Very important player to have in your team to win a flag

....right, so hes going to Richmond...

 

I'm naming him Maynot until he does.

Wasn’t it a cyst a month or so ago? Now fluid, fingers crossed. Did he do full training at the camp?

The fluid is a result of the arthroscopic surgery to remove the cyst. It’s pretty common to get after a ‘clean out’. Hopefully they drain the fluid or he may be on some anti inflammatory meds to relieve the fluid build up. He has to stay off it for a week though

I don't think May had an arthroscope. The bandage on his leg is below the knee and around the back of the leg and the article mentions some fluid in the wound. Hopefully the wound settles down and there's no more nerve discomfort, if that's the case it's probably a better result than fiddling around in the knee joint itself.

Joel Smith not kicking on is right foot might be a club directive just to be a bit more cautious with recent wounds to avoid a similar complication.

 


PAAAARK me another High Priced DUD!!

Bulltish. Its not Common at all, anti inflams should have been order of the day from day 1 

And if administered then more trouble envisaged !!

I've had several arthroscopies on my knees and on one occasion i started to walk to early and my knee filled with fluid, it took quite a while and several drainings and injections of cortisone before it was ok again. It's not just a case of using an anti inflammatory you have to establish what the cause of the inflammation is and use the correct solution.

I finally went to a rheumatologist and he sorted it, the other doctors didn't establish what the the inflammation was caused by, he did.

that is correct. If fluid continues to build, it may develop into a Baker's Cyst, which is usually a sign of something aggravating the knee joint - patella, ligament, cyst

Quite the expert, aren’t you.

These fluid cysts develop,  apparently because of an underlying issue in the area.

I think you are on the money MFM. I have had a bakers cyst in each knee. I was told by the orthopedic guru that are the caused by the knee creating fluid to help with another problem. But we are all guessing because we know so little about the real problem.

Exactly, I was reading about the bursa, and saw that often, other irritations can trigger the issue.

He did the full session on the Friday and bits and pieces on the Sunday. Told me his leg/knee was fine but that is now over a week ago and no doubt something flared up. He is as fit as he has been ever so reckon a minor hiccup. ( I hope)

On the 4/12/19, in another thread you posted Gawn as captain, MAY as vice captain and Harmes as deputy vice capain as your leadership group for 2020.

Now May is a high priced DUD.

Really.

Just been to see the Doc to get the results of an MRI I had on my knee on Friday and I appear to have a Gaglion (?) cyst, It's mainly fluid, that needs draining.  It's pressing on a nerve in my knee and causing me a lot of discomfort but it's not a big issue.

It will take a week or so to settle down and I guess the same rule applies to Steven.

 

I stopped balancing my half empty stubbies on my knees, and that fixed the problem in no time.....

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
