Let's hope he gets himself right. He's doing the right thing for the long term.

 Speedy recovery Jack Stevens hope that you are in a good place.

It can happen to anyone at any time and he is brave to call out.  His healing is the most important as time out will do him good. I have been there with someone in my family. I am sure he will get the right care.

Do as you wish but I think we should take anyone saying they have a MH issue at face value. If not, people with real problems will be dismissed. 

Would be easier and with less press to just say he did his hammy.

The players can still be drug tested sitting out with a made up injury. If you’ve had two strikes and fear a test is imminent, then claim mental health issues and you can’t be forced to submit to a drug test. 

*I’m not at all saying this is the case with Stevens.

You really don't want your best player on indefinite leave 3 weeks before the season starts. 

Saints can't take a trick. 

Interestingly though, he said he hoped not to miss any games and that it was a family issue. He might just need a couple of weeks to concentrate on the issue.

he also said he was going to have a complete break from any training. wouldn't want to be too long a break if he wants to play round 1. it didn't sound like a short break the way he talked.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    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
