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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
