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.

Next minute: we want to set him up for a strong 2020....

Spoke to Hannan friday and he said should be back in 4-5.

 

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

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 ... ?

Why is Jetta already cooked by round 4?

I'll answer my own question, he was in rehab until the new year. It's going to be the story of the season sadly.

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.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
