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. 
 

amazing is’nt it? So it’s essentially Petty & Mac have swapped roles. Tmac looked solid today.

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 

ACL? [censored] me. he did an injury round 2 with the blues last time

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???

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
