I'll be happy if he plays a preseason game footy - he will need a hit out and he is critical part of our back 6 (the most most critical?) so needs some match team with Omac and co to build synergy and 'connection'.

I'll be very unhappy if in that game he shirt fronts a roos players and gets suspended 

Unfortunately he's just as likely to finish out the game with a bag of ice glad wrapped to his hammy.

That suspension he got last year was an absolute joke.  It was worth a small fine, at best.

Be that as it may (pardon the pun) it was unnecessary and stupid to even risk a suspension. Save the tough guys stuff for games played for premiership points

True.  I won't argue that.  But it was still a silly decision on the tribunal's part.

You might be right rjay.  But that's life.  I don't expect the club to always tell the 'whole' truth.  

Maybe they believed it wasn't too bad and it's taking a little longer?  That happens from time to time.

Either way, May has done the bulk of the pre-season and should therefore be in pretty good nick regardless.  Here's hoping he can be right for Round 1.

I spoke to May at training (queue Dazzle telling me I'm a fanboy) and had quite a chat.  It was a cyst that was giving him a little trouble, nothing major.  My understanding is it got infected and they are dealing with that.  I can't imagine taking a cyst out would cause any long term damage.  But he's hardly done "the bulk of the preseason".  He did the block before Christmas and has done the week in Queensland but other than that he's not been in training.  It's a shame because he's lacked the chance to work with the other backs in match sims. 

I'm going with Chell on this.  I reckon he'll play the second match and will play game one.  Here's hoping anyway.

He had lots of form Wiseblood.

I doubt he is the sharpest tool in the shed.

Maybe (pardon another pun) but given the elbows that Ablett was throwing around and getting away with during the season proper I think we can all agree that the tribunal is inconsistent and would appear biased towards certain players.

Im not so sure about this. 

May was standing still, the Berry ran straight towards him, and May took 1-2 small steps and braced. Berry didn't look where he was running or prepare for contact, which was ridiculous because he handballed because he knew May was there and then kept running to potentially recieve the 1-2 handball. Did he expect May to let him walk past? He has to be responsible for being aware of players within his immediate area. 

If May didn't bump, the Brisbane player would have ran into him. His only other option was to step out of the way,  which is ridiculous. 

Here are multiple angles:

Cheers Bob.  My 'bulk of the pre-season' comment was based on the fact that, compared to last season, he had seemingly done everything asked of him up until the injury, which I feel would still leave him in a good spot leading up to the season.  You guys would know more than me on that, but compared the pre-season he had last year, he looks to be in a better position to be ready for the year ahead.

He looks in great shape and his "match sim" form was terrific before Christmas.  He also did a lot of running in rehab prior to Queensland so here's hoping.

Very promising, and terrific news if your source is on the money. Though I’ll be happier if they just hold him off till the actual footy starts. 

“We expect Angus Brayshaw to be available next week following his elbow injury and both Steven May and Max Gawn are to be considered for our second Marsh Series game against Hawthorn in two weeks.”

There you go

Well your info is certainly seemingly more credible than mach5’s. Is this the same source that told you months in advance that Harley was keen to play for us?

Leon can speak for himself of course, but just from the perspective of someone impartial; I've found him to be a very very credible poster who puts up spot on information.

Petty (groin?), possibly Wagner the only ones who might be longer-term concerns?

The injury issues we have are all down to one thing and one thing only - training.

Blind Freddy can see what the problem is here - if they didn't train they wouldn't get injured, so stop all the training sessions.

Are you serious 64?

In sport athletes have to train and prepare!

What  else Do you want Pete season to be?

sitting around the centre circle playing poker or maybe two up?

Mach 5 is like Poita and a couple of others on this site.

They criticise most Club decisions And are negative By and large.

Only offerings are over the top generalisations, and comments not backed up via any source or detail.

Basically all fake news and unsubstantiated opinion!!!

They are MFCSS paid members, they are the sort who are always negative, and might not be demon fans.

so if the recoveries for Gus, May and Gawn come to fruition, we could have zero best 22 players injured by round 1.  and the majority of the squad having done a good preseason.

oh my.  No excuse Demons

Anyone got an idea about the need for coyness?

“The Demons were coy pre-game about Fritsch's late withdrawal, saying he was out with an illness, but Goodwin set the record straight.
"He (Fritsch) had a little infection in his knee, he's been on the antibiotics so if that's a sickness then that's a sickness," he said.  

It just seems dumb. If he has a knee infection why wouldn’t you say he has a knee infection? Just seems pointless

I've added Jones to the list with his Shin Corkie, Bayley Fritsch with his Knee Infection and Joel Smith goes back on the list after coming off it when named in the team but then not playing even though a spot opened up with Fritsch's omission. Wagner and Jordon who played the day before were suited up on the bench as emergencies so Smith goes back on the list until he is available to play.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe
