Yes we will, but I’m going for a bit of encouraging news from the Β interviews post game. Normally they can call knee injuries very accurately with the test they do in the rooms.Β 


I have done an ACL myself (still have 2 steel pins in my right knee) and I just don't get that "vibe" from Max Gawn.

Nevertheless, we will wait and see what the actual medical experts say.

I guess we will all wait in trepidation and find out after Max Gawn has his scans tomorrow.

Hopefully nothing too serious.

Don’t worry it looks likes a medial collateral ligament injury.Β 

Β 

Looked like a medial but you never know with these things! hopefully get some confirmation of what they suspect soon!

Surely he will be straight at the nearest MRI tomorrow. Hopefully we can get news sooner rather than later. Β 


When Viney went down at training I heard from a very good source that everyone including Viney himself thought he had torn an ACL. He is already back playing. Fingers and toes crossed.

Lachman's test (the test used for ACL) was not positive. Its 95% accurate.Β 

However, Max was walking a bit too freely for my liking. You would normally see some issues with a persons gate when they have done an MCL.Β

That was my worry too.Β 

He was walking around like someone who has torn his ACL.Β

Ditto.Β 

I'm just glad it wasn't his 'bad ' knee. But aything other than a season ending ACL is a bonus now....


ACL is definitely a live possibility :(Β 

On observation of his playing character he would walk and talk like the injury is no big deal. I hope the scans agree.

Goodwin's response in post match presser not encouraging. They don't know.

Yeah agreed. I Kind of got the impression he knew something.

The more upbeat he tried to sound the more rattled he looked. We'll have to wait to see.

Max himself would have a good idea about what it's like to injure a knee to that serious extent. Him going straight down the race and then being dejected on the changeroom floor doesn't fill me with hope there will be good news over the weekend

Correct. Deep down I think everyone knows he’s done his ACL which is why the entire playing teams and coaching staff looked so rattled last night.Β

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fieryΒ interaction between Max Gawn and Steven MayΒ at the end of the gameΒ was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
