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.

    No mail but I’d be suspecting acl until proven otherwise

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
