Results are in, word for word what I said last night. The medical knowledge has paid off.

    If it's a medial, it'll be, what, 4-8 weeks?

    We're still looking at a minimum of a month of no Gawn.

    Our next eight: Sydney, West Coast (away), Essendon (Gather Round), Richmond, North Melbourne, Gold Coast (away), Hawthorn, Port Adelaide (away).

    If it goes beyond 8 weeks, the next three leading into the bye are all at the G: Fremantle, Carlton, Collingwood

    4,2,6

    I'm supposed to call the doctor about recent CT scan results on my lower back but I'm more worried about Max's results.

    All the best to you.

    I actually teared up when I heard the good news. I need to toughen up!

    Another plus in recruiting Brody is being able to graduate Max's return re ruck and game time.

    No, I think it's a beautiful sign that you're through and through a Melbourne supporter!

    You can bank 5 of those and we should win at least 6-7 of them.

    not sure we can bank any wins after last night's horror show.

    Delighted with this news. Will give the team a real lift after the disappointment last year night.

    Put in our worst performance in a long time last night. Skipper is out with a knee injury and I’m still much happier than I was after last weeks win. 
    I really feared the worst. Delighted with this outcome. 
    Much easier for the team to re group now and get some good results while Max is out. 
    All we need now  is Kossie to sign in the dotted line. Go Dees

    Literally stopped caring about last night’s putrid showing 2.2 seconds after I read Gawny hasn’t done an ACL. 
     

    Rest up and see you in 6 weeks Maxy you big beautiful magnificent beast!

    The journos are running with 4-6 weeks now too. Great news. And probably a lesson there for all of us who’ve been trawling this thread all day. 
     

    Hear hear... get off here and get a life knuckleheads!

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
