    More importantly, how did your scans go? (If you’re wanting to share of course)

    I have to have another one on Monday but this time ‘round it’s not because they think they’ve “found something” it’s because the images weren’t quite clear enough. My breast-care nurse said it’s pretty much precautionary since what they did see looked good.

    Thank you for asking, Jaded. 💕

    And I love that you ask me if I want to share. Like I’d ever answer no to that question. 😁

    It was an unopened carton. I’m not that stoopid. Well, I guess I am because yeah, it leaked.

    Hashtag rough-arze baggage handlers.

    edit: I actually AM stoopid. Can’t blame baggage handlers when it was in my carry-on 🤭

    In my defence, I got confused since I had to check some things in. (Fun fact: the giant heads bag alone weighs 18 kilos!

    Glad it's out of an abundance of caution!  Hope it goes well 💕

    My God, after the events of last night's game, I feel like I have a massive hangover despite not drinking at all...!

    Trying to piece everything together, it seems the physical tests done on the night were negative but there remains concern it's an ACL so they are waiting on the scans, which suggests to me the concerns come from his symptoms (e.g. he's reporting some sort of instability or pain which would tell a doctor/physio it's an ACL and not something else), or perhaps because he heard the dreaded "pop" or something.

    It just seems like there is some reason to think it's an ACL but the tests were negative which means they have to wait on the scans.

    Bernie wouldn’t say if he didn’t know, surely

    A medial is much more preferable than an ACL, although a medial injury is not to be sneezed at.

    If Max was indeed sneezing, it may well just be knee-monia.

    If it’s just a medial strain we all need to go buy lottery tickets.

    Demonstone!!!  You really got me with this one.  I've potentially come unstuck after the past 24 hours

    Excellent news. Nice work to Bernie also on being able to tie it in with an on air, post playing career name drop too..

    4-6 weeks is standard for a mid range medial.  Max is a pretty quick healer usually.

    Right? And aren’t you glad we stayed ‘til play resumed?! Many Dees supporters left 10 or 15 minutes into the power outage. Not only did they miss that incredible post-outage turnaround, they missed the mass singalong.
    Despite looking down the barrel of a thumping, have never seen happier Dees fans! 😆

    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

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      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?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
