Wow Turner has made a very quick recovery. I thought he had a leg injury not a hip injury? Either way, it's good news if he's only one week away as he covers the loss of Hore.

I am sure he will have to spend some time with Casey, but it's good news anyway.

Also is McAdams just permanently stuck on 2-4 weeks? Are they generating a new hamstring for him in a lab or what?

How the actual [censored] does one have multiple broken ribs and maybe a broken vertebrae and only miss up to two games? 😳 If that was me I’d be out for 10-15 years.

McAdam has come in from 3-5 to 2-4. Baby steps. 

Spargo’s stuck at 2-4 though.

Last week he was 3-5 weeks so there's some movement.

He'll need a couple of weeks at Casey so he's still a way off

"Shane McAdam continues to work through a hamstring injury, taking positive steps forward re-joining the main group.

“Shane is beginning to integrate into training with the team,” Griffith said.

“He’ll continue to train with the group as we build him into being available for selection in the coming weeks.”"

Is it worth trialling Tommo as a fwd at Casey.

The defenders Tmac and Petty have done alright forward.

I'm just thinking if a tall defender like Tmac needs games off then Petty goes back.

If Bbbs is injured we are back with Schache. 

It would be nice to know if he can at least do it and not unrealistic about Tmac and Bbb. ( I so hope they will be ok).

I  think the Port game was the best game in two years for the two of them.

You have hit the answer right there if you leave Petty at FF.

Why move him for Tmac or Tommo or Schache. He will kick goals very soon as he is too good a player not too.

Only move him back for any cameos or if either May or lever are missed greatly.

Also Disco is available next round for Casey return. 

If it ain’t broke don’t try and fix it.

Sorry 58 er you really confuse me.

I try to be patient.

I want Petty at Ff.

I'm not talking about changing anything 

I'm suggesting we trial Tommo for multiple replacement roles in case something happens to Tmac or Bbb which is quite likely. I suggest this because I'm not sure Schache is up for much.

The depth player such as Laurie, Tomlinson etc should definitely be exposed to other positions at VFL level.

The reality of the modern squad is that you can't cover every position and develop players.

Can Tomlinson play forward. Probably not but worth looking at. He did play wing IIRC at GWS in a rather good side.

Laurie on the other hand is a perfect candidate for multiple roles. Could he have filled the Bowey role for example?

I’m convinced Shane McAdams is growing a new hamstring in a lab 


What sort of shocking condition did he come in from Adelaide where he was managed by Burgess?

Bowey is now nearly 5 weeks from when he did his shoulder. An 8 week injury they said....

Yet he's still 5-6 weeks away?

Great news that Disco is back. Reckon he’s got a big future. 

Poor bugger has never had an injury free run.

Prior to the season he would have been next in line - now the resurrection of TMc and the reemergence of Hore has him way back in the queue 

Good luck Disco.

Injury Report | Defender Set for Return

Check out Melbourne's latest injury report ahead of Round 5.

Looking forward to Daniel Turner’s return.

There isn't a spot for Turner, but he'll be good depth.

    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
