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.

    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 👍

    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.

    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 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.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’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 King’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?
