Confirmed by Troy Chaplin it's a broken arm, will have a plate put in and should only miss a couple of weeks.

    I know Epworth are good with treating AFL players but I'm doubting he's been taken there, triaged and registered, x-rayed, diagnosed and had specific plans for surgery in the space of an hour and 15minutes since walking off the field.

    Perhaps an educated guess from chappy on behalf of our medical team but I would wait until a proper injury report before getting my hopes up that it will only take him out for a few weeks.

    They would easily be able rule out a shoulder. And know the tell tale signs of breaks. But yes you can never be 100% sure.

    Is it worth starting the 2026 AFT Draft thread yet?

    I actually struggle with these posts and not directed specifically at you but can’t get my head around posters who won’t get their hopes up until official medical report is released …

    Yet have no issue assuming the worst case scenario until the official medical report is released

    That's fair and I should have included in my post that there's still a reasonable chance it will be a short term injury.

    My intent was more to plead for patience for those that may be celebrating that Culley has escaped serious injury prior to an official injury report.

    Any actual news on how the rest of the team is looking?

    I'm curious to see if any reports shed light on what Kings preferred 23 might look like.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
