Blake Howes will take some time but really want to see him in the last 5-6 weeks of the year.  Casey has a bye do extra time for recovery.  He could be a very handy mid-forward or running onballer. 🤞for remainder of 2022

I would play Joel Smith FORWARD as soon as he is available. WILD CARD for finals action

That's ludicrous by Salem to even suggest Melksham to replace Oliver. 

 

I haven't seen the context, but Salem is hardly going to say, "Nah, don't pick Melksham...he's a dud." In other words, just ignore what any player says because they're damned if they do and damned if they don't.

Exactly. Salem is just rattling off a few names that came to mind. Going through the motions.

Confusing MFC injury update.

McDonald running about and kicking. Looks 7 days off not 7 weeks.Turner, Smith and Howes will be available very soon. Already?

Oliver may or may not play against Port. Surely he cant play with a recently fractured thumb.  a GF... yes , but not R18 in Alice. Fun times.

Yeah, anyone else and I'd say no way, but Clarry strikes me as a player that would hate to miss a game.

We need to prepare for him to be out, but part of me thinks he'll be there.

A 10 day break should really help him here.

I thought he looked 7 weeks off in the brief video clip.

But great to see him on the track.

Not really. Laura said clarry given every chance for port and nothing more definitive than that  and if not hopeful for dogs.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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
