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.

May, I am reliably informed, will play in Marsh game 2. This is from a source that is closer to match day activities than CEO Pert. Take it FWIW, but that is the info I received from the mouth of a MF

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 appe

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

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.

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

 

or are the all overweight and slow like me ?

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.

 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.

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

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.

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.

    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. Injuries to star play

    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

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
