  1. Injury List Melbourne Robert Campbell (Achilles) - 6-8 weeks Troy Davis (thyroid) - ongoing assessment Jack Fitzpatrick (foot) - 3 weeks James Frawley (shoulder) - 3-4 weeks Jordie McKenzie (groin) - 3-4 weeks Tom McNamara (foot) - 3 weeks Cale Morton (finger) - 4 weeks Michael Newton (hand) - 1 week Jack Trengove (ankle) - test Lynden Dunn (hamstring tightness) is this week's phantom injury.
  2. The interestng comparison is the one to be made from the last injury report - Robbie Campbell (achilles) - 2-3 weeks (two weeks ago) should be 1 week but is 4 - 6 weeks (gone backwards) Jack Fitzpartick (foot) - on crutches (but not on injury list two weeks ago) (gone backwards) James Frawley (pectoral) - 10-12 weeks (two weeks ago) should be 8 - 10 weeks but is 6 - 8 weeks (better than expected?) Jordie McKenzie (groin soreness) - (not on injury list two weeks ago) now 1 week (I'm skeptical) Cale Morton (broken finger) - (not on injury list two weeks ago) is 4 - 6 weeks (we'll see) Michael Newton (broken wrist) - 6-8 weeks (two weeks ago) is 4 - 6 weeks (on track) Ricky Petterd (hamstring/back)— 1-2 weeks (two weeks ago) should clear to play but is 1 - 2 weeks (no improvement)
  3. No Scully, Jones or Morton on Friday night. Anyone doubt that the credibilty of the injury list is in tatters?
  4. And so it begins again ... everyone who has followed these pages in the past would know that I have an issue or two with injury lists that aren't ... um ... well ... entirely accurate. According to this, we have 42 players fit and available for Friday night. If that's the case, then Jack Fitzpatrick who was on crutches and had one foot in a moonboot last Friday has recovered from whater he had wrong with him. FWIW, here are the official injury lists of the teams to play this week in Adelaide. Melbourne Robbie Campbell (achilles) - 2-3 weeks James Frawley (pectoral) - 10-12 weeks Michael Newton (broken wrist) - 6-8 weeks Ricky Petterd (hamstring/back)— 1-2 weeks Adelaide James Craig (hamstring) - TBC Chris Knights (corked quad) - available David Mackay (groin) - 3-4 weeks Andy Otten (ankle) - test Sam Shaw (back) - 2 weeks Bernie Vince (knee) - 3 weeks Will Young (shoulder) - 4 weeks Port Adelaide Travis Boak (appendix) - 2-3 weeks Jason Davenport (shoulder) - 2-3 weeks Hamish Hartlett (hamstring) - 1-2 weeks Ben Jacobs (glandular fever) - TBA Matthew Lobbe (dislocated shoulder) - 10 weeks Andrew Moore (groin) - ongoing assessment Ben Newton (ankle) - ongoing assessment Simon Phillips (shoulder) - 2 weeks David Rodan (knee) - indefinite Jay Schulz (hamstring) - 2-3 weeks
  5. Article from the Sunday HUN looks at all of the AFL teams as they go through the pre season - SUMMER SIZZLERS On most of us an extra 6kg's would really fatten us up. On Cale, he might not look very different!
  6. Report in the Sunday HUN says the club is planning an end of season trip to Ireland this year. According to Scotty Palmer's Punchlines there will be an exhibition game (presumably International Rules) between the Demons and Jimmy Stynes' old team Dublin.
  7. Rookie Dan Nicholson was called "Nicho" at training the other day. How's that for inventiveness?
  8. COMEBACK ruckman Robert Campbell has suffered an injury setback with achilles tendinitis restricting his pre-season. Injury hinders Demon Robert Campbell's return
  9. Robert Campbell grabs second chance
  10. The final training session of the year takes place this morning at Casey Fields. It's a busy time the week before Christmas but it would be a great present if we could get some reports from the training track, Thanks in advance to those who live down that way.
  11. During the VFL finals he was thrown forward a couple of times and kicked goals. In fact I think he mightnhave been playing up forward in one of the finals when he injured his ankle.
  12. We certainly can drag it out to 20 pages and don't be surprised if it really starts rocking about round 2 next year when we play the Dorks. While you're at it why not take a squizz at the Dorks training threads and let us know how Cam, Fetta and PJ are traveling? Whether or not he campaigned against the trip, his absence from the team at a time when it was struggling to make up numbers surely would have been noticed around the club. It sounds very much as if he had already made up his mind and was waiting for another club to make him an offer.
  13. Waiting with bated breath on reports from this afternoon's training/Xmas Party at Casey Fields.

  15. There seems to be a lot of posturing going on between clubs in the lead up to the draft. Some of it is there to put others off the scent. Don't think Heppell is going to be available for us at 12.
  16. Closest to the pin ... 12. Ben Jacobs 33. Lucas Cook 50. Ben Newton 53. Pass
  17. The next open training session is: 9:00am - Friday 12 November - Gosch's Paddock (Corner of Punt Rd and Olympic Blvd) Source: mfc site
  18. Ditto and thanks.
  19. The boys start full training today but I'm not sure exactly where. I've had it up to here (points to neck) with stories about who's not playing for us in 2011. If anyone's going/gone to training, I'd like to hear about that!
  20. Seating arrangements are going to be interesting with three clubs at the same venue. Whose cheersquads sit behind the goals?

  22. Is it in Mandarin?
  23. Latest news is that the Hawks are meeting Hale and his wife today. Unless she's as stunning as Pia Miller, I reckon Hale's on his way to us.
  24. Brisbane Lions have lifted Fev's club suspension after police decided not to lay charges.
  25. Siren ... Devastated. This is worse than yesterday!
