Yep. Hasn't really changed the entire time he has been out. 3 to 4 weeks ago it was 3 weeks de-load and 3 week re-load.

I'm very sad........nevertheless i was sad last year for a while too.  This year however i'm sad because of knowing that they are better than what i thought they were last year. Whereas last year i didn't really know what they could achieve, so in effect i'm sadder this year than last year....you could ask if i will be extremely sad next year.......

I think Spargo would be helpful at the SCG. 

 

#edit:  I hope they do Not play TMc this week...  rest him  Ffs.

We do not need that high-endurance run on the bloody SCG.   So ANB and TMc can rest a week. 

 

But a bit of punch off the mark,  wouldn't go astray... - Sparrow. Chandler,

It’s crazy how many players are getting injured.  We need more cotton wool. 

Surely KK puts on the helmet like Brayshaw.  

The helmet does nothing to stop a concussion. Brayshaw wears it because his mum wants him to. 

He got elbowed in the head. It happens. He obviously is very prone to concussion and we need to manage that. 

I assume they’ll do with him what they did with Gus and Jetta before him, both of which, touch wood, have come out the other end.

Footballing maths. I suspect you might really mean 4 of our best 22.

football is all about your bottom six - take away four of the 22 and yr reliant upon your squad, and that's 26

fwiw, if you add in kk, that's 9 of what was my ostensible 'best 26' from the start of the year now missing:

B: Jetta - May - Lever
HB: Lewis - O Mac - Hibberd
C: Jones - Brayshaw - Harmes
HF: Petracca - T Mac - vandenBerg
F: J Smith - Weideman - Melksham
Foll: Gawn - Oliver - Viney
I/c: Hannan - Hunt - Fritsch - Preuss
Emerg: Spargo - Stretch - Kolodjashnij - Frost

that's 8 of 26 currently on the injury list, or freshly added to it since the weekend, plus jkh is next cab off the ranks too

Add Jetta and Lockhart to the growing list.

Mature-age forward Jay Lockhart has a back issue, while gun backman Neville Jetta is also battling some soreness.

Now that we've finally added McDonald to the injury list, when most people could tell he was struggling in round 1, when are we going to be honest about Jetta? The guy can barely move at the movement.

As I was saying ... ?

THIS IS RIDICULOUS 

12 injured players heading into round 4. 

Whilst not all are best 22, but imo 7 would be in my best 22 

jetta. Lever. May. Kk. Hannan. Lewis. jsmith. Vandenburg.

That’s TOO MANY ALREADY in a tough relatively even competition.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
