    Im assuming the club would know by now. Max would have gone straight to Olympic park imaging from the airport as he lives on the peninsuLa so would have to travel all the way back to the city.

    The longer this goes without an update the more likely it is for a serious injury… let’s hope news comes out soon

    I’m not a Physio or work in the medical industry but have read a number of clinical sites which are all non conclusive but suggest that a grade 2/3 ACL or MCL (partial / full year), the pain will almost always prevent you from walking unassisted.

    Whilst there’s always exception to this rule, given his walking without assistance and what looked like without a limp, suggests there is a good chance it’s only a minor tear to a knee ligament. This is what I’m telling myself anyway to make the minutes go by.

    I think he actually lives in Malvern now GtG. Still owns the pad in Blairgowrie though as a friend of mine lives on the same street.

    He also converted a van with his brother and started a mobile food truck business called The Bearded Jaffle. Knocks them out for $14 each.

    Max ran for about 30-40 metres towards defence immediately after the knock. Is that a good sign? No sign? Doesn’t mean sh iit? Anyone ?

    You can read it both ways. No pain = good, so what caused him to leave ground? Instability = bad. However instability can be from any knee ligament injury = good.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
