    Looks like he will miss a decent chunk of the season, unlucky for the young fella.

    Very disappointing news about Blake Howes' injury.

    He is only in his first year though. So luckily he has time on his side.

    Hopefully, he can still bulk up muscle in his arms and upper body while allowing his stress fracture in his foot to heal? However, I am sure Selwyn Griffith will sort out a plan for Blake Howes.

    I wish the young fella all the best and a speedy recovery.

    I wonder if the injury to Howes is enough for him to be put him on the long term injury list?

    There’s talk of a few young talented players emerging in the ranks who could be worth looking at in the mid season draft. We would probably have the last pick but it might be worthwhile exploring whether there’s a player out there to fit our needs eg. a genuine young ruck prospect to nurture for the day when Max retires or if Luke Jackson gets homesick.

    The article says … “Melbourne expecting Howes to be sidelined for at least two months as he recovers”.

    Two months would not likely amount to a long term injury so the club would have to wait some time before making an assessment.

    Mmnn, the dreaded navicular injury. That's Howes done for the year. Will need a good six months recovery. 

    Horrible luck for the young fella. Definitely showed a bit in the pre-season and VFL.

    Poor fella. Navicular stress factures can be life-long injuries ala Viney, James Hird and also career ending like Trengrove. Its not the injury you want at any age let alone at the start of your AFL career.

    Lets hope that he is properly rested, allowing the injury to properly heal. I wonder whether research has uncovered any new treatment and prevention measures given the prominence of this type of injury in all forms of sport.

    He played a great game last Anzac round.

    At least we have plenty of defenders in the mix to cover our injuries. 

    Off topic, depending on how Weid fares this year we may be looking for a proven big forward at the end of the year. Tmac was great for half a season last year but is very inconsistent. With Jackson spending more time on the ball we really now only have Bbb as a reliable tall.

    Devastated about the Howes injury, was loving seeing him in training. Really hope they take all the precautions and get him cherry ripe for pre season.

    Given the length of time out does the ETA on Salem allow for effectively putting in some sort of mini pre-season post full recovery?

    great to hear.

    Casey will be very strong this week against the Box Hill Hawks with T Mac, Tomlinson,Bedford, Dunstan and Hibberd

    2:05pm Sunday.... I believe at Box Hill... a lovely place to watch a game and easy parking within a five minute walk

    I reckon. 
    Maybe we’ll aim for him to play first game post bye. Have a couple of weeks hard training and a game and Casey abs come in firing

    Not sure about that... i've had some absolute ****ful days out there copping and giving it back to some of the numbskull Dawk supporters.  Other times have been good days but bit of a coin flip depending on which numb nutz are about.

    If i go i'll probably bring my earphones for some more intelligent radio commentary :lol:

    The venue itself is a great place to watch a match, the crowd is a different story, but this time you get to be the smug premiership winning wnker supporter, how good.

    Given the health of our list and winning form he’ll be the proverbial cherry ripe come game time. Whatever is needed, he’ll get. Loading on damaged/filled joint surfaces has to be done with progressive care, otherwise the surface starts to degrade irreparably…..Clint Bartram’s early career end being an example.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
