Well having Milkshake & Marty Hore available will definitely make Casey that much stronger and hopefully Will Verrall, Jake Bowey and Harrison Petty will be OK, not sure about Christian Salem or Benny Brown.

    The good news and the bad news. The injury list is narrowing and hopefully, a number will pass their tests. The bad news is that a couple of them aren’t likely to pass their tests.

    Injury List: Round 17

    Marty Hore — calf / available
    Jake Melksham  — knee / available
    Jake Bowey — general soreness / test
    Ben Brown — knee / test
    Harrison Petty — hamstring / test
    Will Verrall — concussion / test
    Christian Salem — knee / test
    Charlie Spargo — Achilles / TBC
    Christian Petracca — spleen / indefinite

    Maybe Harrison is hamstrung by his ankle?

    And WTF is general soreness Bowey?  Presumably hiding something. 🙄

    Bowey was a late withdrawal with a corky in his back. I'd say his soreness has something to do with that

    Can anyone confirm if Charlie Spargo is actually alive?

    Has he been spotted in rehab groups at training?

    Why is Trac “indefinite” and not “season”?

     

    The injury isn’t a season ending injury and he would be a potential in the unlikely event that we made the prelim or GF..

    I would cut out my own spleen if Trac played again this year. It won’t happen even if we make the Grand Final.

    I imagine they are not sure of when he will be back playing based on the injury

    Two of our best players are out, with the next 3 weeks being a massive challenge.

    They probably allow for the possibility that he'll do something stupid like trying to play with broken ribs and a dodgy spleen, much like Max wants to play before his leg heals properly.

    Maybe we can rise to that challenge.

    It’s being reported that Charlie Spargo requires an Achilles operation and is out for the season.

    Hoping for a successful surgery and rehab and looking forward to seeing him out there in the preseason.

    I wonder why it’s taken this long (ie 3/4 of a season) for surgery to be actioned? And it won’t be a quick recovery I’ll bet. Poor guy.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.

    • PREGAME: Geelong

      After a one-year reprieve, the Demons return down the freeway to Kardinia Park — the site of both one of our greatest triumphs and one of our darkest days — as they face the Cats under Friday night lights. This one could get ugly. Who comes in, and who comes out?
