2022 Injury List


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Christ I've spent the day grumpily doomscrolling through the Luke Jackson thread and now this to top it off. Ugh. Hoping he doesn't miss, though 1 week not end of the world. There are bigger games than Port next week in the run home.

Dog act that should be sanctioned.

Buckley chance of that happening. I still remember the Cats ruckman Steven King rearranging Jeff White’s facial structure with a wild flying boot at a high loose ball. He missed the ball but managed to kick Jeff full on while Jeff at 195 cm was standing nearby. Careless, high Severe injury but no ramifications then.

I can’t stand Selwood but anyone who thinks this is deliberate is clearly delusional. It was a footy act. Stupid and careless yes, and the free was paid. 
 

If we play them again, then we will remember.

Of course he didn’t deliberately kick the hand (or impossible to prove otherwise) but surely it is graded as careless etc.

I also remember that as one of the worst acts I have seen on the field. It was beyond careless- there was malice in it.

Crap news that Clarry is injured. Lucky it’s just the one week. Chance for some other kids to stand up and win the hard ball against Port. Viney might have another huge game.

Shouldn’t  Selwood be cited for this? It was reckless, dangerous and caused injury that could force Clarry out to recover. He should get a couple of weeks for what he did.

If Mark Thompson was still coaching Geelong he’d be blaming Oliver’s thumb for trying to break Selwood’s foot.

Hopefully it’s just the one week and we can adequately cover him for the Port game.

A shame he has to break his 130 game streak due to a reasonably careless reckless, negligent, failing in duty of care, kick from Selwood.

How can you play properly with a broken thumb?

1990 Darren Millane.  Played the last month of the season with it.  Every game he re broke it. Plastered it up during the week, played the next game with it strapped up.  Never been a fan of anything black and white but that was the most amazing thing I've ever seen.  He was still marking the ball and playing incredible footy.  Was a huge reason they broke the 32 year drought.  Oliver has Millane - like courage.

Not an intentional malicious act by Selwood but a soft**** one none the less. Hopefully this doesn’t cost Oliver the Brownlow

If he loses by 1 vote there will be outrage! If a kicking in danger free was paid, why wouldnt the match review panel charge Selwood with reckless and negligent conduct causing injury? Clarry misses a week, so too should Selwood.😡

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    2024 Player Reviews: #10 Angus Brayshaw

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
