Interesting no one commented on this in training thread. 

May wasn’t on the track by the time I got there.

    Yes, didn't see it.

    I wonder where he was 'sitting'.

    I'll have a look at him tomorrow if he is there. As training is scheduled from 10.30 am.

    The alleged injury to May doesn’t appear to be much of a news story. Possibly, just a ‘precaution’.

    Neither did I, said hello to him as he walked off at end of session, didn't look hampered at all

    May has never played 20 games in a season, let alone the 25 required to win a premiership. His best football is fantastic, but he is always a good chance to get injured or belt someone at the worst possible time.

    Yesterday or today?

    I think we need to drastically scale back his training loads and build a game plan around him sitting deeper at full back. 

    Many dreams of changing his body shape and game style are just that, dreams.

    Interesting that cameras were there at training and this breaks and nothing on Oliver. 

    TV news is all about the video footage. If the network doesn't have a picture showing Oliver in trouble but one showing that May might be, they'll fashion the story to address May's potential injury because it is what they can show.

    interesting 'cherry picked' statistic. His 6 years prior to joining Melbourne he played 17-19 games. since he became established he hasn't missed big chunks of the season until last year. I think the fitness thing is a massive over reaction.

    The 9 news item also mentioned Oliver and showed footage of him going down. Also mentioned and showed Melksham nursing a hand injury, but suggested that it was minor.

    • Adam Tomlinson (calf) and Charlie Spargo (ankle) had minor setbacks last week as they begin their program

    Injury notes track watchers:-

    • Aaron VandenBerg, Austin Bradtke and Harrison Petty - rehabbers increasing their work load

    • Oskar Baker and Mitch Hannan with Tomlinson rehabbers walking laps 

    • Joel Smith appears to be on his own programme doing light duties

    • Clayton Oliver trained on Friday with his left shoulder heavily strapped and left training early again

    • Kade Kolodjashnij collided with Matty Hore at training and went off early favouring his right arm

    Anyone know why Oskar Baker is doing light rehab? I don't recall him getting an injury towards back end of the year or surgery?

    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. 

    Confusing your posts with satire is not something I've ever done. Ethan Trembay, now that's a funny cat.

    I find it frustrating to hear that so-and-so is in the rehab group without knowing the cause (what happened when it happened), current progress and likely period in rehab. 

    As we so seldom get official club reports on injuries during the pre-season, I thought it would be helpful ( well for me anyway) if we could have a separate thread listing the current injured players, what their injuries are, and how long the chat is that they will be in rehab (and no jokes about 4-6 weeks). It would then be easy to look back and get an update.

    I assume that the most informed of us will be the track watches, and if we could impose on those gents, or others with the info, to please update the list with details, it would be most appreciated. 

    The injured or restricted players that have been mentioned in training reports that I can remember include:

    KK

    Petty

    Hannan

    Tomlinson

    Spargo

    Jones

    AVB

    J Smith

    Weid

    Bennell

    Baker

    There may be others but others can add those.

    • 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.
