    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.

    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.

    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?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
