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

Stress reactions are pretty common, clubs have a good guide on how long they take. The big issue is heโ€™s done the easy part of the rehab - sitting around doing non or low weight bearing stuff. The next month as he builds back up to full loads is the time where things could be really straightforward or face set backs.

Sounds pretty tough to get an ETA on

Cal Twomey says Culleyโ€™s out for 4-6 with bone stress in his foot (canโ€™t embed the Tweet).

Is this new or has the club already announced this and I missed it?

Havenโ€™t seen anything from the club.
It was mentioned he was in a moonboot in a training thread from last week. Was suggested the moonboot was a precaution.

Given that Spargo played in Saturdayโ€™s match simulation, and assuming he pulled up ok (does anyone know?), why would he still be listed as TBC on that injury list? ย Surely if heโ€™s now in full training, they must have some idea of a time frame.

I don't trust the AFL list for accuracy personally... waiting for the Selwyn update


While there is โ€˜onlyโ€™ 3 players on the list who would be considered top 23 players - Pickett, McVee and Tholstrup - we have roughly a quarter of our list (10) who are unavailable for Rnd 1. Thatโ€™s not ideal.ย 

Poor Jai. Turns out it wasnโ€™t a minor foot thing after all ๐Ÿ™

Itโ€™s new. Last week he said he thought it was a minor issue. He also said theyโ€™d only just put him in the moonboot that morning but it was only precautionary. Heโ€™d be gutted ๐Ÿ™

I'd have Spargo in my 23 if he's fit...

So we replace a LTI with another LTI! Classic

I would suggest orthotic insoles for Jai Culley in his football boots.

I wore them in my football boots as another level of protection against having any bone stress in my feet.

However, I am sure Selwyn Griffith and the Demons medical team know alot more than I do.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fieryย interaction between Max Gawn and Steven Mayย at the end of the gameย was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourneโ€™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 Kingโ€™s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
