    At the 3/4 time break the physio & doctor? were working on him the whole time, checking him with a stethoscope etc. so that's no surprise

    If this is true, it's a shame for a young player who from all reports was progressing well at Casey.

    Luckily, a punctured lung can be a pretty straight forward issue and he should be back playing soon.

    I think i'll bring one to the G next home game ...getting too freaky for me.

    Being the Melbourne "Demons", surely we must have a few practicing wiccans out there. Come on guys, get a circle going and cast a protection spell or something! :huh:

    I've had a punctured lung before. Nothing too serious, though there's varying levels of "punctured". Mine fixed itself and the doctors weren't at any stage particularly concerned. I kept asking if I needed medication and was assured it heals itself. :wacko:

    that sucks. but i think its often a fast healing injury if its not too bad.

    Shame, he played well last week!

    Missen is exercising this club - but we actually need someone else to exorcise us!

    We seriously cannot take a trick injury-wise.

    Yes....usually straightforward but remember Ricky Petterd who had a rare one that was immediately life threatening and only salvaged by timely medical intervention.

    Hoping for a full and rapid recovery.

    Petterd's problem was a cyst that allowed air into the chest cavity and not back into the lung. This is markedly different to Harmes' issue which would be as a result of a collision.

    What sort of impact caused it, if you don't mind me asking Lamashtu?

    I remember Petterd was in a pretty serious state when he punctured a lung a few years ago.

  • Quote

    What caused the puncture? In other words, did he also get a broken rib (a common cause of punctured lungs)? If so, I suspect the rib damage might keep him out of the game longer than the lung puncture. Either way, I hope he recovers quickly.

    I'll get my mum and her friends on the job right away.

    Tom Mcdonald missed a week with a punctured lung in 2012.

    All the best Harmesy, hope you get back to full health quickly and get out on the field playing again soon

    I think Ricky had a burst cyst in the lung that wasn't allowing air to exhale, it was life threatening at the time. The doctor had to actually puncture his lung with a needle to let air out. A different situation I think.

    Bang on, it was a burst cyst.

    He was just lucky the club doctor correctly identified it at the time.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
