    At the bottom of the HS report on Daw, this was also added -

    “Brown is expected to miss several months after knee surgery” 

    several months?!? ... so much for back running in 4 weeks as mentioned by Richo.

    Wonder I'd they've mixed that up with Weideman?

    The injury is about 1/2 weeks old and 6/7 weeks will make it about early April and 8 weeks as in the HS article on Majak Daw.

    It was advised  running is expected to commence about halfway through.Ie 4 weeks.When BB was injured and operated on.

    Where does it say anywhere or refer to any  alteration of running commencement or any extra surgery ?

    BUT somehow 2 D/L ers are all in a tizz about his expected 8 weeks out.with  2 drama queen negative comments and ideas that there are changes with BB's injury schedule. I refer to Bris De and Dcutter!. 

    We are always upset by injuries but it does not help with wild off the cuff posts   Which are not even mentioned and lead to further negativity for others to Have to Read.

    If there is any change the Club would be all over it and the HS accordingly informed as would our website!!

    Let's await any Club  info and not overreact to a one line report as an add on to another news item in the news media.

    Richo this morning: "‘Browny’ with a cartilage. We’re hoping that he’d be back between Round 4 and Round 6. It will depend a little bit on how he responds to his program."

    Standard Melbourne FC. There’s a reason MFCSS exists, and it’s entirely warranted unfortunately.

    Surely that 4 weeks was when he started running again, not playing at his optimal level. 
    so not much changed

    That's what I understood.  No way to stop the doomsayers from doomsaying.

    When did the club ever say that? There was no way of knowing how long it would be until he had the surgery and the only time frame I’ve ever seen from the club is 4 weeks until he’s back running.

    He has a bad knee, it was never going to be a super quick recovery. Whether he’s out until round 2 or round 6 is probably dependent on what happens when he starts running again.

    I don't remember the exact language used, but is it possible that the club meant 4 weeks from the beginning of the season proper?

    Ben’s availability for selection will be determined on how well he responds to the rehab program. We are very confident though that we can build Ben back to full fitness and we will see him in action during the early rounds of the season. 

    “We anticipate Ben will be in a position to commence running four weeks following surgery.“

    ——————————

    A general rule is ready to play after the same time training as off legs. Which is another month, so early April which is the early rounds of the season. Rounds 2-3 might’ve become 4-5 but that’s still in line with the reported timeline.

    today is 2 weeks. 4 weeks is 1st march which is almost 3 weeks before round 1 (20th March)

    making round 1 unlikely, but round 2 a good possibility.

    now saying round 4 to 6!

    what changed?

    In answer to your question: Nothing. 

    Feb 4 plus weeks is Feb 18, not today (sorry to quibble over 1/2 a week).  But I think that pushes your range to "round 2 unlikely, but 3 a possibility". Round 3 is not much different to round 4.  And you have him regaining match fitness etc faster than most would assume.  So 4 -6 was always on the cards.

    Nothing changed dc but you well know the second language kicked in early on.

    Oh come on Sue. Not the dreaded 4-6. I didn't realise it was career over.

    They could probably rush him to round 2 with no match practice but he probably won't be able to run out the game very well, which probably hurts the side even more than if he missed the game - particular if we cop an injury or 2 during the game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • 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.
