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.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
