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.

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.

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. 

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?

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
