I just had a look at the injury list and am a little frightened by who is available to play:

Howes Lever Petty

Lindsey Turner McDonald

Langford Steele Windsor

Culley Picket (L) Kozi

JVR Mihocek Fritsch

Gawn Langdon Sparrow

Tholstrup Chandler Sharp ???

A few of these guys are lucky to get a game (which is part of footy), and a few a still developing and need game time...but it is a bit of a worry

Something more going on with Harry Petty. If it was concussion they would just say so.

Hope he is ok.

Just gathering more information

Concussion is complex, especially delayed concussion.

Join you in wishing him well

Melbourne GM of AFL Football Performance Alan Richardson also spoke on Harrison Petty's situation.

"Harrison left the field during the third quarter of our clash with the Lions,” Richardson said.

"We’re currently gathering further information and once it comes to hand, we will provide an update."

Shane McAdam (Achilles), Tom Campbell (neck) and Jack Viney (Achilles) all continue to work through their respective rehab programs.

Was it Leigh Montagna (or one of the other hosts) in one of those analysis shows remarking to his co-host (I forget they're all the same)... That Petty happened to go off after his second howler of a kick.

Seemed to be fishing for a reaction that didn't arrive, then just moved on

It's really odd to leave him off the list

Shane Mcadam has gone from 2-3 weeks to TBC.

was exactly what i saw first too, he and TC should be encouraged to do the team thing, theres not many teams with MSD picks at this stage,

eagles via dev rob, port x2 dogs via darcy, saints carried over we could have picks 4 and 6/7 which gives us heaps of options,

AJ not listed as TBC. Moved well rehabbing before the flush run today. Let's see if he trains fully tomorrow. Casey for Saturday hopefully.

Riley Beveridge and Cal Twomey on Gettable now confirming that Tom Campbell is now considering retirement and a decision could be made in the coming weeks.

Thats really sad if true but understandable, being in a neck brace for that long it must have been a really scary injury.

I hope he stays around the club as he’s an awesome bloke and great mentor for our boys. Our VFL program especially will be significantly worse for it, TC was huge last year and I think we saw what will happen without a big powerful ruck at VFL level last weekend. All the best to TC and his family.

What is the go with Trent Rivers? How has this turned into an 7-8 week injury, and why so much hush hush. Bloke played State of Origin and then seemingly was out of favour, now has a mystery knee injury

state of origin has proved to be a blow across the competition - sam taylor from gw$ will have missed half a season by the time he's considered fit to return, matt rowell's hand / finger injury is clearly significant, weitering's ribs clearly copped a significant knock, ah chee pulled up short, and others besides have clearly had issues as a result of the high intensity of the game

Wonder what’s happening with Petty?
