Ideally Salo comes back in and allows Gus to play in the middle.

Maybe, but at whose expense?

I still do not understand how this is only a 2 week injury. I need 2 weeks rest just thinking about. Poor fella!!

Hibbo will need to be managed throughout the year, and Riv, Bowey and McVee are all in great form, selectors will have a lot of trouble squeezing in all that talent into the backline. I also think we're doing a much better job at bringing our players back from injury so I only expect Salem to really need one VFL game to have him ready for the firsts.

That sounds like a half solution to me ie last year rush back on Casey games  were Riv Salo Etc we know the results and this year it's mostly 2 games to ensure the player is absolutely cherry ripe. 

Yes Mr F you are right about our med and performance teams improved handling so why make an exception for Salo who I regard as talented a player on our list ( refer GF first half especially). I really don't want to see Salo circa 2022 but the 2021 version as a match winner and 2 games in suits that new prescription which is succeeding well. But again we trust our Coaches and FD and Medicos this season of course. 

Apparently he had tightness and they’re doing it as a precaution. Played out the last quarter ok, so hopefully it’s nothing.

Clayton Oliver had scans this afternoon on his left hamstring after grabbing at it in the third term yesterday, before playing on, as per

. Results unknown at this stage, but pleasing he played out the game at least. #SuperCoach

2005 vibes about this season.

Might explain why he's been a bit ploddy around stoppages of late.

Needs a rest anyways and shouldve got one in the game against Norf imv.

Looks a tad cooked.

Is it just my MFCSS. Or can I see

4-6 weeks.                     Fmd 

we played S..thouse and now this


As someone that's had hamstring issues in the past from playing, the fact that he ran out the last quarter says to me that he may have had some tightness or even maybe cramp.

Even if it was a strain, there is no way he could move in the wet the way that he did that last quarter. 

Trying to push through a strain will only result in a pretty bad tear which is where you're looking at 6-10 weeks.

Fingers crossed it's just tightness. 8 day break should hopefully be okay. Could still miss just the 1 week at worse.

We had already subbed Bowey off, but I would lose my [censored] mind if we risked him in that last quarter and he’s injured that hamstring badly. Seems unlikely. 

Just saw tv vision of him grabbing his hammy. Not what I call a good look. What is also interesting is that I don’t recall any mention made by commentators at the time. Guessing it was a very tense / exciting moment in play at the time.

I mean he still had 5 disposal in the last quarter. So he's had a decent crack at least

But yes, surely he either didn't tell coaching staff or If he did then I seriously would hope they didn't advise him to at least try and push through.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • 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?
