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?

Must admit when XL wNt down and was holding hi knee was a real downer.😢😪


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.

That's unfortunately a bad sign....

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. 🤞

Just taken to hospital with bruised toe.

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: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
