Anyone know what his injury is? I was interested to see that at about the 15 min of the 1st qtr he came off puffing, hands on knees, etc. Something obviously not right with him. Then the big injury - looked like he got shot.

    On MMM the Doc said he was complaining of shin soreness and pain in his toes. After a while the pain was just in his big toe and it was quite severe - he couldn't put weight on it. After the game they said "sprained foot".

    Broken foot is a bit premature!!

    I was watching on TV from Adelaide and it looked to me like he has torn ligaments on the inside of his left ankle....

    Foot bent under his ankle and having done this a few times myself, I would hesitate a guess and say 6-8 weeks....

    This on top of his shin splints would be pretty much it for the first half of the season!

    Krazy Jay - initially on MMM they were saying pretty much what you have suggested but after the Medicos spent some time looking at him (according to MMM so may not be 100% accurate) they said that it wasn't his shin or ankle.

    I guess we will have to wait and see

    Could possibly be a metatasal, my mate had pain in his big toe and it was from a broken metatasal.

    Either way it means that we are more screwed than ever.

    Can we ask the AFL if that fijian can train with us all year as we will be drafting him come years end.

    MFC site -

    It was initially feared he had broken a bone but Melbournefc football operations Manager Ross Monaghan announced tonight that the injury was not that serious.

    “Aaron had an MRI and x-rays today that have cleared him of any bone damage,” Monaghan said.

    “Aaron has a foot sprain with moderate ligament damage.”

    Davey will have further assessments tomorrow which should give a clearer indication of how many games he will miss.

    - Sun 30th @ ~7PM

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • 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?
