No news on Petty is good news? 

Well we can sit with baited breadth until the casey game this evenng coz we probably won't have the chance to see the sides before then.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Vanders back playing for Ainslie next year. I think this is the last year of his three year deal with us and his body just doesn't seem to be able to stand up to the rigours of AFL football any more unfortunately which is a shame.

Mitch Brown not playing for Casey. Mystery injury?

I can't see him on any lists but I'm pretty sure Mitch Brown was injured at training after the Hawthorn game. Might be on one of Burgo's updates for that week.

Watching the game last night, did anyone else's ears [censored] up when, during one of the quarter breaks, one commentator stated that Harmes was having his first game back following his skateboard injury

Back after the round one game, the MFC stated the following:

"JAMES Harmes will miss the next six weeks of footy after injuring his wrist during Melbourne’s Round 1 win against Fremantle.

The midfielder sustained a knock just after half time on Saturday afternoon, but managed to play out the game without too much concern.

Harmes then had an x-ray, which showed nothing untoward, with only an MRI later confirming a crack in his scaphoid. He will be sidelined until at least Round 7".

I wonder which story is correct?

EDIT - my bad -just reheard what Ben Dixon said at 3/4 time. He said "scaphoid" injury, not "skateboard" injury. I'm having my ears tested today.

Vanders has played 47 games in 6 years. 19 games in the last 4 years. Injuries have really hurt his potential as a tough skilled half forward-mid.  But I remain hopeful that this year, he might be valuable come the second half of the year.  He definitely brings higher physical edge to the team when he’s in the team.

Cats got a massive advantage last year with the shorter quarters and hardly traveling in the second part of the fixture.

And having one of the biggest home ground advantages for eons.

Hopefully scans show it’s not an ACL. 

Likely to be out even if cleared of major damage. 

Who replace him? How do we set up our back 6?

Shocking.

Looks bad given his distress.

Petty is probably next in.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
