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.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
