Apart from our two long termers and poor old Marty Hore who is stuck on 3 - 4 weeks, we could have a full list this week*

Injury List: Round 11

Jack Viney  — concussion / Test

Marty Hore — calf / 3 - 4 weeks

Shane McAdam — Achilles / next season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / next season

* barring one or two mystery injuries of the week and possibly a couple who will have to sit out as carry overs for Sunday.

 

Looking good:

Marty Hore Calf 3-4 weeks

Shane McAdam Achilles Season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield Knee Season

Jack Viney Concussion Test

Viney will play this week, get the next 2 wins and KB will be massive, we will still be underdogs which seems to be when we play our best.

 

We should all give credit our medical and performance teams which I know might be tough for some. As Viney comes off the list this week, we have the smallest injury list in the AFL.

Idk if there’s any truth to this but I’m hearing Spargs has done his scapula and is looking at 8 weeks 😢

He did grimace a little whiles before his whack by Mills. That HIT wouldn't have helped at all.

Get well Spargypants 👍

Injury List: Round 12

Jack Viney  — concussion / Test 

Marty Hore — calf / 1 - 2 weeks

Charlie Spargo — scapula / 4 - 6 weeks

Shane McAdam — Achilles / next season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / next season

My Essendon supporting mate (don’t judge we’ve been friends for 25 years!) is ripping his hair out at their injury list. They have not one tall left.

Okay so by AFL rules, Mills gets 6 weeks then i assume???

Scapula yes, but club saying 4-6. Injured in the incident before the Mills hit.

Viney likely but not confirmed.

All good. I posted the quoted comment at 8am, at which time we knew he’d injured his scapula, we just didn’t know to what degree and it turns out it’s a fracture that isn’t as bad as suspected.

The damage was already done before the Mills incident. Charles himself has said this. But I’m sure the Mills collision didn’t help at all.

With four mid-season draft picks, I'd be shocked if they didn't pick up Tomlinson, he can play straight away.

Fractured scapula sounds a really unusual injury - if it is to the body of the scapula (the flat bit) I think management would be symptomatic.

If it involved the shoulder joint it would be more problematic, and if to the pointy bit at the top, the acromion, I suspect it would be described as such.

In terms of our modest injury list, huge props to Peter, the club’s head physio. Selwyn along with Jacob (the club doctor) attribute this to him.

Pete’s a very professional, no-nonsense type of guy. He’s quiet and unassuming and remains in the background mostly, but he’s clearly doing a fantastic job because luck isn’t the only factor in being able to field our best players.

Onya Pete!


Injury and Suspension List: Round 13

Marty Hore — calf / available

Aidan Johnson — suspended / 2 weeks

Shane McAdam — Achilles / next season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / next season

Injury Report | Viney in the Frame

Jack Viney is a chance to take on the Power.

Sestan’s absence this weekend explained - a minor hammy.

Viney “a chance”. Doesn’t sound promising tbh.

Injury and Suspension List:  Round 14

Aidan Johnson — suspended / 1 week

Jack Viney  — hand / Test

Oliver Sestan  — hamstring / Test

Charlie Spargo — scapula/ 3 - 4 weeks

Shane McAdam — Achilles / next season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / next season

In this clip Mitch Cleary says Viney still has to clear concussion protocols before we can pick him:

I don’t know if that’s because his progress got delayed by the hand injury but it’s concerning that he still hasn’t cleared protocols. It’s been 6 weeks.

Injury and Suspension List: Bye Round 15

Aidan Johnson — suspended / available
Oliver Sestan  — hamstring / Test
Charlie Spargo — scapula / 2 - 3 weeks
Shane McAdam — Achilles / next season
Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / next season


Bad luck to Ollie Sestan who was getting close to AFL selection before the hammy and a mystery ankle to AJ whilst serving his suspension.

Injury List: Round 16

Charlie Spargo — Scapula / 1 - 2 weeks

Oliver Sestan — hamstring / TBC

Aidan Johnson — ankle / 4 - 6 weeks

Shane McAdam — Achilles / season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / season

Yeh.. not very transparent from the club. Probably went under the knife as soon as he was suspended.

Marty Hore is gone for the season with a shoulder injury, love the fella, very unlucky but Jeeeez that has not gone to plan

“He hurt his shoulder at the start of the game. He was able to continue playing, but it kept getting sorer, which is why he didn’t finish. Follow-up scans have shown he’s ruptured his biceps tendon in the shoulder, and after consulting with a surgeon, it’s been recommended that we get it repaired.

“Unfortunately for Marty, we’re unlikely to see him again this season,” Griffith confirmed.

Unfortunately for Mary, we're unlikely to see him again. (you would think)

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
