A nasty injury to come back from. Not a short recovery either.

It's always been his weak spot.

i saw 6-12 weeks from now nominated as a likely timeframe, so back before gil's round a chance

I think the article on afl said 6-12 months if we are talking about Todd Marshall

I hate to see any player cop that sort injury, particularly in the preseason.

ah, i read it on the sun website first and they were saying 6-12 weeks; presumably they actually meant months

i did think 'that's a quick recovery'

Yep ... can relate to that.

Coughing and laughing weren't great either.

Yeah coughing, laughing, hiccups even just deep breaths.
All not ideal.

Thanks for the invite!🤪

Feel for Todd Marshall, good player who could be great if his body would hold up. The Dee’s have had their fair share of those.

Jack Lukosius should be a logical replacement for Marshall as that third key forward option.

Good bit of recruiting in hindsight by Port.

lukosius is a strange one

he went from a precocious talent to an atrocious one

Well whoever that tackler was should be unleashed on Maynard next season

For a second I thought you meant unleashed to Maynard for doing such a thing!

The good old Feral Hun.  Sometimes I think they are not even sure when they are peddling disinformation, misinformation or simply making a mistake (which I think they did this time)

Sensational reporting Ethan!

Cracked ribs are worse than tennis elbow.

But golfers balls is no laughing matter for sure.

As for Achilles injuries, time wounds all heels.

I am concerned that while ribs heel quickly, if it's the same ribs compliments of Moore's knee, is it likely to happen again?

Do they become as good as prior? 

I think all of this will test Tracc's mental fortitude. 

It could impact his confidence in his body and thus his game.

Oh Cwood you pack of t#76$, another gift from them that keeps taking.

And to think there were rumors about Tracc joining them.

That game where Tracc was injured, was a missed opportunity to repay a few debts.

 Shame.

In three consecutive losses against Collingwood:

1) We've lost a club great due to a crude hit

2) We lost out best player for the second half of that season, effectively ending our season at the time

3) Lost our gun small forward live wire for the first 3 games of the next season, potentially threatening our W/L record to start the 2025 season.

What's next?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
