The injuries have started.

Adam Tomlinson had a great run over at the GWS Giants but as soon as he lobs in at the MFC, this happens -

Tomlinson and Spargo to have a delayed start

Fingers crossed that we get a few good breaks this year and this thread isn’t as long and depressing as the one we had last year.

    He has barely missed a game for the Giants. Comes to the Dees. Injured before he even starts. We sure know how to pick them. We are [censored] cursed.

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

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

    Jesus not a 2 week delay due to minor injuries. The world is ending!

    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.

    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.

    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

    • 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.
