The Goschs paddock surface has to come under scrutiny. 

Why?

Because he may have done a calf injury at the G during a game? Because Lever did a knee during a game? Or is it because Viney is like a bull at a gate and struggles to pull back his load when injured?

The club did an assessment of Gosches and training loads not so long ago, probably to appease MFCSS supporters

    I have heard from my very reliable source close to Max that he pulled up with a very sore calf after Sunday.

    i was told this earlier in the week but was hopeful with the game not until Sunday that it wasn’t as bad as it sounded.

    Yeah there was footage of his right calf getting some attention on the bench on Sunday. He's tough. He's fit. If it was really crook he wouldn't be jogging.

    A whopping 7 dream team points for Casey. I’m very reassured.

    Gawn arrived late to the session at Gosch's Paddock on Thursday morning with Sam Weideman and Mitch King handling the ruck drills in his absence.

    It is believed Gawn may be suffering from a calf issue.

    Jake Melksham did running drills away from the main group as he tries to prove his fitness following a hamstring strain.

    Melksham missed the Demons' 96-point win over Gold Coast with the minor injury.

    Michael Hibberd is still at least one week away from returning from a quad strain but was back running on Thursday.

    Coach Simon Goodwin is scheduled to speak to the media at 12.40pm AEST.

    Swans with Sinclair, Eagles with Lycett and GWS with Lobbe......yawn.   Give him a rest for a week or two and get on with it.

    Pederson in if injured. I wouldn't play him if he is slightly injured at this stage. I hope he is alright but if not then lets see what the rest of the troops can pull together on Sunday. We can still win.

    So the AFL website repeats the HS news was and then the club says he's fine.  We'll see on Sunday.

     

    Won't degrudge Max having a light week after having to carry to ruck single handed. Although TMac was giving more of a Chop out against GC.

    Goodwin doesn't talk BS when it comes to the list and their health.

    He's playing on Sunday. Nothing to see here.

    .... Gawn walking laps is still more training than Buddy has managed this year apparently!

    Read Jane02's comment on page 1 her source is impeccable, Max injured his calf last Sunday. Someone also posted,  Jan Phelan at AFL  tweeted mentioning a sore calf so her source is pretty good too. Cannot say more

    Yup.   Every time Goody has said that, the player has played and been fine.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
