I sincerely trust my contact at Maroochy is completely wrong but he told me Maxy left training today with what appears to be a knee injury. He was in rooms getting attention and in a fair bit of pain. Contact could hear him yelling. Let's hope for the best as nothing out in media as yet.

    Think positive there are alternatives.

    Max is a very good player but having the best Ruckman is not the be all of winning games. Richmond won the flag with a competent Ruckman twice in three years. But let's see what the news brings.

    That's what scares me. He knows all too well what an ACL feels like.

    Hopefully it's only a 4-8 week injury and Preuss can take his role in the very early rounds.

    God I hope there is nothing to this unconfirmed report but what worries me is that no Dees have been posting on social media today. The club on the other hand have been posting like it's going out of fashion.

    Good to hear you being so positive OD. But would also mess up the captaincy as well....i fear the worst. Lets see what news unfolds.

    I am not pretending it is anything but bad news WWS but I refuse to put off the 2020 season on the last day of January.

    Can you find out what time of day this occurred?

    Oh man, I think it’s time for our QLD correspondents to go undercover. A quick lap of the sports complex, if that fails find out where they are staying and rock up as a pizza boy with some pizzas.

    Worst case scenario we’ll hear something from Sunday’s open session.

    For such a high profile player, I reckon we'll hear something tonight, or tomorrow at latest.

    Sounds like a classic p*ss take to me. Does your contact have a sick sense of humour DD?

    Nailed it! I believe there is some ruckman called Brodie Grundy who had 73 Hit Outs and 10 Clearances in a prelim....team still lost.

    Is Gawny an important player? Absolutely! But he is by far, not our MOST important player.

    • Demonland changed the title to Gawn Knee Injury (Confirmed - Severity Unknown)

    This could impact his chances of being appointed captain if injury long term

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.
