Ed Curnow of Carlton will be sidelined for a month as a result of a shoulder injury incurred after he was tackled by a St. Kilda player on Monday night. The fact that it was the shoulder absolves the tackler of any guilt.

Yet Patrick Dangerfield's "concussion" has magically been repaired and he's playing this weekend.

Truth is stranger than fiction?

It's a different kettle of fish when it comes to the head. And fair enough.

Strange though, that Jonathan Brown's face can get smashed to pieces in what was, like Trengove's, an accident as a result of normal play, yet nobody in that instance was held accountable or found to be negligent. (nor should they have been by the way - I'm obviously just another frustrated footy fan outraged at this disgraceful Trengove decision).
