    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!!

    What a complete overreaction, wild and off the cuff? Settle down drama Queen as you so politely put it ....

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
