Courtesy of today's Australian, this is our official injury list. A little birdie tells me that it's not accurate and at least one player who is due back about round 2 is probably not going to be back for at least a month beyond that and then it will be at least a couple of weeks at Sandy. FWIW, the injury list (sponsored by the 426 Corporation, makers of the world's finest prosthetics):-

Clint Bartram (ankle) 2-3 weeks

Jace Bode (back) 2 - 3 weeks

Ben Holland (hip) test

Travis Johnstone (foot) test

Brock McLean (thigh) 1 week

Nick Smith (amnesia) 4 - 6 weeks

Colin Sylvia (groin) 2 -3 weeks

Matthew Warnock (ankle) 2-3 weeks

Paul Wheatley (ankle) test

    Thanks Alpha. Got a nice giggle from that. Certainly the last thing I expected given the info...

    As long as your not talking about Brock....

    My guess would be Sylvia or Bartram.

    I'm very worried about Brock. If we are going to do anything this year we need him to play as many games as possible. I very much hoping he isn't injury prone throughout his career. He may well be the best midfielder we've had in many a year. Sylvia's constant injury concerns are also a big problem.

    Relax. It's not Brock!

    I know it's not but I'm still worried. With him we finish 3-6, if he misses long parts of the season we finish anywhere between 6th and 12th. He is our most important player imo.

    Sorry confused....what do you mean "Relax its not brock".

    Gotta agree with Harcourt. No Brock, noooooot happening this year.

    It's Bartram.

    It maybe but at training today Bartram looked well advanced on Col and did the full session. Col didn't.

    My oversight. I don't expect to see Col in the short term future unfortunately so he'd skipped my memory bank. So Col is medium term(?) but at least with Clint his progress can be judged a lot more precisely.

    • 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.
