Just came in to make sure everyone is panicking.

Carry on!

 

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: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
