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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
