Stop it, you guys. It hurts to remember ... such great players, such memories and then we realise their demise and the silent years that followed. Oh, it was absolutely fabulous, so continue. Just reading the above four sentences everything they did floods back at that is a real pleasure. What about Vagg, Bourke and others including the excellence of Norm the Smith? 

I have a memory of Norm seeming to be able to pull a rabbit out of a hat  at 3/4 time on quite a few occasions. Barry Bourke -great on a wing, full forward and back pocket-so reliable. Barrie Vagg-one day in 1966/67 when we were in the doldrums he won the game for us against Essendon at the G with 4 goals- beat both Barry Davis and Alec Epis.:)

 

I love how Taj needed clearance from the surgeon to sweat post-surgery 😂😂

6 weeks for a dislocated fingure is very stiff, especially after working himself into serious contention to make his debut.

 

At one stage last week, the list was a brief one but now …

Injury and Suspension List: Round 3

Steven May - Calf | Test
Daniel Turner - Foot | Test
Kysaiah Pickett - Suspended | 1 Week
Josh Schache - Concussion | 1 - 2 Weeks
Max Gawn - Knee  | 4 - 6 Weeks 
Taj Woewodin - Finger  | 5 Weeks 
Christian Salem - Knee | 6 - 8 weeks
Will Verrall - Pelvis  | 8 - 10 Weeks 

 

Bummer for Fitzmagic2.0 getting in to the mystery injuries.

Hopefully Disco just misses the one week, would like to see him build some great form 

Salem 6-8 means he’s barely played any footy for 18 months. Is it the same knee he had trouble with last year?

Hard to see him making it back to Full Salem this year - which as others have pointed out, will make it 2 years in a row. Far from ideal, he's a key player for us.

According to Doctor Laura it is the same knee.

This time a little over a week ago, we had only Taj Woewodin on the injured list (and Kozzie suspended). We now have, in addition to the official list, Joel Smith on the injured list (again!), James Harmes on personal issues and there’s still a cloud over Steven May. Mind boggling how much the list has grown in a week.

I can’t understand why the Club doesn’t accept that his body is more suited to lawn bowls than footy.


Joel Smith has spent more time on an injury list than on a footy field. Gotta feel for him.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
