I hope they give Moloney, Rivers and Bartram the rest of the year off. What's the point in rushing them back, given their injury problems, when the year is already gone?

None of them are fighting to stay at the club, as when fit, they are quite clearly in our best 22.

Better than it's been this season. The comments on Injury Update regarding Rivers and Moloney aren't great though, and seem to raise a query over their return ETA.

Very disappointing that Bartram is looking like missing most of the season after having such a great start in '06. I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.

 

no word on wheels? does that mean he'll pop in this week?

also seems odd that neitz would have a test for his finger injury, either it's a smoke screen or it's a decent bloody finger injury, the man is a machine for crying out loud

Selection of Newton might come down to Neita's fitness.

I'd love to see them both play alongside Robbo, Bate and Sylvia, but I don't think we'll go that way.

We already struggle when the ball hits the deck in the forward line, particularly with Davey being played up the ground.

The interesting thing about injury lists is the comparison between us and our opponents this weekend:-

ESSENDON:

Courtenay Dempsey (hamstring) - test

Dean Dick (arm) - 2 weeks

Jay Neagle (foot) - 3 weeks

MELBOURNE:

Ben Holland (nose) - test

Travis Johnstone (Achilles) - test

Brent Moloney (groin) - test

David Neitz (finger) - test

Jared Rivers (groin/back) - 1 week

Adem Yze (groin) - 1-2 weeks

Daniel Hughes (groin) - 3-4 weeks

Clint Bartram (knee) - indefinite

Dempsey, Dick and Neagle would have played a handful of games between them while our injury list tallies hundreds of AFL games experience.

a quick count, and it is late, but i reckon its over a thousand games of experience there...

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
