I don’t quite get the comment about the Weed and BBB getting through the VFL unscathed and then still having their names on the injured list with “1 week” and “1 to 2 weeks” respectively. If that applies, surely you’re not going to play either AFL or VFL?

Just turned 18 according to the Dandenong Stingrays. No: 22 Name: Mac Andrew DOB: 12/04/2003 From: Berwick FC / St Joseph’s College

Given the way it’s being reported - Injury List: Round 4 Sam Weideman (leg) — Available Ben Brown (knee) — Available James Harmes (wrist) — 3 Weeks Marty Hore (knee) — Season Aaron Nietschke (knee) — Season

Expect the Suns might be interested mid season.

My understanding is that Collingwood’s salary cap situation is far from resolved and they would have to move a few pieces around to make a huge offer for Trac. Then the question is what do they offer Melbourne? Darcy Moore plus a future first rounder? From Melbourne’s viewpoint, I think the likely retirements and delistings leave us well placed to make fair and reasonable offers to retain our star players and remain active in trading.

The way the game is played today with the longer quarters and with the way our team is set up at the moment, if the Cats try keepings out it will come a cropper. We almost beat them as it was last year. We would run over them if they tried it next week.

Hopefully, we can get the kicking yips under control (both for the women and the men) and we’ll enjoy our wins a lot more. Having said that, it was never in doubt! 😀

Rod was fantastic for us that year and if only he had remained fit for the entire season? Perhaps he might have overcome the difficulties of his youth at a new club and in a more caring environment. It was also a case of one door opens because if my memory serves me well, his injury and departure from the team paved the way for the debut of Allen Jakovich.

Looking much better this week even though M. Brown, J. Smith and Lockhart have nowhere to play and Jay's prognosis got somehow changed from "testicles" to "groin". Injury List: Round 3 Mitch Brown (calf) — Available Joel Smith (finger) — Available Jay Lockhart (groin) — Available Sam Weideman (leg) — 2 to 3 Weeks Ben Brown (knee) — 3 to 5 Weeks James Harmes (wrist) — 5 Weeks Marty Hore (knee) — Season Aaron Nietschke (knee) — Season

Daisy Pearce (medial collateral ligament) — TBA

Anyone know yesterday’s attendance?

Just you wait. The day will come when our goal kicking clicks and we’ll have a real day out.

Amazing the turnover of players. Expect at least half a dozen from that team to be missing next week.

I like this one in particular - “That was [censored] poor. Melbourne looked like Richmond in their golden era”
