Has Petty even done a pre-season?

Did he do a pre-season in the premiership year? Tommo was our second tall that year from the beginning and then did his knee opening the door for Petty, I just can't recall if he was a factor in the pre-season.

    No doubt the AFL are making it up on the run - it is their way.

    Could be back Round 8 (Geelong) or Round 9 (Carlton)

    That is one of the better footy photos I have ever seen.

    Sometimes you don’t need spectacular marks or big hits being caught at just the right moment, to show what this game of AFL is about. A photo that captures not just the moment, but captures the emotion of that moment, can be far more effective.
     

    The look of concern in May’s eyes sent a shiver up and down my spine and almost brought a tear to my eye. It’s the photographic equivalent to a medieval painting by the likes of Michelangelo. It’s a rare gem! (settle down Tim, settle down!)

    Name Injury Expected Return
    Harrison Petty Toe Available
    Ollie Sestan Concussion 1 week
    Lachie Hunter Calf 2 weeks
    Daniel Turner  Hip 5 - 6 weeks 
    Jake Bowey Shoulder 8 weeks
    Charlie Spargo Achilles TBC
    Shane McAdam Hamstring TBC 
    Jake Melksham  Knee TBC 

     

    Whilst this is great news, id still be tempted to give him managed minutes in the VFL.

    In a perfect world we do play him and be 60 points up halfway through the 3rd v the Hawks and we could sub him off.

    I was a bit concerned about Chol's knee after it got smashed by May's ribcage and Van Rooyen's head in the same game. Have seen no media or AGL  reports as to whether he has pulled up ok.

    Real shame Disco is injured as well, this would've been the perfect chance for him to step in.

    Talk about backline injuries. 

    Last year our fwd line was decimated.

    Now we have four quality defenders possibly injured in Disco, Bowey, May and Lever.

    Just reported on Kayo/Fox during WCE/GWS half time that May has 2 or 3 broken ribs and a possible vertebrae fracture - saying he'll miss Port and maybe Adelaide games.

    How the actual [censored] does one have multiple broken ribs and maybe a broken vertebrae and only miss up to two games? 😳

    If that was me I’d be out for 10-15 years.

    If that's right I'd be thinking 4-6 weeks and possibly post mid season bye

    Just reported May has 3 broken ribs plus a cracked vertebrae. 

    They suspect he'll miss both Adelaide games plus more.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
