Did anyone else see the topic and thought his hammy had blown up again?

Anyway, Yze sounded really confident on radio that he's on the right path and will playing games within 2-3 weeks.

(I've learnt not to hang off every word Goodwin says in his interviews)

If he can get the last 3 games in before finals, then that would be a good result. Even better if we can knock off Richmond without him.

Don't you mean "when" ?

    He has been out for a long time does he come back via Casey or straight in? Medical sub might be good.

    I don’t think the FD are playing games. I presume the hospitalisation due to infection significantly impacted his conditioning and delayed his return.

    frustrating for sure but the silver lining is he’ll be raring to go and cherry ripe for finals

    Me, trying to be zen and accept that Clarry will be back when Clarry is back:

    I reckon Goodwin is giving us nothing after he told us 10 times Clarry will play next week, when Clarry in fact did not play the following week. 
     

    Yze would be much more in the know anyway since he’s Clarry’s direct line coach, so would have conversations with him on the daily.
    He is probably sage cleansing and praying daily for the return of his star player! 😂

    Got that wrong.

    yep

    Looking forward to your non-laconic podcast.  We love the nitty gritty.  😀

    Yep i think more so on the impact on Clarry and putting indirect/unnecessary pressure on him to be fit and healthy. I think he'll come back and play against Norf and get some match fitness before he is then really tested against the Blues the week after. I found what Yze said in relation to him joining the team for full training an interesting statement as the track watchers have already mentioned that he has been doing that for quite a few weeks. Was that perhaps an indication that he has recovered and now its all about building match fitness?

    • Demonland changed the title to Clarrie Oliver … the saga continues?

    On the socials today there is a video of the full group doing run throughs and Clarry is in there.

    Casey would be a kick in the bum, sub would be a plank across the guts.

    He won't have played for over 2 months by the time he gets back, could be closer to 3. He is not Superman.

    Nothing released officially by the club on their website or socials but this was on the AFL Website.

    Medical room: The full AFL injury list, R20

    melbourne.jpg?width=500
    PLAYER INJURY ESTIMATED RETURN
     Bayley Fritsch  Foot  4-5 weeks
     Tom McDonald  Ankle  1-3 weeks
     Clayton Oliver  Hamstring  2-3 weeks
     Harrison Petty  Ribs  Test
     Daniel Turner  Wrist  4-5 weeks
     Kye Turner  Groin  TBC
    Updated: July 25, 2023

    Early prognosis

    Petty should be fit to face the Tigers after the club erred on the side of caution for the Adelaide clash. Oliver is still at least a fortnight away as he builds his ability to hit top speed, while McDonald continues to train with the main group as he closes on a playing return. – Michael Rogers

    Oliver - not a Superman, probably 426. A wimp?

    He’s way better than Superman. How many All Australian teams and coaches awards has Superman won? None. 
    He is a hack.

    Still shown as 2-3

    Is that weeks  or months ??

    If this is just a hamstring  I'm the archangel Gabriel.

    Best recovery Clarry !!

    • 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
