Compound fracture, they are saying on the tv

I haven't been watching the game, what was the fracture of?

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

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.

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.

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.

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

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
