Speaking of netball, I played at Melbourne High tonight and landed badly on my ankle. :angry:

I've had it on ice all night, but the way it feels at the moment I'm touch and go to be right for Sunday.

Irrespective of whether it comes up, I'll be at the game. Rollo, worst case scenario is you'll get that goal umpire we need.

If we have enough on the bench, we might rotate the boundry umpire role among the benchees. It'll keep us warm when not on the field.

    Disappointing Wise...

    Why did you need to mention Melbourne High? Surely the courts at that wonderful, wonderful Castle of education aren't to blame for your injury...

    ;)

    That's bad news Wise :angry:

    Hope you can get it going for Sunday!

    Big weekend for us. I'm trekking to Geelong tomorrow for the clash and am ready for Sunday as are my two mates (Trav & Dave).

    Can't believe we have no boundary riders! Guys, bring along some mates of mates who are passionate for the Dees or if footy is their thing. We need them!

    "I'm touch and go to be right for Sunday."

    bloody hell, wise... :o:o

    between you and cribbes and ruckle and madness...

    it looks like a conspiracy to give poor old rollo a heart attack and an early grave...

    btw, people, there is no after-match function organised yet... :unsure:

    sainters usual people are either unavailable or uncontactable...

    I will keep trying... :rolleyes:

    also, wise, I assume you will post the final list on here ??

    My ankle hasn't come up well today, but fingers crossed it'll be right to go on Sunday. I might have to play deep in the forward line to limit the mileage.

    Blessed_Hands can ruck till Cribbes arrives, then they can rotate for the remainder of the match.

    We're a couple of talls down now, but with a dozen available on the bench we might wait till we see who shows up on Sunday before finalising the line up.

    "Final line-up..."

    glad to see your ankle has come good, wise... :rolleyes:

    last reminder to all...

    bring your own water (to start), sunscreen, and spare footy jumpers if you have them...

    we haven't played at gosch's paddock before, but it sounds like footy boots will be fine, and players won't have to resort to alternative footwear...

    that's a good-looking bench we have there... :rolleyes:

    It hasn't Rollo. I can't even run on it, let alone think about changing directions. :mellow:

    But I'll strap it up and give myself a last minute fitness test before kick off... with a little luck I'll be good for a cameo in the forward pocket.

    Leaving Healesville now, see you all down there.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
