I wonder if this was pre-incident? @kev martin @DeeSpencer

 

Yes, pre-incident. It happened about 15 to 20 minutes before the end of the full session. I think he will be ok as he wasn't making much of it. He also waited around for his mates to finish up.

PS. They all went off to eat lunch together at a buffet.

Only on Demonland can you get such detailed reports.

I beg to differ. If it was a detailed report we'd not only know where they went for lunch but what each person had. And who paid.

I thought it was listed as groin.

You could be  are right. From MFC Website Harry Petty (groin) pulled up sore from last week’s game

I haven't noticed anything (injury wise) for this year but I thought he missed the last two games with a knee injury. Others may be able to clarify.

Correction

Baker has a groin injury and hopes to resume straight after X-mas.

Spargo injured his ankle ligament last Friday - unless he did them badly, should be back next week.

I think Petty had a minor knee clean-up post-season.

Not sure why Smith wasn't there, but he looked really strong last Friday. He has bulked up more and was working with backs - if fit will play on Jack Darling in Rd 1 IMO.

Most impressive today was Ed Langdon - ran hard, kicked well and looked eager.

Normally most go to Edwins and have a pasta salad or similar, today most were in, grabbed a coffee only and out again

That's the standard of service we Demonlanders expect. Thanks Saty.

Today's technical whinge:

Steve May skills more marks than he should because he doesn't get his hands close enough together and he also doesn't allow enough cushion by way of bending his elbows. Locking your elbows makes your arms stiff and heavy, keeping them bent allows for more movement and you can pluck the ball from the air.

Weid's and Tommy Mc have far better technique.

I'm not quibbling with your technical description (I wouldn't know), but are you confident from a still image that you can draw that particular conclusion?

Moonlighting, working behind the counter, to get that inside info, huh, Saty?  Well done!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
