Its always fabulous when Damo taked the lead xx

Hawthorn have the best form in the league playing a top 4 fixture after finishing bottom 3, fixture was never discussed in the media when Hawks were 0-5 because it never fit the agenda.

It's not just recognizing talent in the Collingwood VFL, it having such a great system that almost anyone can come in and have complete faith in the system. They know exactly what their role is and what is expected of them.

Hawthorns biggest strength is their list build. "Useless picks" as David King describes them will and has built the majority of Hawthorns past and future premierships, D'Ambrosio, Meek, Chol, Gunston, Ginnivan all examples from just the previous season to suit your short term memory brown envelope V head.

As someone who used to be in the medical industry. I was pretty surprised when he came back on. I can say yes we don't have X-ray vision, however we have strict procedures and processes to identify and manage these things. We look at the mechanism of injury, ribs sustain injuries in two ways, by overall force (G Force) and direct trauma. In his case the knee of Moore hit with the point, meaning the chance of fracture and internal injury raises significantly. By testing each rib individually we can pretty quickly determine the number of injured ribs, when you determine two or more ribs are fractured in succession the chance of internal injury is very high. Potentially the lung puncture was so small his breath sounds were equal however with retesting this should have been picked up. I would be absolutely astonished if the Melbourne Dr didn't express major concern in him going back on. However the Dr does have the power to overrule coaching and players and I think an investigation into why the Dr didn't use those powers in this case needs to be addressed. To somewhat answer your question if he had been exposed to further trauma in that game it genuinely could have been very very nasty. His lung could have easily been severely damaged to the point he developed a tension pneumothorax, which basically happens when air gets trapped in the plural space, outside the lung where it's supposed to be. This is a life threatening medical emergency, it's extremely traumatic and painful, leaving the patient in severe pain and gasping to breathe it can easily become fatal if not treated within thirty minutes, by inserting a tube or large bore needle in between the ribs, into the intercostal space allowing the air to escape. The worst case for him would have been to be re injured leading to a large air build up and yes with the dr on standby he could have performed the procedure however trust me the pain, suffering and procedure is horrible, a really nasty thing to experience. The spleen could have become lacerated resulting in severe internal bleeding leading to a potentially fatal outcome. His lung will heal quickly, his ribs will need four to six weeks minimum and his spleen will also heal well however this is a significant injury and he will need a fairly large time off, could be as long as multiple months depending on how he goes when returning to contact and he will have some physiological trauma by worrying about his spleen, lung when he returns that's only natural. He is an absolutely wonderful player and in my opinion should have been taken to hospital immediately for CT as only then can we truly know the true nature of injury. It's better to get to the hospital and find out it's only one small fracture than to have a player suffer and potentially need life saving treatment to try and win a footy game. With all the best intentions over head contact it's time the AFL makes a stand by saying players health comes first. Potentially the way the UFC has an independent medical professional to assess alongside the club doctor, someone who doesn't care about the results and only cares about the players best interests and overall health. Would love to hear you discuss this!

James Brayshaw Will always be a North Melbourne person, On Ya JB!!!!.. 🥰👍🦘💙🤍

You wouldn't know it from ANY Victorian media, but there was a top of the table clash this weekend (1st vs 3rd). I mean i know two teams on the periphery of the 8 is worth 40% of the discussion but maybe there's room for other games??

And my tiny spell worked bigly huge...north..winning

How they get sent off when they get a head kncok but sent out with a punctured lung

pittonet 2-4 his loses came against the only four clubs above the blues on the ladder at the time. they can both fit in.

Moore's knee into Petracca was not an "accident". It was a calculated hit to mame Dees best player. It was a dog act.

Hawks still Tanking??? Brown Envelope V Head 🗣️ *V* 📨 🟤 📨
