He's trained all season with a mountain of tape. I'd have a pretty simple rule, if you want to train you can't be taped up. Come back when you've fixed it.

Anyway, as a Brown skeptic I'm sad for him but hopeful the Weid gets his chance alongside Jackson and either Fritsch or possibly a ruck/wing/forward McDonald. 

The 3 big talls up forward was never going to work.

    At any given point, this will exclude more than half the list.

    “Following scans on Monday afternoon, it has been decided that we will get the opinion of knee specialist Julian Feller to determine the best course of action,” General Manager of AFL Football Performance Alan Richardson told Melbourne Media.

    “The club will be in a position to provide further information following Ben’s consultation on Wednesday.”

    As long as it isn’t a new injury, i am not concerned yet. 
     

    Sir, i knew nothing about his previous knee concerns, what makes you think it is ok if it is the injury from last season?

    I have it from a current AFL coach that recruiting Brown was a mistake, and that given current trends in tactic, we'd be better off without him. 

    And, no, I'm not going to reveal the sauce. I've already rounded it down to 18 people out of 25 million.

    I like this combination...I think it worked well in the few games they played together last year.

    Not a big sample size admittedly but good non the less.

    The concern is that the injury is from a significant impact (tackle from Blicavs) and whatever surgery they performed hasn't seemed to have had much benefit.

    I would hazard a guess and say it's not bursitis so the knee just can't be structurally right in my opinion which means this could be a long recovery period.

    I'm guessing it wasn't Goodwin so maybe we can narrow it down to 17...

    18? Was it Simon Goodwin?

    Pickett, Oliver, Smith, Langdon, Salem all need a rest then.

    So nothing to do with his knee then?

    I’m at panic stations already because of my MFCSS issues let alone the Clarke debacle all of those years ago thrown in on top.
    To be fair people did question the trade for a bloke with a knee injury but most (inc me) thought it was fine if we did the trade. ie we did our due diligence. 
    Fingers crossed for the further review, without him we’re a little fkd.

    Kicking those 6 goals has given him a repetitive strain injury.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
