He had several concussion episodes in the 18 months before the brick incident, which was in 2017 preseason.

 

 On a side note, just read that Paddy McCartin has been put on the LTI list and still can't train.  Really sad for him.

 So while it is disappointing to lose Salem today I'm glad the club is being cautious, especially with his history.

Concussion symptoms come and go.  He may have been fine a few days ago but not today.

Even if he hadn't fully recovered by selection time, I reckon the club hoped he would be good by game time.

 Either way we did the right thing to wait till the last minute and to pull him out when found to not be ok. 

I hope McCartin retires. It seems negligent if someone doesnt ask him to pull the pin. 

KK one more away from retiring too surely.

Better hurry up and get to the ground folks. Only 20 minutes until the first bounce and there's only 90, 95 thousand seats left.

Looks empty. 

Minus 2 of the usuals today as I’m overseas. Still watching tho.

Bizarre. 9 days as well. Surely it wasn't just a "wait and see how you wake up oj game day"? If he was still showing symptoms after 6-7 days it's a given he isn't playing. The FD is a joke. 

Ever heard of giving a player every chance to play?

[Diamond_Jim 12,539]

Preuss or Lewis in I could understand but .

 

[whatwhat say what 22,697]

our disposal is, as ever, atrocious

[P-man 13,366]

Sweet Jesus, Jack Riewoldt is commentating. 

[layzie 33,752]

Anything less than bang on skill today and we're kaput 

[old dee 23,781]

I was contemplating which game to go to today when I heard the news on radio changed direction and now at Willy. Weather not too bad so far considering we are taking about this ground. I thought I would gain more watching a few of the injured coming back. 

[whatwhat say what 22,697]

we haven't had it forward yet, which is a bit ominous

[whatwhat say what 22,697]

my god brayshaw is so slow

[layzie 33,752]

Very ominous feeling 

[Jaded No More 68,867]

Getting destroyed so far. Have we hit a target by foot yet?

[P-man 13,366]

We are inside 50!

[Jaded No More 68,867]

So lucky they can’t kick 

[P-man 13,366]

I’m done with Stretch.

We got away with two HTBs then. Umps might be on our side today.

[—coach— 3,496]

3 inside 50s three horrendous kicks straight to opposition

And the worst skills in the history of the world... MFC!

[Jaded No More 68,867]

What have we done to improve our clear issues this year? Because it seems we are just bringing in poor user after poor user

both sides awful so far tbh

[Cards13 9,117]

How many weeks in a row do we have to watch the same Cr ap fwd 50 entries/turn overs... 

[FireInTheBennelly 4,072]

Why wasn't that 50?

[Jaded No More 68,867]

FMD they look in a different league. If they could kick it would be game over already. 

[layzie 33,752]

Melbourne, I understand the rationale behind this but we CANNOT play the kick-mark game. Our only hope is to move it quick, if there's turnovers doing that so be it. Rather that than a 10 second mark and long kick to the opposition

Seriously we have scored nothing after 15 minutes. What is happening there

[Sir Why You Little 36,979]

Serious Question 

Do MFC Players learn anything at training?

this is on repeat since Round 1....
