Tholstrup will be out until mid season I think... unless he is tracking ahead of schedule.

My best guess is the full list as follows:


Marty Hore (broken hand) — 3-4 weeks
Luke Kentfield (pneumonia) — TBC
Shane McAdam (achilles) — 2026
Judd McVee (hamstring) — Round 2 or 3
Jake Melksham (hamstring) — pre-season/early 2025
Andy Moniz-Wakefield (ACL) — 2026
Kysaiah Pickett (suspension) — round four
Koltyn Tholstrup - 8-10 weeks

Is that a guess?

Whats the point of posting if you don’t know

    Well the original post was a guess so was just updating it based on information that has come through from other posters or radio interviews. Don’t read it if you don’t want?

    For example, Alan Richardson said on a radio interview they expect McVee back round 2 or 3 and Ghostwriter mentioned Hore said he expects to miss 3-4 weeks from memory.

    DJ's list is sound based on information from training last week. From the weekend, obviously we are still waiting to hear re JVR, and Petty did not play on Sunday for "personal reasons". Given the players have three days off, I suspect we will hear more only on Thursday when they train at Casey. Also looking forward to hearing how Charles Spargo pulled up after his half at Casey. Melksham must be getting close to having a run also....

    McVee 4 - 6
    Tholstrup 6 - 8

    As per AFL website updated today

    6-8 for Tholstrup is good. When it came out they said 10-12 weeks

    Yeh 4 weeks ago, go figure …

    Tough for them to name an accurate ETA for the type of injury he's got, the fact is come down 4 weeks is positive and almost surprising, I expected to see him hit with the dreaded TBC

    No JVR listed which is positive...but I'm not sure how accurate it is if Spargo is still on there given he supposedly played VFL

    Melksham TBC is concerning

    With Andy MW and Shane McA now LTI's and having been replaced on our list (by Henderson and Culley) may I politely suggest they don't get listed here any longer? Tragic for both of them of course, but it (a) saddens me when I read their names and (b) exaggerates our injury situation given that we were able to replace them on our list, which is now complete at 43.

    Any sneaky reason why Bellchambers is on Casey's list?

    Melksham, Hore & McAdam - that's three list spots wasted on players who are constantly injured. Spargo entering that territory as well. We're just lucky the AFL allowed us to replace McAdam.

    Just a hunch on back up but I'm probably wrong.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
