Viney to play VFL by all accounts, can’t see Hib or Melk rushed back either.  They might be ‘fit’ but are they ‘right’?

great news re Lockhart - 2 to 3 weeks.

crap news re Brown and Weids - look r6 or r7 before we see these guys.  Both running though.

Jayden Hunt is progressing far quicker than anticipated and will commence running tomorrow.

Seems pretty decent news. Gus & Petty seem the only ones a bit behind (as expected). Plus, a good sign they'll get into some actual footy work pretty early.

This must be Vanders first pre-season in about 4 years not starting in the rehab group. Hopefully he and Nietschke will have uninterrupted pre-seasons this time around.

I thought Hibberd's 2020 was average.  That aside, imv others offer more this year so we can cover him with the players I mentioned.  

My insight on J. Smith is he is listed as 'Test' in the table earlier in this thread.  Round 1 is about 3 weeks after the injury so 'Test' looks about right for him.

Bowey is one I suggested in my post.

One has to look at 2020 form and Hibbo does not deserve to be dropped for that at all in fact he was one of our very good defenders along with May Saleme late in year and Rivers in the last 5 games. Think of what happened this time last year as he mourned his brothers loss. Very courageous effort in 2020 and IMO let no one down.

Although  injured Up to now he has played 1 and a half games last week in best 3 so firm good on both areas.

Contrast  this with Melky who had poor seasons in both 2019 ( injury also) and 2020 and has hardly played a quarter so far. 
Who should or deserves to replace Hibbo LC? 
We have to be careful that we don't go too tall for Fyfe and Taberner vs Freo.

I wasn't disparaging Hibberd. 

I think his courage and committment last after losing his brother was enormous.  All credit to him for the year he had.

Not sure I want to go around in circles about our respective views of his 2020 season and where he fits into the team this year so I'll leave it at that.

I just feel he is right at the end of his career and I think the one year contract shows  that.

More to say I think we have gone past him and his weaknesses,

He's cooked. 

I think he'll faze out of the team Bernie Vince style.

Normal for over 30  year olds but he is totally different from Nev who is in fast pace decline sadly.

There’s enough quality with enough training for it to be no excuse. Brown and Weideman are really the only 2 injuries 

Funny a guy who has never even played a game not even a practise game  for us is missed.

Certainly can't make excuses this week as the Dockers have more injuries than we do

Yes they do and I won't be making any excuses.

The problem is we have a few best 22 players getting some minutes for Casey such as Viney, Melksham and Hibberd which does not help us at all come tomorrow. 

Hoepfully next week Vs St Kilda we can add at least 2 of those 3 names into the side.

In Melkshams form last year he is nowhere near the intensity and skill for a senior birth without earning it.

Early prognosis

It was a good week on the injury front for the Demons, with Hibberd (ankle), Melksham (hamstring) and Viney (foot) all making it through a VFL practice match unscathed. Their impending availability adds to the clean bill of health that the side enjoyed following Saturday's win over the Dockers. - Riley Beveridge

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
