Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin wouldn’t say if skipper Max Gawn had a broken toe, but the champion ruckman will line up against the Blues in a cut-throat final on Friday night.
Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin has refused to confirm whether skipper Max Gawn has a broken toe, but has declared he will play in Friday night’s semi-final against Carlton.
Max Gawn will carry an injury into Friday night’s semi-final against Carlton, but his coach wouldn’t confirm if that injury was a broken toe.The six-time All-Australian remains arguably the Demons’ most important player, and will be needed at his best in front of a sold-out MCG on Friday if the Demons are to avoid a straight-sets finals exit for the second time in as many seasons.
“I think every player is carrying certain things at certain times of the year, but this isn’t something that is going to slow either of these two down. They had a light day the other day, but they will train fully today in preparation for the game,” Goodwin said.The Demons have much to consider, for young key forward Jacob van Rooyen will also miss the match, having been suspended for one match.
