Well hopefully recovers well and hes fit to go for the preseason. Back into the fray for 2013. A decent uncovering of talent in Tom. Needs judicious polishing but the ability is there.

Good luck Tom

anywhere between 6 weeks to 3 months depending on the injury. He was attended to quickly and that will minimise the injury.

k-i-m..... recovery isnt the same as fully fit

Id suspect him to be back at the office doing light sessions in 2 months.

Depends on detail.....may be only a matter of week(s).

Any doctors in the house that can tell us the sort of recovery time for this injury?

He's gonna be fit to take on Reiwoldt this week, right? :wacko:

Surely Frawley would go to Riewoldt as usual anyway, wouldn't he?

Regardless of the fact that he would be handy, Tom wouldn't really be matching up on an influential key forward this week anyway would he? Am I forgetting anybody from the Tiges that can change a game from CHF? (Other than Miller of course). Frawley to show the AFL world how over-rated JR is as usual. Smaller defenders chasing, harassing and hopefully smashing their running/small forwards.

Tom's likely direct opponent would have been...........?

Don't think he'd be travelling back by car if he had a pneumothorax (collapsed lung) requiring a chest tube, or if he had a significant haemothorax (bleeding around the lung) requiring a chest tube. Sometimes the air or blood can be aspirated (drawn out into a syringe) and a tube isn't required. The report in the paper talks of "suspected" collapsed lung - we don't know what the condition is, really...

I'm not a doctor Jaded but I've heard that it's not as bad as first thought. A week or two perhaps.

In the meantime, Troy Davis was on the verge of selection a couple of weeks ago and, though his form has lapsed a bit at Casey, I think it's time for him to get a run.

Yep 1-2 weeks according to this http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/140214/default.aspx

Meanwhile, WTF does the club insist on treating us like morons?

We all know Jurrah is not permanently 2-4 weeks away with what was a twisted ankle of some sort. Bloody Mitch Clark will be back sooner at this rate.

Just admit he won't be available until after the hearing.

You may not be right with this.

It seems whenever Jurrah gets injured it takes him twice as long as most to recover.

Also I do not understand why the FD would consider the NT thing a reason to leave him out.

Can you explain why please?

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
