Rocky's tough as nails. Any other player would have missed half the season with multiple broken ribs x2.

It will be super annoying if Brisbane don't put Beams in for surgery now and do when I have used my two trades.

I hope he does play for the rest of the season severely restricted so his average becomes s**t and he is affordable next season.
I'm trading him out for Ablett this week.
Ballsy move but I am feeling like Mavrick from Top Gun!
Thinking the same thing. Beams has been good but someone has to make way for Gaz. If Beams is hindered it makes the decision a little easier.
It's out of him, Fyfe, Pendles, Danger, J Steven, Parker or Wines. Don't really want to get rid of any of them, but it's the only way I can get Ablett in.
Apparently Beams should be right for Sat night.

Yeah but how well will he play with that shoulder injury now and will it only be a matter of "when" he gets mothballed for the rest of the season?
Hopefully makes it to Round 23.
Do you have Ablett?

From experience I know a sub luxation of the shoulder is painful for about 3-4 days after the incident but tends to feel as good as new a week or so later. Only risk is there's a higher chance of it happening again or a full dislocation. He's been playing through shoulder discomfort for a while now and it hasn't really affected his scores at all.
Agreed!
I'm just trying to justify trading in Ablett and Beams seems to be the only way of doing it.
That's how I feel when I'm making trades too, but I usually end up feeling like the Goose.
As long as Beams runs out on the field each week he is in my side

Dayne Beams' injured right shoulder is hanging by a thread, with the star Brisbane Lions' midfielder believed to be contemplating surgery before season's end.
After carrying the injury for a number of weeks, Beams subluxed the shoulder against Melbourne last Sunday, but is expected to play against North Melbourne at the Gabba on Saturday night.
When asked about it on Wednesday, the 25-year-old was putting on a brave face.
"It's obviously a little bit sore at the moment," Beams said.
"I'm getting it strapped and it's staying in place.
"I think at this stage of the year, most AFL players are carrying something. For me it's no different.
"I'm still fronting up and going out there to play and it's not worrying me out there, I don't think about it.
"It's a little bit sore, but I'm right to go."
When asked whether he would see the season out, Beams was more hesitant.
"We'll have to wait and see, I'm not too sure at the moment," he said.
"That'll be up to myself and the medical stuff, projecting forward in a few weeks.
"We'll look at it and make a call from there."

^ this, total madness that the protective gear is available but clubs don't use it.
I reckon Helmets in team colours would look cool. Make everyone wear them so we don't have to look at all the s**t haircuts and manbuns anymore.
I believe in 10 years time with all the soccer Mums bullshit mentality that is making our kids spoilt little Mummy's boysI reckon Helmets in team colours would look cool. Make everyone wear them so we don't have to look at all the s**t haircuts and manbuns anymore.
turn to other less contact sports it will happen. Duty of care etc with concussion will make this a reality.
Flashing LED's on the helmet when player is out of his zone due to new congestion rules the new norm too?
Yeah you should try what I'm smoking, Ha, ha.

At least it still wouldn't have descended to the depths of the garbage transgendered yank game with their players wearing more armour than a tank battalion.
