I get tendon - but has it actually ever been quoted as such? They said it’s near tendon but nothing definitive. In that context a retweak makes more sense that it being tendon and the nobody from the club saying as much.

 

I heard them say, tendon with two hamstrings muscle involved. 

If a typical Hammy, there is no way he would have been running at all, after the injury.

I'd say, a bit of hamm but with a tendon strain. I would also suggest that is why he became frustrated as tendon don't feel much at the time, but flair the next day, after some exhaustion.

Hams always give some awareness, tendons not so much.

Both, and diagnosis, prognosis and treatment, means complexity.

Not making light of a tragic event, but I read this banner on the below news.com article about 10 times and I still can't work it out. Pretty poor quality control. AI journalism is alive and well I suspect.

Surely not a game at Casey if he is injured.  Either fit to play or not.

I reckon Fritsch might be back for the last game of the season. Listed as 4-5 so it is possible.

He’ll be back earlier than expected if his rate of progress remains as it is now, and it likely will.

They regularly take the boot off to check that he’s tracking as expected, then replace the boot. Last week they took the boot off fully intending to put it back on after examination. All were surprised and delighted when it was decided the boot can stay off. This is ahead of time.

Been waiting for an update from you. Thanks 😃

I think if he can get in for a game pre finals it's a win.

Along way under the Radar but how massive would it be if Tom MacDonald came back in fine form. Unlikely I know but if he can run he would be putting the Heeby Jeebys into Collingwood Brisbane and Port.

Been done to death, but gee Oliver’s is strange. Been back full training 2 weeks, on the back of a 4 week training block. His hamstring must be able to cut through steel by now it is so well conditioned.

On the injury front, the blues are pretty hard hit.

In terms of our game against them, best 22 blues plsyers who are def out are Cerra, McKay and Kennedy.

And Walsh is listed as one to two weeks, so in doubt.

Big outs - particularly if Walsh doesn't get up as their midfield is their key strength and their game is based around winning stoppages.

No Cerra and Walsh, and hopefully clarry coming back in, gives us a big edge in the middle.

Cardinal rule in football is take things one week at a time. We’re playing North Melbourne this week - let’s concentrate on that game. 😀

I don’t think Pies, Lions and Power could care less.

The Kangaroos expect Goater to be cleared to play in Sunday's clash with the Demons, despite being subbed off last week.

Bonar, Hall and Perez could all return at some level, but will also need to undergo fitness tests.

The club is still awaiting more information before clearing Coleman-Jones after a second concussion of the season.

Shiels and Wardlaw are still at least a week away.

Charlie Lazzaro (back) and Tom Powell (knee) made their comebacks through the VFL last weekend.

Isn’t their coach making a comeback too.

I am a great admirer of Tmac, he has been a terrific contributor and a premiership player ..... but ..... sadly, I doubt he'll play another senior game.

I guess I shouldn't say the hawks are in good shape injury wise and Rampe and McInerney are doubtful for round 24

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
