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: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
