No club updates yet? Assume the scans would be done by now.

"They're hopeful it's not on the high end but they're awaiting scans in the next 24 hours" ...so they're still guessing at the moment

    How do you know

    That is what is being widely reported this year and last year. Respected experts touted last year's draft has being exceptional in terms of depth. We've already seen evidence in that by very impressive performances early in the season by many of the top draft picks from last years draft.

    If they thought ACL or even a chance at being one, they wouldn't let him run and test it. Whilst you cant rule it out - and the incident did look innocuous - i think it still safer to assume unlikely.

    The same medical staff that sent Petracca back on the ground?

    Are we going to start a thread for sacking the medical staff too?

    More than a few on here want everyone at the club gone.

    "Unlikely to face Geelong."

    Never been so happy to hear "unlikely".

    Have we not already spent enough time finding out/discussing that his internal injuries would’ve been nearly impossible to assess for sideline medical staff?

    Move on man.

    Great news.

    Does anybody else get sent a message from the Melbourne FC app only to open it and the story is not showing?

    Xavier Lindsay will be a star. Showed it in his first two games already. Fingers crossed on his knee scans!

    As many know, I posted numerous times last year that he was the player that the Dees needed. Has footy IQ, good pace and ballwinning, with elite skills. Imv Worth trading out our 2025 pick. What was strange was the add-ons in the trade. I think gave up too much

    Bombers - pick 9 plus 2025 third-round pick to Melbourne.

    Dees -2024 picks 28, 40, 46, 54 & 65 PLUS first-round pick in 2025.

    Excellent news we need to hear early in the season. What a relief and more importantly, a prompt response from the media department. I have been sitting on the edge of my chair waiting to hear an update. Thank you.

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
