After training today, expect JKH to play, and Hannan to be out injured.

Bugg to be emergency.

Hannan with injured group.

Can you elaborate? Was he injured from the start of the session or did something happen?  Is it possible that he is being managed like gawn was the week before? Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Provided a lot last week. JKH has proven he cannot stand up to the pressure of AFL football. He drops the easiest marks and cannot finish inside 50. Bugg worth a try. He holds his marks at least.

At the airport feeling a bit crusty after Friday arvo work drinks turned into a bender at the local watching some classy girls jelly wrestling. 

I’m not as pumped as last week but still can’t wait to see the boys at the G.

Melbourne here I come. ??

Haha no rest for the wicked!

That's a bit of a bomb to drop without anything else to give, what do you think he injured? Was he visibly in pain or simply leave the track early?

Jkh in for Hannan is not good.

True,  but if he misses tomorrow he should be fresh as a daisy for the Elimination Final.

He was great vs West Coke.

I thought JKH was unlucky to be dropped.

Or was he injured?

No, JFK was dropped after the Sydney game because he’s not good enough.

He lacks composure (see the miss late in the Geelong game), can’t take a mark when there’s inferred pressure and doesn’t have any point of difference as an AFL player.

Hannan out today would be disappointing, however I can’t recall him playing back to back good games, particularly this year.

So is Hannan In or not???

We won’t know until this afternoon.

There’s only been speculation so far, which appears to be based on “trained with the injured group”, which has plenty of other explanations that don’t involve missing this game.

Two emergencies held over sounds like late change.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
