Yeah, really feeling for the bloke right now.

Hopefully it's not a long term injury.

What mixed fortunes for the McDonald brothers today.

Yeah here’s hoping, Rod. Just looked terrible.

Just landed awkwardly… hyperextension. Replay isn’t nice.

Any Omac diagnosis as yet?

🤞

Just checked - couldn't see anything confirmed - Longmuir said he had to see a surgeon and there was a lot going on with his knee. I guess we might hear something more definitive tomorrow. Poor bugger.

It’s also his birthday today! 🥺

Fingers crossed it’s not the worst news.

Just confirmed by someone close to Oscar that it’s a definite ACL😞

That’s terrible news for him

That’s incredibly bad luck. He’s shown incredible tenacity and persistence to make it and just when things were looking good for him.

They need to put much more water on the grounds early in the season (especially in Perth). Way too many knee injuries.

Really feeling for OMac. Poor bloke.

And separately, I never knew a PLC was a thing. Too many three letter acronyms around knee injuries. 


"could miss approximately 12 weeks with a detached ACL along with PCL damaged"

Also Jon Ralph:

Fremantle says Oscar McDonald needs PCL surgery. The surgeon will also review his ACL while he is in there. Just rotten lock for the former Demon and Blue.

 

 

WHY is this news???

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
