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.

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: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
