Come on MFCSS member, it only a calf strain and he still has 2 weeks before he is required to start training.

Harden up princess. Have you read the story?

Old man calf injury. Thankfully we didn’t give him a wildly long and expensive contract... 

 

That is the sort of pre season interruption  i can deal with.

Mind you I'm a bit concerned with how specific the information is about the timing of their expected return.

Remember he stopped playing 4 weeks after our chaps.  Actually our boys stopped at round 1.

R U OK? 


Tomlinson will already be one of the fittest at the Club so a couple of weeks off legs at this time of the year will matter little.

Yes president of the MFCSS, he actually ripped his calf off the bone, will be out for 12 months LOL, where is the  excuse or the lie or even where is the meat in this story.

Do you realise that many of my posts in the off season are satire. I'm feeling rather bullish about where our club is, including during the season last year.

Calf strain should have him available for full training just in time for the xmas break.

Burgess said tonight at the forum that he felt a twinge after driving melb to sydney and back . All good and is commencing running tomorrow

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
