Time for a new t-shirt: Free Jurrah

On the other hand my daughter suffered an acl injury playing netball. She subsequently didn't play sport for two years before making a comeback with her netball team.
She lasted four weeks before injuring the same knee and we feared the worst. However, it turned out that she suffered a medial meniscus tear - same as Max.
I've just checked this out with her and she emailed me that the surgery on the medial meniscus tear was a minor operation and much shorter than the reconstruction. She was already walking on it within a week and it was close to fully healed after a month or so although she was still doing physio etc for quite a while. For sportspeople who have access to quick surgery and good rehab facilities, it shouldn't be a problem.
I have to quote her last line to show how long she's been out of the football loop:-
He won't even miss the Ansett Cup if he has surgery now.
In my defence re the Ansett Cup - the last time I went to a football game, and I am not exaggerating, is the 2000 Grand Final. (Ok maybe the Ansett Cup was already the Wizard Cup or whatever you kids are calling it these days)
In the meantime, I wish Max Gawn all the best and a speedy recovery - the surgery is nothing compared to the ACL. The trainers should make sure he gets into the pool as soon as the wounds heal.

Just thought I'd add that its probably time I write another article for Demonland. But perhaps the site is only doing well because I haven't written an article in so many years (and noone really read them anyway)...
(and yay - I just reached 20 posts! I bet I'm the only moderator to boast about a feat like that!)

The day has finally come. Demonland.com now outranks the MFC Official website. The ranking is worked out by their 1 month traffic rank. The 1 month rank is calculated using a combination of average daily visitors and pageviews over the past month. Demonland is now 14th (our highest ever rank) out of all the AFL sites and the highest of the fan sites. The list can be found below.

That's awesome
If I recall correctly, you started this site as web-design assignment or something! You used to have counter at the time of how many hits the site had and we all got so excited when it hit 100 hits, 200 hits etc!
Well done Andy & Dad

Great article WJ. It's great to see something sports related creating such a positive message in a region filled with so much tension!!

Become a Fan of Demonland today
I think that if Demonland gets to say, 200 fans, Whispering Jack must join up

good work WJ. You running or walking??

Thank you for this uninspiring drivel.
You make Yze_Magic sound clever.
The only thing that is uninspiring about this thread is the fact that you obviously missed the point.
Oh well...
I thought the diary excerpt was very interesting and look forward to the next installment.

yes - I must concur - so far this new message board is looking pretty good! And the advantage of being the 71st member to sign up, is that even with a post count of only 2, I am not miles behind the person with the highest post count
Thanks to all involved...
