    If Lever is playing for Casey this weekend (like I believe Goody said in his presser) why is he listed as 1-2 still?

    disclaimer: I was "working" while listening to Goodwin speak so I may have misheard.

    I think Demonland's injury is fake news.

    Having trouble cut and pasting it but  according to the MFC site at 10:24 am this morning Lever is a test, Hannan in 1 week and Hibberd is two weeks. Unfortunately Melk is 4-5 so no joy there.

    That may be in reference to fitness to play senior football.  By the way Goodwin describes it, sounds like he’ll just be making a cameo at Casey this weekend.

    Unfortunately our depth as been shown up as poor at best, with a few exceptions.  Maybe in part for the exact opposite reasons?

    Really?  We have 10 to 15 injuries and we've won our last two games, one against the Hawks who just knocked off the Giants. 

    I reckon our depth is doing pretty well.

    so bang on half of what i think of as our 'best 26 man squad' is currently listed as injured...

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

    Frost and Hore have been almost our best defenders and you cant find a place for them??

    Frost for J Smith 

    Hore for Lewis (who is almost done) 

    Lockhart, Jeffy ( although hasnt done much still gets in dangerous territory and is only 2-3 Goals away from finding good form) !?

    Sorry Whatwhats aywhat respect ur post but needs a rethink!

    By depth i'm talking about players we could bring in to replace those badly out of form prior to our change of game style from Rnd 7 against the Hawks.  We had to keep playing many of those out of form hoping for a turn around but until the 10 day circuit breaker re-set of game style / structure by Goody & the FD into the Hawks match, you can't say we were doing well surely?

    There's still no obvious in form depth player to cover the likes of an out of form T-Mac or Weid. Hibb and Spargo.  We had to bring in Jeffy to hopefully provide some crumbing goal scoring up forward but he's so out of form he still hasn't fired a shot (1 goal in three matches) and who was never in form at VFL level to start with...but very few alternatives.  No direct replacements for an out of form Tracc, ANB (prior to his one solid performance against the Hawks which is hopefully a great sign of a turn around) and a continuing out of form Oscar.   We might have snatched one or two more wins had we had similar depth to the Tiges to replace some of these roles early.  We didn't and went 1 - 5 following that match and in a world of trouble prior to the 10 day break.  The Tiges came in with a very similar injury issue to us....we lost.

    We have managed to piece together a vagabond team and change the structure / set ups to prevent the opp sling shoting over the back as per previously on the G, which is working so far.  Most of our mids were in form and have picked up even further since the Richmond game as well.   A credit to them and those that didn't falter or even upped their output on 2018 (eg., Salem, Clarry, Harmes, Frosty, Melk, Hunt, Maxy & JWags).  A credit to Goody & the FD for changing things up and winning the last two backs against the wall.   All good and happy with that.  Just saying, had we had the extra depth to replace 'a few more' of those who were badly out of form earlier in the season we might have done a little better and now be sitting either just in or just outside the eight.

    Nah,  its about a 2 week'r...   2 - 3 weeks.

    Hibbo's apparently broke clean thru into 3 bits...  so that might make it 3 weeks.

    2 weeks would be fairly tough I reckon, with a couple of breaks in the collarbone...  but its plated, so ????

    Hogan missed just the 2 games with a busted collarbone in 2017. I’ll take their word on that one.

    I hope Melksham’s 4-5 weeks is actually 4-5 weeks.

    If it changes to 4-6 then it’s the season.

    Wasn't  that a fabulous finish for a 6 gamer DG!  A rookie that's showing some real impact early.  Very nice prospect  indeed DG and a good news story this year.  Flying under the radar so far too!

    I remember Rob Flower broke one in about round 9 and missed the rest of the season!. Dont think it was plated though, dont think they did that procedure in the 80ts?

    Can't work out whether this means:

    1. Bring a TV evangelist to Australia to work some form of miracle cure invoking his imaginary friend; or
    2. Send an Australian-based TV evangelist offshore to remove the curse that person has placed on the club.

    Either way, though, sounds like a plan.

    Unsure if this is next level whipping or you genuinely think O Mac’s leg twisting under the tackle didn’t cause him any pain.

    4-5 weeks is a rebrand of the old 4-6 week injury which is usually season ending and then causes problems for at least the next season. It's a change that Gary Pert made to stamp his name on our Footy Department and show he means business.

    Yeah, i recall.   I think your right,  about the plating of collarbones,  back then. Its about a two week turnaround these days. but I'm not sure in this case with the collarbone broken clean thru with tow breaks.?

    I guess it all depends on the mid section size of the broken part...  how far apart the breaks are.?

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
