    On Footy Classified last night they said it was broken and some time ago and was being ‘managed’.

    I think Edmund inferred on FC that he'd had it prior to the QF but not completely sure.

    Hopefully he did, as he would have played one of his best career games while dealing with a broken toe.

    I am not sure if anyone noticed but he came out really late onto the ground after half time. Did not run with the team, did not do the warm up.

    My guess is that they were assessing it and injected it, and he went on to have a great second half.

     

    Did I mention how passionately I would like to punch Cox in his teeny tiny nuts?!

    Glad we're not heading in banged up as compared to last year.

    In fairness to the club i think we've handled injury management a lot better then what we did last year.

    Can't help when you pick up impact injuries in finals.

    The worse part is even our depth is thin as they're also on the injury list.

    Someone like a Luke Dunstan would have been handy replacement for Brayshaw and even Ben Brown for JVR.

    Good thing we have Grundy.

    People are laughing at this but I’m not joking!

    How lucky are we to have an All Australian ruck just waiting in the wings.

    We are, but nobody is Max Gawn.

    We are cactus without him.

    I didn't realise we had Tim English to come in. 

    Grundy is a former AA ruckman, just like I'm a former 30 year old.

    Jeez, anything else?  

    Grundy being in our team is amazing, I love it, want him to stay I don't care what anyone says.  Glad he's there.

    Those pies hey, that game was a shocker, I have some faith but honestly if we make it past this week it'll be amazing.  Brisbane will be licking their lips at all this.

    Put max at full forward as a tall target in place of JVR and bring Grundy in to shoulder the ruck duties. How.much do you want a premiership medallion, Brodie?

    The subtext there is that he hasn't been trying.!! FMD!

     But what about the umpires or the AFL?

    They had an opportunity after the first bounce to establish what is acceptable in a ruck contest. They squibbed it.

     

    Cox is a dirty dog

    I agree we managed players and training loads alot better.look how we run out games this year compared to last. We have had retched luck with injuries. Also our game style is so taxing , our players have more KMs and bumps and bruises than some other teams

    if Cox did break Gawns toe

    the pies comments are … 

    🤣🤣🤣

    incidental contact 

    a footy act

    Gawn should have avoided Cox’s foot 

    Gawn should never be playing after a prior foot injury 5 years ago 

    Cox will deliver red wine and roses to max at home 

    we hate Collingwood ( full stop )

    Is there a suggestion that the injury to Gawn isn’t new and he has been carrying it for a few weeks?

    I heard that he’s been playing with the broken toe for weeks but it was aggravated when Cox trod on it during Thursday’s match.

    Mason Cox needs to take a long walk off a short pier. He has the goggles all ready to go, he can swim back to the USA.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
