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

Saints can't take a trick.

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

    “The Deebrief” a Dees fan podcast, one of the crew said they’d seen him out and about on “mental health”.

     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.

    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.

    Without doubt he will come back for the Dees game to inspire the saints to a stirring win... ?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
