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: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
