SEN: Demon out for season



Recommended Posts


Anyone thinking he might call it quits?

I know he has another year left on his contract, but if he's out for the rest of the season, he might think twice about continuing.

Would be terribly sad for someone who nearly broke the consecutive-matches record to be forced out of the game with injury.

Sad and ironic.

For anyone who is interested:

A hernia is a protrusion of a tissue, structure, or part of an organ through the muscular tissue or the membrane by which it is normally contained.

A hernia may be likened to a failure in the sidewall of a tire. The tire's inner tube behaves like the organ and the sidewall like the body cavity wall providing the restraint. A weakness in the sidewall allows a bulge to develop, which can become a split, allowing the inner tube to protrude, and leading to the eventual failure of the tire.

*ouch*

Travis Johnstone (Achilles) - test

Brent Moloney (groin) - test

has he had the hernia all year or is this a recent development? because he has been listed as groin, you would think there is considerable difference in the pain of a groin strain and a hernia...if this is the case, you would think it strange that a previously injury free career has had a number of injuries all at once...

A year to run on his contract, he'll be back next year. where else is he going to make $400 grand in a year. He deserves another year on the list after all those years of service, he just has to earn a game.

Wouldn't mind betting he's gone. One less downhill skier on the list.

If its Neitz then il cry

hope it is get him rested and anyone else that is not well for this year is over.

lets start making in roads for next year.

get newton in and buckly get the young ones in now so we have more depth next year.

lets learn from this year that we cant carry anyone for it cost us

name or no name if you go out for any reason for now on you have to spend 2 weeks at sandy .

maybe the players might fight a bit harder.

neitz,tj, will come stright back in but have they done much to get them back in this year.

with neitz out for a while maybe some leaders may start to show their hands and melbourne might learn how to win with out him.

Does this new development allow a player to replace Yze who will now be on the long term injury list? Can we promote Neaves for a couple of games?

I imagine promoting him now would cost money and be rather pointless if he wasn't actually going to play.

Poor bloke. I know how he feels! I go in soon to get mine repaired. Hernias are hell whilst they are developing (feels like you are continually kicked in the balls..), but then settle down once they are finally ripped through the fascia. Couldn't imagine playing elite sport when it was flaring up!

Dr says I can be back excercising in one week. Probably for a top footballer it would be 4 weeks max as it is only a laporoscopic repair. Not season ending by any stretch - nor career ending. Both of these things depend entirely on other circumstances!

a rookie will probably be promoted on the thursday if they thought he was worthy of a game for the weekend, they wont promote someone just for the sake of it

could give a another kid to make a play of things later in the year

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
