Welcome back @Drunkn167. Stick around.

Also a Bluey Truscott winner.

These stats tell me is that things would not have transpired differently in 2019 had we kept Hogan.

Just for reference. The 2018 Injury thread was 24 pages and 584 posts. The 2019 Injury thread (up to pre-Round 14) is 41 pages and 1010 posts. The Jesse Hogan (Proposed Trade/Farewell) Thread was 471 pages and 11,774 posts. These numbers include deleted posts.

Simon Goodwin has just spoken to the media ahead of tomorrow's clash with Fremantle. As a coaching group we wanted to look at ways that we could improve as a footy club. We think development is a really big part of our footy club and we are going back to the core of what we think really drives the development of our team. Goodwin on Lever: He’ll hopefully only miss one week, he’s got some bone bruising from the incident in the Collingwood game. It’s not his ACL so that’s a real positive for us. Goodwin on Hibberd: That plate that he had surgery on just lifted off the bone, he had that operated on straight after Queen’s Birthday so he’ll miss this week but be back next week. Goodwin on Hogan: Steven May will play on him, which we are looking forward to seeing. Two really good players, I think that’s going to be a great matchup for all of our supporters to watch. Goodwin on McDonald: He’s an important player for us, he’s a leader, we play him as a forward because we have a very inexperienced forward half. We need our experienced players out there, we need Tom McDonald to stand up for us and that’s what we are looking for him to do. We asked our players to take responsibility and look at the opportunities. They have looked at their opportunities individually and collectively as a team. We are not going to wait until the end of the year to reset and get better. We’ve tried to use the break as an opportunity to reset and say, how can we get better? We have implemented some things and the proof will be in the pudding. That’s all from Goody. MFC Twitter: https://twitter.com/melbournefc/status/1141850586762977281

Your best bet is https://www.watchafl.com.au/ Depending on how long you are away take out a weekly or monthly subscription. I do this anytime I go overseas during the season.

And the pain of watching finals and then the long summer. At least there won't be any of that evil sweet tasting bathwater on offer.

Time for your long service leave.

Cursed I tells ya.

Do we know what ailments Hibberd and Garlett are suffering from?

Take the discussion to the PreGame Thread:

Which results aid our storming home to pinch the final spot on the 8?

In the coming weeks Steven Stretch will be our special guest on the Demonland Podcast. Got a question for Steven then let's us know.
