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: 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.
