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. 🤞

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.

  • 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.
