Would love a source for this because we are mid pack for Centre clearances and clearances in general

Over the past 6 weeks.  Source is in the 360 analysis linked earlier.  King and Montagna.

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, but it gives an important perspective on Gawn's influence and what we are about to miss. I'd advise to pick up about 2 minutes in when King and Montagna discuss his influence over the past 6 weeks.  We are ranked numer 1 for clearance and number 4 for post clearance, as well as number 1 for clearance scoring differential and number 1 for scores from centre bounce.  Basically Gawn and Oliver have been keeping us in games almost alone.

 

Yes Gawn is a huge gap as we know. He’s a superstar.
 

Love the last 60 seconds on the master blasters. Trac and Clarry are accountable for poor delivery and not kicking to a target or to advantage or indeed giving it off to others inside 50 and running!!

You get Facepalms from @Rhino Richards as well Colin? I thought i was the only one :)

 

Not in this thread yet.

I noticed he’d done it to 2 or 3 other posters advocating Majak be given a game without explaining why he felt that suggestion was out of bounds (or if he had, I must have missed it).

 

No mention of Daw??

I don't get this either, something isn't right.

Gawn 
Turner    
Smith   
Howes   
Daw   
Rosman   
Tom Mac   
Melksham

That is more than 2 isn’t it?

I didn't include Daw because he's been missing every second Casey game.

He missed last time, so next time, he's an "in".

 

We have 16 players over 190cm, 6 of which are injured atm  - Perfect time to be playing the Brisbane Behemoths 

TMac not coming back this year. He'd have to make his return during finals.. we'd have to be desperate for that to happen.

Also great to see 1 week already subtracted from Gawn's return and that most of the players have passed the daunting 4-6 timeframe.

I think we come out and beat the lions without our captain and  all of a sudden we will look invincible again.. 

Wise words, R&br!!

Max said last night he thought he was ready to go next week against Crows.

Clearly not, but injury may not be as bad as first thought.

Max probably argued to the club he was ready to go against the lions!

Fairly confident we can handle the crows without him but its gets more difficult after that.

If Max was fair dinkum last night, then he might be back sooner than the 4-5 games first indicated.


With Majak Daw’s retirement announced today, I’ve left him off the club’s injury list.

Max Gawn - Ankle | 1-2 Weeks
Daniel Turner - Face | 2-3 Weeks

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    Captain Max Gawn has a unassailable lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Kozzy Pickett, Christian Petracca, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
