IF he comes back. 
He just can’t catch a break. Lack of durability is really a problem for him. 

Petty is very injury prone.

We can’t be certain fritta comes back this year either . Foot injuries are tricky.

    Don't tell anyone but....

    WE ARE IN SECOND PLACE!!

    Not yet. Lions still to play. But with a big last quarter we can stay there even if they win.

    Geez we've got at least 8 players who have lifted their form from last year.

    I'd include Nibbler there. Add JVR, JV, McVee, Chandler, Hunter, Rivers, ...

    Possibly 3 or 4 who've dropped away, albeit injuries playing a part.

    I woukd actually prefer Schacke, more mobility and a good back up ruck option

    It might have to be this. Brown is no longer the answer, particularly under finals pressures.

    It's a travesty if Daicos wins the Brownlow before Clarry 😡😡😡

    They both deserve it… unfortunately Clarry will have to wait until next year.

    Syndesmosis?

    Athletes are allowed to return to sport when they can perform their sport-specific tasks at game speed with good movement quality and no significant complaints of pain or instability. Evidence suggests that syndesmosis sprains typically require 6 to 8 weeks for recovery, but this is variable.

    And Ben Brown does?  I love BB but the game has passed him.  Once T-Mac is running a lnd fit maybe.  But Grundy can't play that role unfortunately

    My only hope is that Petty doesn’t look incredibly upset so maybe it’s not as bad as we suspect and it’s precautionary?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
