Knock on wood, but gees injury list is looking good compared to the last few years.

 

Now I've probably gone and jinxed it.

As an aside, how good is it not to have many injuries to senior players this season (touch wood).  Obviously credit has to go to Burgo and rest of the fitness / conditioning team - and there's also a bit of luck involved.

This could be critical as the season gets on - injuries are definitely starting to play a role in a few teams fortunes.

Especially critical for us, considering the fixture is going to be condensed and we are not going to get a bye like everyone else.

Once a cobra bit Vanders leg. After 5 days of excrutiating pain, the cobra died.

Get that Nietschke is gorn for the duration but a bit sad that Hore, Petty & Kolo can’t get beyond the indefinite tag.

That sucks about Kozzie, but hopefully the rest will help to keep him fresh. 

Looks like we will go with at least two changes with Tom Mac being dropped.

So we now have Gawn and Viney and maybe Pickett out of our best 22. Still should be enough talent to handle the Kangas (who are missing Brown, Ziebell and Cunnington).

X-rays showed no fracture.

Would imagine he is pretty sore there though and might be a bit reluctant to crash in. 
I am still a bit disappointed we didn’t bring in some more pace.

Rivers, Pickett and Hannan all add pace.

Rivers and Hannan are not real pace, but I agree they are not slow. 
Watch what Bolton is doing for the Tigers, he is creating scoring chances for the team continuously. We need a burst player to break up the pack.

Understand there's already a line ruled through Nietschke for 2020, but it'd be nice to hear an occasional update on Petty, Hore and KK (although I've assumed for a long while that KK's career is over).

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
