Why is there talk about an injury for AVB - did he cop one?

A poster is adamant AVB has busted his cheek bone and could miss weeks. He started his own thread on it.

    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.

    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).

    Pickett is playing

    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).

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
