something that we are doing at training or the site of our training.

Surely some sort of enquiry will be made by the footy dept to get to the bottom of this most troubling foot injury syndrome.

 

Too much repeat exercise on hard surfaces is the prime suspect according to the missus (GP).

Don't forget Tim Smith last year as well.

 

It is definitely associated with overuse, they definitely need to look at training loads.  Have had a lot of experience with these injuries in association with basketball.

Stretch and before that Clark and Trengove. All under Missons watch?

Yep I've been banging on about it for the last 18 months, time to ditch this fool.

The guy is a jinx.


Its hard to judge compared to other clubs, but at a glance it seems we have far more than we should.

Did the pies have problems before us at our training venue?  I don't remember any reports.

So it must be another cause, or simply poor physical mechanics in our players that we need a biomechanical to fix ASAP.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
