With the shortened time off and the fact the whole list was in WA, I was wondering if anyone had any news regarding off season surgeries that might impact next year?

    Trent rivers had his tonsils the other day. Expect him to be right for day 1 of preseason 😂

    Steven May has that 6cm tear in his hamstring he needs to recuperate from.

    Hopefully, he will take it easy and let it fully heal before getting back into full training in the Pre-Season.

    I'm recovering exceedingly well from the damage to my psyche from 57 years of losing

    The way we smashed our way through finals, I feel there are few players carrying major injuries.  Given the short break this should put us in a great position to rest the players and get them ready for round 1.  I would be cautious with the kids and the oldies. Rivers/Kozzi/Jackson, give them a big rest.   then May, Gawn etc.  but the majority of the list are in the sweet spot of big hardened bodies but still young

    Is that worse than an Oedipus Complex?

    Given our age demographic, group booking at The Royal Children's?

    Serious one: Christian Salem's apparent groin issues? (don't know if these are intervention or rest matters)

    His form peaked in finals, the byes helped him a ton. Should just be rest I reckon?

    I'm guessing he's sticking strictly to the nightclub and alcohol treatment in Perth.

    To hell with that. Now he has retired, he’s gotta get to work on producing even more potential father/daughters/sons

    I expect Clarrie's in the shoulder surgery queue

    Does he get them done every off season? 

    But really I haven’t seen any of our players post anything on their socials other than enjoying their off season. May is still away playing golf. The WA boys are off doing gym work and enjoying the sunsets. Jacko did mention on the Gus and Gawny podcast that he needs to have wisdom teeth removed so the boy is in for a lot of dental work.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
