    I presume he's on an IV to ensure that any infection is nuked well in time for the game.

    They couldn’t miss that night, they were 7 straight at one stage.

    Also, they kicked 6 straight against us on QB in the last. Add that to the 7.0 in the R21 game and it’s 13.0 in two and half quarters. 

    This is another reason we've tried to model our game on theirs and early in the season, our accuracy was very much like theirs in key games last year.

    But much of this is about where their players kick goals from. Often very central positions.

     

    Got to be unlikely to play now must be quite sever to need an IV, don’t understand how a fit young guy can’t fight off a simple infection from a blister naturally.

    I think it is because hard training puts a fair bit of stress on the body and that stress can effect the immune response.

    the IV is just to deliver the antibiotics the most efficient way possible.  Sounds worse than it is.  Could still easily play in 5 days

    I recall a few years ago one of our players talking about how they all constantly manage blisters on their feet. Some of the mids have numerous blisters most of the season, such is the amount of running they do.

    I would suggest Clarry gets enough of the ball to have blisters covering his hands!

    It’s just some antibiotics. Everyone calm down.

    Who amongst us hasn’t woken up on a Monday morning in need of a jab, and then bounced back to be out again on the Friday night?

    Channel flicked onto Footy Classified just in time to hear Maguire make comment about Oliver.

    He could hardly contain his joy about Oliver being in hospital with an IV in his arm. Also scoffed about him returning after only having two weeks of for a hamstring injury.

    I really hope and want the Dees to win next Monday even more now, with Oliver BOG.

    Yep and an overnight stay and iV delivered antibiotics should clear it up quickly. 

    The wound will also get special treatment further improving chances.

    Hopefully his rehab had finished and no more loading was required.

    I reckon it'd be even better if we gave Clarry another week off and beat them anyway.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
