    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.

    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.

    Gee can’t help but feel Spargo’s ages off, sadly. 

    But good news on Turner and Melksham might be back not far after the bye!

    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.

    It's unfortunate for Spargo that his Achilles is his weak spot.

    Good one Hector

    PS On reflection Jason's voyage pre-dated the seige of Troy but I like the segway

    Apparently Achilles was an argonaut.

    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?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
