Injury List: Round 17

Max Gawn - Ankle | Test
Luke Jackson - Knee | Test
Blake Howes - Foot | 1-2 Weeks
Andy Moniz-Wakefield - Groin |  1-2 Weeks
Daniel Turner - Face | 1-2 Weeks
Joel Smith - Ankle | 2-4 Weeks
Tom McDonald - Foot | 8-10 Weeks

It is weird that TMc is still 8-10. 

Goodwin said last week he didn't know why it was listed as 8-10 when he said 6-7. 

Maybe he is now 5-6 weeks.

 

I think TMc coming back this season is wishfull thinking

From AFL site…

Melbourne has also given important forward Tom McDonald renewed hope of returning this season, reducing the timeframe on his return to "eight to 10 weeks" as he recovers from a foot problem.’

With a bye at the end of the home and away games, that would give TMac some slight hope of playing but he would have to incorporate some sort of mid-season with the next 8 to 10 weeks.

He’s probably an outside chance at best.

Absolutely no chance he is barely walking

Cannot afford underprepared players in a final (unless they are Steven May)

The fact that he’s “barely walking” today doesn’t mean you can write him off for 2022 if the doctor believes he’s an 8 - 10 week proposition today. If that remains the case in 2 - 4 week’s time then perhaps the prognosis might change.

Strange about AMW. He was omitted from the Casey side last week because he was being managed. Turns out he has a groin injury.

Maybe his groin injury was being managed. 


Speculating but...!.Clarry has a Broken thumb and will miss 4-5 with it!

I hope not but....given his level of discomfort, I would not be surprised!!

I can never tell with hand injuries, sometimes they're 2 x weeks and sometimes 5. 

Even some players who have had surgery have only missed 1 week.

Ridiculous to be trying to guess at this now.

Likely need to wait on scans, fingers crossed.

Just bruised, according to Goody.  I hope he's right.

Yeah could have just been a massive stinger that may swell up a bit but hopefully no bone damage. 

Does a GOAT have a thumb? Not sure of the logistics of the hoof .

At least a decent break until our next game.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
