Blake Howes?

There was mention somewhere I seem to recall reading yesterday that said he was returning to the vfl - he was listed as 1 week a week or so ago.

    Does anyone know the nature of Lever’s shoulder injury?  AC subluxation should be manageable, but a full AC  dislocation may not be. Presumably not a shoulder dislocation. 
     

    And anything specific re BBB? All it says is “knee” which covers a full range from plays, 1week, all through to bye bye BBB. 

    Joel Smithseems to have accelerated towards being able to take the field, hopefully not to sustain yet another injury. Could be handy as a defender or a forward, or even medical  sub.

    From training photos:

    Oliver

    No protection on his right hand!

    He got two coaches votes vs bulldogs playing one-handed!

    Watch out Freo!!

    Goodwin flagged in the postgame presser that BBB has a permanent knee issue.

    One wonders if he'll see his entire contract through?

    Agree. Brown had knee issues at Norfff. We took the gamble and it paid off. A premiership to remember.
    Love what the BBB delivered in the GF but I think BBB will go through to end 2023 most likely. We need the succession planning to happen for JVR to come through for 2024.

    With Daw retired, Mitch Brown likely to, Jacko probably gone, JVR not quite ready, TMac sketchy and Goody not being a fan of Weid, it definitely gives a lot more context to why we've been chasing so many key forwards. Could be a big issue next year.

    I wouldn’t mind a Fogarty type player to help fill the void someone with a it of mongrel to hand out a bit of hurt. JVR might have to come into the mix earlier to take the second or third tall. We put a lot of our eggs into LJ it’s really going to hurt our list if he walks out, we really need to keep playing Weid for the rest of the year. Preferably at CHF.

    We must try Joel Smith in F50 - hopefully he can get on the park and stay there

    Yes Sydee he would be very handy in F50 right now if he were fully fit, even Howes if fit.

    Anyone else find it strange that there's no official injury list available despite the fact that the team trained yesterday?

    Good to see Joel Smith available . 

    He was good for us early this year. Still not sure his best position but is very versatile. At a minimum he is a better sub option than Bedford,thommo and others who have been sub this year

    Could be very handy up forward/back. Hope he gets a gig soon.

    Health wise we have Rosman and TMac our only long term injuries with BB requiring long term management for his knee. Hopefully Joel Smith and Daniel Turner stay fit and healthy over the next 4 weeks excellent depth.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
