Harmes reported as compound fracture...

 

Means bone is sticking out. He'll be out for a good 6 weeks. Great.

Little finger LH

 

Might not be a compound fracture, reporting on this stuff is notoriously bad. Could just cracked in a few places clearly in need of surgery. 

If it’s easy to pin it could be pretty quick, if it’s really a messy job it might be more like 6

That will be 2 weeks, I reckon.


Obviously just a jarred leg for JKH which is good not so good is Harmes breaking his finger.

I think little finger.  Compound fracture means the bone has broken the skin I believe, so I'd say minimum one month for a small bone to heal.  Plates these days can help though.

So how does may look? 

He didnt get a touch for a very long time into the game. Hasn't done anything that I would consider noteworthy.

Note: Not bagging him out. It's JL2.

At least he hasn't stuck out for all the wrong reasons.

Hello Oscar McDonald.

Good point. The media hasn't exactly been covering itself in glory the past few years.

 

Anyone watching the Casey game know who #47 was ? They mistaken him for Pruess in a clip at half time.

Looks huge & had a fair bit of ink if that helps lol

Did this last year as well. Disappointing to have not improved upon this so far

FMD lads, what team DOESNT do this when there are no viable options... do you want perfection with every play?

No. Compound dislocation means  'dislocated bone'  has broken thru the skin.

Compound fracture means a  'broken bone'  has broken thru the skin.

 

His could be either,  if it has gone thru.

Has barely been near it. I expect him to have a similar year to Lever last year (minus the injury). I expect it will take time for him to gel with the other defenders and learn when to attack and leave his man etc. but I expect after a month or so he'll start doing some real damage and being an important cog for our finals run.

Might be ok up the ground but Marty Hore stinks deep

Stick him on a wing and put Fritsch down there. Easy.


If it was a compound fracture would the doctor try and put the bone back in on the sideline? That’s what he tried, hence I assumed it was a dislocation at first. I did google the following though.

What is the Recovery Period for Compound Fractures of the Finger Bones Postsurgery?

The recovery period for Compound Fractures of the Finger Bones depends on the complexity of the injury and to what extent has the tissue and bones been damaged. If it is a minor fracture and the injury is mild then the patient may return to normal activities within a span of 6 to 8 weeks. If the finger bone fracture is complex and the injury is deep and complex then the recovery period may take three to four months before the patient can gradually return to full function of the fingers.

Umps not giving us much

 

Amazingly when Harmes went to the bench the trainer seemed to be really pulling at the finger.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
