interesting to read that bennell is training with the 'second' mid group, of which jones is a part

from the looks of the happy snaps, first mid group is gawn, oliver, viney, brayshaw, petracca, and tomlinson

presumably one other as i think they're training in groups of seven?

Looks like Langdon is the seventh.

    Is there a list  or is it a state secret ?

    who has fully recovered ? And who has not.

    they will not all be fully fit. 

    and if some are not selected are there games for them that Casey will be engaged in. 
    I have looked here and on MFC site and cannot see any list. I need a football fix.

    years ago I spent 12 months in Europe then another year in Canada. I survived that break but I am eager for this one to end

    So please does anyone know the status of fitness of the players?

     

    or are the all overweight and slow like me ?

    Hope Bennell gets a go and looking to start as a dangerous forward option. 

    He'd be a nice addition around high half forward too. With his and Melksham's elite kicking, the inside 50 conversion should drastically improve.

    On the previous page of this thread there is a link to a 13th May article in which Burgess states that the players are looking good and at the end of that article it provides a FULL injury list that comprises just three players: AVB, Kolodjashnij and Nietschke (the three hardest to remember how to spell).  I guess this also answers the question for those wondering about Preuss; as he's not on the list, then he's obviously ready to go.

    2 of those we know about, hopefully AVB is working through it. But hopes for Kolodjashnij ever appearing again in a Melbourne guernsey would seem as remote as ever.

    I'm hoping that as AVB's injury was a break in the foot and unrelated to his previous foot issues, that this layoff has allowed his foot to recover to the point where the issues won't resurface.  The additional time out while the break heals, will only help... in fact, I'd be surprised if we see him at all this year, unless we were to make finals in which case they may chance it.

    Nice and short injury list although its unfortunate there are three talls on there.

    a couple more talls go down and we'll be stretched

    It's still six players. For us that's great but I suspect we are four absentees above the median level for all clubs

    Anyone know where Hannan is at? What's the latest on him? 

    Apparently good to go? Played in the scratch match from what I saw.

     There will be just five names on the club’s injury list heading into Round 2, with Braydon Preuss (Achilles), Marty Hore (toe) and Harry Petty (groin) the most recent Demons to be sidelined.

    Also no AVB as they are increasing his loads. 

    Obviously Nietschke is sidelined with an ACL. 

    No disrespect intended, but none of the above (or Koladjashnij) would necessarily be picked anyway. VandenBerg would be the closest of that group to getting a regular game, but he's been out so long, I don't know where he stands anymore.

    6-8 weeks out for Hore... incredible...do we train under a ladder or with black cats ??

    Bad news for our depth, but I don't have him in our best 22.

    If one or 2 of Lever, May and O Mac get injured, then the Hore injury will hurt.

    Don't forget that VDB came back to play around finals time in 2018 and it was as if he hadn't been out at all; he had an immediate impact.  The guy has incredible, seemingly natural, stamina and if his foot is not hindering him, I would put him straight in as top 22, if not top 10.

    I agree HT. If he’s fit he should be picked IMO. I’d like to see him tag and place a few good tackles on Cripps.

    H Petty indefinite! A groin, are we talking osteopubis? And I note AVB still working toward full fitness! After what 10 months to get fit we still have 5 on the injury list plus AVB still working toward selection. Oh well to be expected as our usual year on year injury list average always seems to be around 10 to 12.

    We need to sign Burgess longer term.

    I’d conservatively offer him a 25 year extension.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
