Really only McVee as a major loss from that list. Some good players in 20-28 but could be a lot worse

Good to see Hore is a test

    Replaced on list- unavailable for the season 
    Shane McAdam (Achilles)
    Andy Moniz-Wakefield (knee)

    If Milkshake gets up and about this year given all his injuries past and present, it will be a phenomenal effort.

    And I will add, a much needed one.

    At his best he is an absolute gun but he has always seemed to struggle to keep his form constant and play a string of many great games.

    I still believe his injury against the Swans cost us a flag.

    Yea, he's one player but he was in career best form when he went down in an already what was then  a much depleted fwd line.

    Jake Lever - underwent a knee arthroscope and shoulder surgery in the off-season, is tracking well and is entering into his final month of rehab. He will be in a modified environment after the Christmas break and is expected to be in full training by the end of January.

    Seems to be really struggling with his body.

    A bloke that has always gone exceptionally hard at the comp and seems to unfortunately be paying the price.

    I had to see a wrist surgeon about an operation recently and I asked about rehab. When she said, 'Four to six weeks' a chill went through me.

    UNAVAILABLE FOR ROUND 1 

    SUSPENSION  Kozzzzy Pickett (available Round 4)

    INJURED
    Marty Hore (hand) — TBC 
    Jake Melksham (hamstring) — TBC
    Charlie Spargo (Achilles) — TBC

    *Steven May - larynx - TBC 2-6 weeks 

    Judd McVee (hamstring) — 4-6 weeks
    Koltyn Tholstrup (back) — 6-8 weeks

    Luker Kentfield (illness) — TBC

    Replaced on list- unavailable for the season 
    Shane McAdam (Achilles)
    Andy Moniz-Wakefield (knee)

    *Bizarre injury strikes again
    Premiership defender Steven May was a late out for the Dees, with club officials confirming the two-time All Australian had fractured his larynx in an incident at training on Friday. Freakishly, May becomes the second Demon to suffer the injury in a matter of months, with captain Max Gawn suffering the same injury late last year. Gawn took six weeks to recover, however Melbourne believes May's injury is not as serious. May was replaced in the starting line-up by swingman Tom McDonald.

    So we had 10 players out, 9 of whom have played senior footy for us.

    Didn't Windsor miss a few weeks of preseason with a foot infection?

    Would welcome a medico giving some insight into why this would take so long to heal then come back again some weeks later. 

    Hopefully it isn't like Oliver's infected foot in 2023 that just went on and on and landed him in hospital.

    Sheesh!  Don't antibiotics work any more 🤷‍♀️

    We need some luck on the injury front!!🙏

    First of all I’m not an expert but Spider fangs have all sorts of nasties venom or not. They can result in necrosis and in severe cases amputation of the affected limb. 
     

    Hopefully it doesn’t resort to that but some bite related infections  can hang around for a long time.

    Thanks.  I hadn't seen it reported as a spider bite ... not that it would mean much to me.

    Necrosis and amputation is dead set scary - hope he looks after himself.

    I'm not a religious person by any means, but I think I might go to a church and pray for his sole.   It's worth a try.

    Geeez we always seem to have a number of top 22 players missing 

    Whenever I look at other teams injury lists they have a list of players that I’ve hardly heard of 

    Surely we are due for some luck on the injury front soon

    Marty Hore back on the injury list is disappointing. Poor guy can't seem to catch a break.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
