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.

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.

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

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne
