He did walk down the race with the team after the game without crutches but had a noticeable limp.

    Is it a suspected PCL, or similar? From a marking contest?

    Fingers crossed it’s nothing serious. It’s grim how much we’re missing him already, but such is life for us right now.

    Hopefully he’s back soon, and becomes a gun, as we traded out this year’s pick for him. Or am I wrong about that?

    Watched the replay and I’m not sure it was a contact injury. Appeared the ACL buckle. Hope I’m wrong as I’m a huge fan already

    Goody's post game presser he said they were hopeful of it not being too serious but would need scans to confirm.

    Fingers crossed for the young man.

    Just watching the incident I reckon we’re in for some bad news which is a real shame.

    Bah.. never before have I been so frustrated by the lack of information.

    I usually fully understand that the club just want to get the scans know before commenting.

    This one really hurts. Sitting here just fearing the worst.

    MFCSS and Norm Smith curse strikes again. Already two in form small forwards done for the year.

    Some of course won’t blame MFCSS but rather Goody, fitness staff, selectors, doormen, board, President or Jeff Kennett.

    Goody said Medicos usually know from examination but they were undecided so they will rely on scans.

    Line ball.

    This was the case with Max last year from memory. Hopefully we have the same outcome. 🤞

    If it is an ACL, it sucks for him and the team big time. It is clear as day, we are nowhere near contending this year.

    If there is a silver lining, he'll be able to return still in season and put in a mammoth amount of physical and fitness work for next year.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
