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.

That is fabulous news for XL and the club, as I mentioned earlier it was a real downer yesterday at the ground to lose him so early.😁💕

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
