Poor Hore, how you tear a quad muscle while in the gym?! Crap luck.

Not ideal about Petty, but this year is a right off anyway, so hopefully the surgery can fix the issue for the long term.

    No excuses on the injury front. 

     

    Not even sure it would be as high as 105.

    Most of those games are probably Kolo! 

    We are struggling with every best 22 player available,  not a good look!

    Agree. I was thinking this probably our strongest line up.  No excuses. The performance against the Cats was very disappointing.

    The Herald Sun is reporting that Tom McDonald has been cleared of serious damage to his injured eye and could be back on field against Hawthorn on Sunday after he was taken to hospital as a precaution and found to have a scratched eyeball. The eye area remains quite bruised and closed over and will be monitored by club medical staff during the week. McDonald will be on light duties for the next few days, but the Demons hope he can return to training later in the week and is a chance to play against the Hawks at Giants’ Stadium.

    Tom's eye will be fine provided he didn't watch the Sydney-Richmond game.

    I've actually had my eyeball given a good scratch once when a freak'n lunatic magpie lark (pee-wee) decided my face was it's enemy.  Didn't feel much, went ahead to attend a uni lecture, but started noticing people were giving me funny looks.  Went to wash it out in the bathrooms and after one double-take glance in the mirror I sprinted down the the medical centre where they jumped me right ahead of the queue - basically I had an outer eye completely layered with blood, deep pure red everywhere that should be white, and bulging. I shouldn't say sprinted - I actually moved with haste but not so much exertion because I honestly was worried my eyeball would burst if my pulse lifted.

    Strangely, it never affected my vision, I didn't feel much pain, and was completely fine in a couple of days.  I had to get a bunch of booster shots on account of the rabid pee-wee - I don't know if the same applies to Gold Coast players.

    Tmcd should be fine to play. Scratch (corneal abrasion) heals in about 3 days. It’s very painful and first 24 hours is a lot of weeping of the eye and sensitivity to light (needed the patch).

    I’ve had a scratched cornea and it is excruciating

    I can’t imagine playing footy a week after copping it; super painful

    Looking through each clubs injury list we are in the unusual position of being one of the best placed clubs.  most teams are missing around 4 quality best 22 players.

    The Covid-Cup will be ours!

    Same. Very unpleasant injury. I was surprised at how long it took them to patch it up for him, he was sitting on the bench for ages with nothing but his jacket hood covering up the eye. Taping the bugger shut is the only way to get any relief.

    the commentators also said it was a scratched Retina! 

    which is quite difficult unless you have very long nails and excellent aim

    It is true the bloke that got TMac in the eye actually dislocated his finger while doing so?   It was mentioned on some show earlier in week, but I was only half listening.

    If it was the 2018 TMc out then that would be a monster loss. Even though he was starting to show something last week he shouldn’t be too difficult to replace

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
