Harmes reported as compound fracture...

 

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

    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.

    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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
