in 2024 that's:
- spargo playing in opening round when mlies off fitness issues; not seen since with his achilles injury
- lever playing with a stuffed knee since Anzac day eve
- may playing with broken ribs vs crom and clearly not 'right'
- oliver playing with a busted hand vs bears
- petty hobbling around like a 77 year old with a cactus ankle for the last four weeks
- viney's ongoing shoulder issues that seem to have been around for the entire season
- petracca being sent back on field with busted ribs, lacerated spleen, and partially punctured lung

our medical dept needs a change

This football club really disgusts me. It was clear as day he had an internal injury and I said it at the time, as did many of us. We need new leadership on all lines. 

If you loathe the club that much, then give us all a break, leave, and follow another club. No one will miss you.

 

Wrong thread.

I regard Tracca's commitment - despite agonising pain and uncertainty - to get out there again against his better judgment to assist the standing team (performing poorly) to overcome the odds and gather some pride, effort and responsibility with the game. That, folks, is to me, an act of ultimate leadership and attitude. Self-sacrifice in the order of Stynes, May and Gus 'just in case things improved' at the individual level for him by which, he could continue his contribution(s) for their sakes.

I wonder if they will find Harold Holt before they identify the issue with Spargo’s Achilles.

If your list is accurate and I do not doubt your integrity. Even if some of your observations are a little exaggerated (petty being 77) it is a disturbing list. 

our conditioning and medical team plus whoever picks the side each week should be asked some questions.  
it is the same as playing one or two players less each week,  no wonder 2024 is so poor.  Other years it has worked better, but not this year.   As soon as Salem went off, our system could not cope.

Not surprised BBB knee is still a problem.  He was managed and 2021 and then deteriorated again through 22 and 23.

welcome to AFL. Players have to play through injury. most guys by now are carrying a couple of injuries

Viney and May were our two best on the weekend

or maybe we should get Collingwoods medical team with half their list out injured. Meanwhile we have 1-2 key players on our list

what does that mean? they are missing 5 best 22 players. they have more injuries than us

zero excuses for us not to front up

Have they said much about Spargo?

A month ago he was changed from 2-3 weeks to TBC and has remained on TBC since.

Collingwood's medical team must be doing something right given their record over the past 12 weeks. How have we gone in that period?

You mean having half their team out injured? yeah they've been great. They are probably the only part of that club not doing well

We haven't had anywhere near their injury list

[censored] - has Tracc done his Achilles as well! Kid just can’t take a trick.

No more mention of Viney’s foot? Does anyone know if this is his “bad” foot?

They do have the umps getting them over the line in multiple games.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
