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.

Goodwin?

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

    He inured the knee last year against Jeelong as i recall. 
    if he needs to regularly see a knee specialist to get on the park, so be it

    Well If the MFC was a movie, it would certainly be a prison drama. We've been crawling through football fields of raw sewerage for 55 years in search of premiership freedom

    Is this just a sneaky parting gift to the club on behalf of "MFCSS hot spot" Josh Mahoney? or the fact big Max'y gave him the 5 goals in 1 quarter G'up on the radio yesterday!

    Also this sound pretty similar to Lever and Gawn 2 years ago, swelling "awareness" following training.

    Daniher kicks 100 for Bris. Brown never gets on the park for the MFC. Lock it in.

    MFC members/supporters just know from our crap history of recruiting so called stars how it always ends in tears!

    Brissie will be licking their lips at the thought of our first rounder. Thanks Mahoney, screwing us even when hes gone.

    Did we get an assessment by a knee specialist before we recruited him? 
    if not, why not given his history in 2020?
    If so was it Big Feller, or some other fella (or, in the current PC world, shelia or in between)?

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

    I don't know why Pickett gets one little band of tape across his knee but I'll make an allowance given it's clearly not a huge structural problem. Same goes for Salem's wrists and thumbs, that's meh. Not sure why Langdon has a bandage on the back of his hand but same deal.

    Smith - absolutely, if you need that much knee tape then back to the rehab group for you. And Oliver I don't want anywhere near contact work until his shoulder is far more progressed.

    Find a photo of Richmond from any of their recent grand finals, barely a player taped up at all.

    What? Like Tom Lynch at Richmond you mean?

    No. Not like Tom Lynch. He's a significantly better player.

    Just have to wait for a prognosis on Thursday and hope for a good outcome.  No need to panic just yet. 

    Worse case we have Tmac to redeem himself and hope that BBB will be on the mend for a short period.

    Why? They've stuffed around with Brown having fluid on his knee for months and then decided in February to have the surgeon take a look at it. He'll have a scope and miss 4 weeks then they'll rush him back for the start of the season underdone

    Jay Lockhart's spent the better part of 2 years with huge tape over one or both knees and has over looked hobbled.

    Obviously half the side were in the same boat for the start of 2019.

    If it takes half a roll of tape to get you through a January training session then something isn't right.

    The list looks in great condition, that's Burgo's job. Managing injuries is mostly up to the doctors and physios. We've been better under Burgo at getting guys in to see the surgeons and being proactive rather than the old process where we've stuffed around for months before fixing a problem.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
