Lauren Pearce out for (most of the) season

6/9/24.
Lauren Pearce has been forced to the sidelines with a scaphoid fracture. 

Ruck Pearce sustained the injury during the Demons’ final training session of the week, with scans later confirming the extent of the damage.

“Unfortunately, we will be without Lauren for an extended period, due to an injury she sustained in a spoiling incident on Thursday,” Mulholland said.

“Lauren will require surgery and at this stage, we expect her to be available to play again in six weeks.

“It’s really unfortunate news for Lauren, but we know she will attack her rehab with the utmost professionalism, and do whatever she can to help and support her teammates from the sidelines over the coming weeks.”

    Huge loss, especially with Tayla out. Good opportunity for the younger talls to stand up

    Yes. Its GEORGIA CAMPBELL’s time. 
    I’m unclear if the Dees can sign an injury replacement for the ruck !!!

    I thought she was an absolute key to our win last week  - really bad loss. All the best to her.

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
