    Any chance Sylvia will get up for this one?

    I would be amazed if Sylvia didnt play. Considering he was a chance for both R1 and 2.

    Will add a bit of polish in the middle..

    very much looking forward to this week.

    I wonder why Max Gawn is down as "indefinite" as he suffered his knee injury five weeks into the season last year.

    You surely don't take that long to recover from an ACL?

    Because he had been placed on the Long Term Injury list to allow for the promotion of rookies... I still think he is a couple of months away from play competitive football, I could only assume that rehab at TAC level isn't as intense as in an AFL club

    I was at the game and met Max Gawns parents.

    They said he is going well and has been told he can take part in training now, however the club is being cautious with him.

    He will be doing more rehab for 4-6 weeks, then taking part in training for 6 weeks or so and should be playing some form of Football by mid to late season.

    His parents and Max are both very happy at the club and looking forward to finally playing.

    Also, as he is on the Long Term Injury List it is better for the club to say indefinite, to keep their options open.

    What about Meeson?, has been out almost a season now

    Yeah the Meesen one is a real concern for the boy. All I remember is that it was a stress fracture in the foot after about round 4 last year when he'd just started to play some decent footy. Now on the rookie list he'd want to make it back VERY soon to have any chance of pressing a claim to maintain his spot. I feel sorry for him. He looked to have something early last year. He is a bit maligned by some posters, but we all know ruckmen take a long time to develop. Look at Jamar. He's only just now coming to his best at age 26. Meesen I think would not be much older than 22 or 23. Still young and may still have a bit to offer. Was highly regarded as a junior and taken as a high draft pick, so at some stage he was considered to have the talent. I hope he at least gets another crack.

    Wonna has been stranded on 2 weeks for a long time

    I don't mind them being cautious and I doubt he does either after the injury setbacks he's had.

    Exactly. No need to rush him back.

    I'd rather they do the required testing/analysis to make sure that he doesn't have some sort of techinical flaw to his tackle technique so that when he does return to competitive footy he doesn't just re-injure himself.

  • Quote

    Couldn't have been stranded THAT long, considering he did a 4 week injury a week before the season started and we've only had 2 weeks...

    Thanks for that. It makes perfect sense re: indefinite with the LTI, etc.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
