There is a rumour that Petracca is carrying an injury   any news??

Of course he is - every player is at this stage of the season. No indication that there is anything worrying though.

    That's a very healthy list with only one regular senior player unavailable.

    Is it mere luck or do our medical/conditioning staff deserve a pat on the back for their good work?

    Tmac timeframe is 2-3 weeks.. surely he wont be ready for first final?

    First final around 18 days away. Should be right for our second final. His touch won’t be there yet so he’ll fit in well up fwd

    Whoever has been producing these training reports recently needs to find another job. The idea of background music during an interview is bizarre. I think I heard The Deliverance at one stage, so I took that to mean that we're up sh#t creek without a paddle.

    McDonald is set to play VFL during the AFL's pre-finals bye, which could open the window for him to feature in the first week of senior finals.

    “As we sit here now, based on the way he (McDonald) is tracking, he’ll play next week,” Richardson confirmed.

    “We’re hopeful given the training he’s been doing, we’d be looking at him playing significant minutes next week.”

    There used to be rules about who can play finals in VFL if you hadnt played during Home and Away.

    Anyone know if this is still an issue for Tom?

    As long as the AFL team is still playing there are no restrictions on who may play in the VFL

    Agreed.

    Fat chance Salem and Jackson aren't fit for finals in a week and a half with those minor injuries.

    Brilliant to have another full list available heading into finals.

    It would be literally (actually) incredible (unbelievable) were Tommy to get back and have an influence finals  after so much time out: but if anyone has the physical and mental application to give it a red hot go it would be him.

    You reckon? 

    I don't doubt his intent and I am a fan for the last 4 years but I think he's mentally a little fragile.

    It's written across his face .When he's up and about he looks like a different player. 

    Walking off after a game where things have gone wrong he's flat and expressionless

    Probably better than skipping and joking. Maybe he’s serious about results.

    Not certain that’s the case when your AFL side isn’t playing on the weekend. I think the club has to get the okay from the VFL in the case of a player like Tom. It should be automatic because he’s returning from injury.

    It stands to reason that the clubs with the more experienced lists will also rank higher in the above list but we are definitely travelling okay at the moment as far as injuries are concerned.

    I’m nervous writing it, but this is the kind of injury list (or lack thereof) that should win another premiership.

    Looking at the interview with Michael Hibberd on the MFC site, noticed Kosi in the training footage, knee heavily strapped and walking with a limp! Not wishing to alarm, but would appreciate an update from anyone who has been at training.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
