Since the competition resumed from the first Covid-19 lockdown in June there has been one constant at the club: the four players who’s status on the club injury list has remained pretty much static. They are:-

Marty Hore (toe and quad) – indefinite
Harry Petty (groin) – indefinite
Kade Kolodjashnij (head) – indefinite
Aaron Nietschke (knee) – season

Young Nietschke has been that way for almost his entire journey at the club since he was drafted in late 2018, having suffered two ACL’s. We’re not expecting to see him back until next season.

Kolodjashnij‘s concussion/head injuries have been well documented. He’s highly thought of at the club but his  long term health is paramount and my guess is that he is a likely retirement at the end of 2020.

But what of the other two? We’ve heard little about their rehabilitation and with six matches to go in this season of a compacted fixture, it would seem that time is running out.

Does anyone know where Hore and Petty stand in terms of their expected return to full training and playing games of football?

Would like to know more about Pettys injury and when he will be back.  Does anyone know how or when he injured it?

Someone on the board said a groin? Done for the year.

Probably doesn’t make a difference but I reckon that once a player is deemed to be unable to play at all for the remainder of the year, the proper designation should be “season” and not “indefinite”.

I think there was a club report in June / July saying they'd reassessed Petty's groin issue & agreed that surgery was the next step. I guess other treatments hadn't achieved the desired results. You would expect mid year groin surgery would most likely put a line through him for the season

Would be nice to get an update on Petty. Surgery was close to two months ago and haven't heard anything since. Hopefully he is progressing in rehab and on track to tackle day 1 of preseason. I believe he's out of contract as well so would be good to sign him up before Adelaide come sniffing.

No one has seen him in weeks, missing persons report?

Thought I saw Petty at either the North or Collingwood game.

I saw both Hore and Petty with the rest of the playing group on the race at the end of the Collingwood game. So they are in the hub. Not sure about the other two.

probably not much to report - either stationary bike or running laps - maybe on a big day both.  if list sizes are cut all but Hore would be in trouble.  Hore has shown he can play AFL level

Petty showed plenty and we should look to get him right for 2021. This year is a bust. 
 

Hore is a player. Behind Lever but very handy 3rd tallish defender. 
 

Neitscke has been horribly unlucky. Two knee reconstructions. Like to see what he can do if and when fit. Hope we hold him and honour the pledge. 
 

Kk - yes his health and ongoing wellbeing is the priority. Serious issues from multiple concussions. He had big potential but should retire at end of 2020.

Agree on all counts. KKs health is the priority, and if the right decision is made sets a good precent for future players and parents. Reach a deal that could help set him up in some Club role for his future.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
