Just came in to make sure everyone is panicking. ✅

Carry on!

 

Given the issues that affected Max’s fitness in the latter half of 2022, any problem with his hamstrings needs to be managed properly. I’m sure our coaching, medical and fitness people will be right on top of this and they’ll do what’s necessary in his interests. 

7 news - apparently Brayshaw is cooked too 

 

Well I’ve read all I needed to. Remove Gawn from the banner and add Jake spencer via ssp. And if brayshaw is reportedly cooked let’s see if Dom Tyson is available too.

Gone for scans too

mfcss rampant for many

Scans sounds a lot better than carried off on a stretcher.

"Treatment for Angus Brayshaw on an existing injury" was all that was mentioned

Didn't specify scans etc

a hammy strain for Gawn is clearly bad news given his age and importance to the side. the next block of preseason 4-5 is arguably the most important so let’s hope it is very minor. 

with Schache pretty much our only real option after Grundy, and a poor one at that, we need a bit of luck with injuries in the ruck department

Settle down, it’s a hammy not an amputation.  He would miss 3 weeks if they were playing but will more than likely be back running in a week

my understanding is hamstring injury time is related to age of player and size of hamstring.

given it's maxxy (whose hamstring is longer than my whole body) this could take years to heal 🥵

I had a pimple once and it took years to heal..

Doubt he will be running in a week, maybe a light jog or walk.

Agree though, hamstring awareness would usually just require an easing off and short term modifications to training.

In the old days of no hydration, they would be told to run it off and probably tear the hamstring. Sports science has come a long way over the years.

I was going to bring in Strawbs and resurrect John Lord... for the next game.

John Lord for me.  Ye olde Number 4 could also take grabs down forward and slot a few goals. He could also bring it to ground for Barassi, Ridley and Adams-all renowned goal kickers. Hassa would also be lurking close by!

Picket as Black Night changes to day and Smoke on the Water clears as you travel to Casey Fields, Highway Star pumping on the 8 track, beware of Space Truckin' as any Speed King may get you a ticket.

 ps. Can we confirm if Max will be hummin' or hamstrung?

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
