If Bowey and JVR are fit to go this week , then we only have Jake Lever out of our Best 22 in my view.  
 

We have had a few injuries but overall our main players have been playing each week.  
 

No excuses at all for our loss last week or if indeed we lose to the Saints.

Any chance J Smith can be moved from the injury list?

He's not injured, will most likely never play AFL again and it just makes out injury list look bigger than it is.

he and gus are senior list players who are unavailable

it's a real shame

Turner gone from 2-3 to Test; that's a nice change.

Spargo gone from 2-3 to TBC: that's possibly a sad change.

Just admit already that you have no idea what's wrong with Spargo and no idea how to fix it. 

Melksham seems to have drifted out a fair way from his KB target.

Might be worth actually listening to Selwyn, if you haven't. Mentioned they'd ramped Spargo's loads up, he was still sore so they intervened (I'm assuming surgery). Hence the blow out of his time frames

March.  Before round zero.

Charlie had some Achillies soreness with a bit of posterior ankle impingement as well and we’ve been able to get on top of that over the last few weeks. He completed a really good re-conditioning session last week and completed main training today, so he’s available for selection this week.”

 

Then he plays v swans

listed as injured before dogs match

now 12 weeks later 

Charlie’s achilles must be a problem.  
“he’s had an intervention and will be off legs right now “. 

what happened? ruptured ??? Strain would be a few weeks so this is a huge setback again to be having an intervention

Not sure what intervention meant.  I also thought surgery but usually they say so.  It’s a mystery still imv

I notice that Luker Kentfield is NOT on this list but was rumored to be carrying an injury.  
Any inside info anyone? Has he trained?

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
