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.

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?

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res
