I think we can officially say that the next 7 days are going to push us all over the edge. This time next week I will undoubtably be having a complete full blown breakdown regardless of the results.

Have you already called in sick for the next 2 weeks Jaded.... next week for the panic attacks and emergency department visits for the heart attacks

The following week for the party at home (or the major depression episode obviously dependent on results)

Delighted no issue with Spargo.

Reading through this thread has not been good for the MFCSS.

I’m just so excited to see us play in a Geand Final.

I was way more nervous last week.

 

Long live the SparGOAT

I'm always happy that no matter my emotion, there's a 2:25 minutes or less Ramones song that perfectly encapsulates the feeling.

He was helped off the ground by trainers. It remains unclear how severe his injury is and if there was structural damage that could potentially rule him out of the season decider in seven days’ time.

If Spargo was unable to play next Saturday, it could open up the door for speedster Jayden Hunt to be recalled and play as a forward.

Alternatively, recent injury substitute James Jordon could be used as a half-forward and Hunt the sub.


Looks in the clip like Bedford (?) spinning Spargo around in a tackle. Steven May motioning in the near background, looks to me like May's gesturing to settle down with the length of the tackle. Spargo spun around 720deg, brought to ground in the process.

Cal and Barrett both reported that Melbourne said they think he will train in the next session.

Amazing. A Melbourne role-player is headline news as part of a nothing injury story in grand final week. This is living folks.

They missed a trick though. 

Small forward lock is tackled by another small forward - one who can't get into the team. But might. 

If a spot for a small forward suddenly became available.

Coincidence?

You be the judge.

If Melksham, Hunt, and Chandler go down in similar fashion in the next couple of training sessions then I would say you’re onto something.

Scoff all you want but he's an important role-player and one I want fit and playing.
Certainly didn't look ideal.

House mates too..

Injury scare a great set-up to sub Spargo off for a fresh player in the last quarter if required.

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
