Michael Newton's out 4-6 with a foot injury.

Guess that pretty much stamps Gawn for Friday now if there was any doubt.

Newton out for four to six

Rohan Bail (knee) - 4 weeks

Clint Bartram (hip) - test

Robbie Campbell (knee soreness) - test

Aaron Davey (knee) 6-8 weeks

Jack Fitzpatrick (ankle) - 6 weeks

Colin Garland (ankle) - 5 weeks

Jack Grimes (foot) - season

Mark Jamar (knee) - 3 weeks

Michael Newton (foot) - 4-6 weeks

Jake Spencer (knee) - season

Luke Tapscott (hamstring) - 2 weeks

Add to this Austin Wonaeamirri who is out on compassionate leave and back home on the Tiwi Islands.

I know I'll probably cop it for this, but I feel just about as good as I did hearing the Dunn suspension news as I do hearing this. Yes, never feel good about an injury, but......

HOWE GAWN ARE WE?

VERY! BIRTH OF THE HURRICANE IMMINENT! :blink:

here's hoping they dont bring Dunn back!

Dunn will come back - he's the only one who can play forward and pinch-hit in the ruck.

Whether under normal circumstances he would be considered is another question!

Ditto, I want Dunn to serve his time @ Casey for a bit.

Bring in HOW EE! But I would have replaced Petterd with Howe, but now Newton is injured, I'd prefer not to lose the mature player. So maybe Petterd stays, but McDonald comes in as the big forward for Newton. Gawn to ruck.

Would never wish an injury apon someone, having said that I wanted him out of the side so I guess I got my wish.

Surely there's little doubt now, Gawn's in.

Wow, the ride never stops this season.

To those taking a stab at the guy, I saw more decent efforts from Newton than I did from many of the other players vs Carlton (despite a few very obvious mistakes).

Newton presented probably as often and as well as any other forward. At the moment he is the only player fit -- in a physical and performance sense -- for that position.

FCS, it's only Tuesday and we've already lost two players this week for an extended period.

What puzzles me this year is this strange phenomenon of a player who has played out a game with a little "niggle" that during the next week turns out to be a significant injury. Jamar, Davey, now Newton; Scully (to some extent, I can't remember whether he played out the game) in pre-season.

You should- whatever else he tries his guts out for our team

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
