    Have heard it will be only 4 weeks. Hurt it playing basketball

    Which will very soon be 4-6 if past experience is anything to go by, and we all know what that means.

    Very much hope it isnt an accurate rumor

    He shouldn't be allowed to play other sports when he is a professional AFL footballer. Grrrr!

    Any source for the information that you and Georgiou are posting (ahead of Misson or the Club)?

    Got this off another forum.

    Hopefully he heels up quick smart and can get going for the season!

    Well, that's just made my day.

    FMD.

    At least he's positive.

    I've never liked basket ball.

    ... Roos sounds suitably p*ssed off:

     “Christian’s rehab up until this point has been going really well, but when you’re an AFL player, you need to understand that everything you do impacts your ability to prepare and contribute to the team and this incident is clearly an interruption. ...  It’s a harsh lesson for Christian,  but one we are sure he is going to learn from as he develops as an AFL player.”

    The Norm Smith Curse re-enters the building!

    But then again, I'm not sure he ever left, lay low for a while maybe, lurking to see our spirits rise then jolting us back into the reality of MFCSS!!

    Freaking idiot. Playing a stupid sport like basketball, well there goes a round one debut. 

    The club needs to tell these people, no bloody other sports until their AFL career is done. 

     

    Im so [censored] off at this.

    Ugh.

    Well, we know it's never, ever, ever going to be smooth sailing. It's just another "Oh, you're feeling hopeful? [censored] you, cop this" moment to deal with. There will be others. This one could've been worse,

    A little crack in his picky toe. Everyone needs to calm down. Not ideal, but gee, stop acting like it's major.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
