NOT SURE THE ABOVE GRAPHIC ON THE YOUTUBE VIDEO IS CORRECT 🤦‍♂️

It also is randomly shown well before SG has finished.

 

Insert Fritch where they put Petty's name, foot 3-5 weeks. I think that is the only mistake. 

From AFL article https://www.afl.com.au/news/982153/medical-room-the-full-afl-injury-list-r19

And instead of Bowey, replace him with Petty.

They clearly stuffed up the graphics so I’ve extrapolated the stats from last week’s reports and come up with this:-

Injury List: Round 19

Michael Hibberd - Kidney | Available 
Harry Petty - Ribs  | Test
Clayton Oliver - Hamstring | 3 Weeks 
Tom McDonald - Ankle | 2 - 4 Weeks 
Bayley Fritsch - Foot | 5 - 6 Weeks
Daniel Turner - Hand | 5 - 6 Weeks
Kye Turner - Groin | TBC 

I have a feeling that in the case of Clarrie they went ultra-conservative with his assessment and it would not surprise me if he came back sooner than this.

It would also not surprise me that they are in Bikini Mode, to keep the real extent of Claytons injury at bay, lest an outcry!!

Edited by picket fence

The [censored] went ultra conservative with Danger last year and gave him extra time to rest and recover.

Is it possible that Clarrie is on a similar path? So long as we are winning without him, let's make sure that we have a fully rested and recovered Clarrie back for the finals.

The scene is perfectly set for a couple of Mystery Injuries of the Week.

As far as Clarrie is concerned, I don’t think the selectors will pick him unless they’re convinced by the medical team that he’s right to go. Given that we play North Melbourne in three weeks time, I can’t see that happening until after that game.

 

Harrison Petty's injury. Didn't see it.

He wasn't targeted , was he?

I don't think so. He was more or less landed on. Having said that, I have no doubt he'd be the recipient of a rib-tickler from Tex Walker (amongst others) this week, so I prefer he didn't play until cherry ripe. Two weeks in a row of being subbed out is more than enough. Out, Petty - In, Tommo

He injured himself the previous week during a contest against St Kilda. He looked very sore after it.

Hit the ground hard in a tackle v Brisbane, looked in real pain with bruised ribs

Surely can't play this week after aggravating, or risks same issue again after a bump or tackle

He seems to find a way to get smashed every game. Not conducive to a long career as a key defenders.

Let's tear this place apart!

So Clarry has gone from 3-4 a fortnight ago, to 4 last week, to 3-4 again today. Hope he can actually get back this season.

tendon injury was the rumour from the get go

was probably 10-12 from then but @Webber or another may know more about expected timelines

Just wondering how long our midfield can function well without him. At this point it's looking a bit like a Jack Viney 2018 situation where he may lack match fitness but we'll go all in on getting him right for finals.

I reckon it’s panning out to be precisely a tendon injury timeline. He’ll be back, and knowing Clarry’s intent (vomiting with exhaustion in his first ever practice match), he won’t play like he’s underdone. 

Question on Oliver remains as to whether he is progressing. The communication out of the club seems to be the same for the last few weeks in that he is stuck at 90% or thereabouts. 

@ all the physio's, is this progression normal for an injury such as his.

We all know he'll give it all on his return, but you do need a few weeks-months to sharpen skills, match fitness etc etc. I'd want at least 3-4 games into Oliver before going into finals.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
