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?

    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.

    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.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
