May Misses Melbourne Training Following Police Visit
Melbourne’s AFL team faced a setback in training following a recent police visit. Several players, including veterans Jake Melksham and Christian Salem, were limited to running laps during a match-simulation session. New recruit Changkuoth Jiath also participated minimally, while Jack Viney dealt with Achilles soreness.
Upcoming Court Appearance
The players are set to appear at the Frankston Magistrates Court on February 20. This development has raised concerns among fans and analysts alike.
Leadership and Confidence
Despite these challenges, Melbourne captain Max Gawn remains optimistic about the team’s future. Gawn expressed his confidence that the Demons would not only secure a place in the top 10 but also vie for the premiership.
Gawn’s Predictions
- Believes the team can go “the whole way.”
- Noted a lack of external support in predictions, which he sees as a positive.
- Recalls making a bold prediction in 2013, when the team struggled significantly.
In 2013, the Demons only won two games, finishing 17th in the league, just above Greater Western Sydney. This history suggests that predictions for the Demons can sometimes serve as a motivational factor.
