lovely bit of fearmongering here from fox footy

low grade syndesmosis which doesn't require surgical intervention and could see him return to the side sooner rather than later according to the mfc injury update

    So unlucky. Happened when he slipped on the MCC wing in the last 20 seconds of the game and got crunched by a Peatling tackle

    If Caleb is out I assume Hunter gets another chance 

    Not sure that would have happened if Windsor and Langdon remained available 

    Has a lot to prove imho

    Hunter only played limited minutes last week, so I doubt they bring him in

    Might be a blessing in disguise, as it will give him a few extra weeks off after a very demanding season where he probably played more games than anyone imagined.

    Might have to bring Sparrow back in and play Laurie on the wing?

    I think that's right. Really, our season is shot. We were in trouble from when our list was reduced by two players without replacement before the season even began, and by losing Trac - an absolute key - from mid season.   Syndesmosis can be nasty. Let's get him - and the rest of the team - right for next year.

    A real shame for the kid but the extra break might help him.

    Give Howes a go.

    When one door closed… I would love to see us try Bowey or Howes on the wing in Windsor’s absence. 
    It would be easy to plonk Hunter back in there, but it won’t achieve much right now.

    Howes maybe...sadly Bowey's kicking is rubbish at moment. Used to be good... not so much now..  The wing needs precision...

    Christ almighty we have had some bad luck this season!

    I blame all this bad luck on the person who stole our fellow demonlander’s father’s garden gnome. Didn't that go missing mid 2022?  Our luck has been rotten since then.  Need gnome found, treated for trauma, and happily back in it's rightful home asap.

    Put the Cue in the Rack for 2024

    Did that other bloke from Footscray who plays on the wing make it through the Casey game last week?

    Perhaps we can get him to 200 games before he's delisted 🤷‍♂️

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
